I live in Honolulu. I don’t think sinovac is approved in the US. If you haven’t found the answer yet, I can ask my friend, she administers the vaccines. I’m sure you’d need insurance just for their documentation even if it’s free. We have a bunch of pop up vaccination sites here, I believe they also have a site at the airport.

Don't mention that you already got Sinopharm and youre good to go. You won't get turned down for a vax. Even non-citizens can get it in the states now.

Where is your transit? I know in some airports you can get vaccinated/boosters. Miami airport does shots even for non USA passport holders.

@Jennifer ***
don't you have to be vaccinated 14 days before your flight? Jennifer ****
@Danny *******
for USA? No, because I know people who have flown there just to get vaccinated- and done so in the Miami airport without leaving and flown out right after. Danny ********
@Jennifer ***
super...thanks for the infoDanny ********
Sinopharm or Sinovac not approved in some countries...do your research.

// Who is currently eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccine in Hawaii?
All Hawai‘i *residents* age 12 and above are eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine. The vaccine is not available for children age 11 and younger. However, more studies are underway and being reviewed to safely expand the eligibility for the vaccine.

OPThank you. I am aware of the Phuket and ASQ for the return trip in December. Just wondering if vaccines is only available for Honolulu residents only or any US passport holders, regardless of departure origin
Kathy ****************
You do have to have had your final vaccine 2 weeks prior to travel..
Kathy ****************
@K**
as far as I know any US citizen can get a vaccine any where in the US and it's free..

@Kathy ***************
that may not be true unless it changed recently. Every state is different and some require you to be a resident of the state. Like I said, that may have changed though since the US has more vaccines than people wanting to get it now but a few months ago that was the case.Kev ****
