Hi this comes into other advice categories

I have had 2 Pfizer jabs back in England and I’m looking for a booster I’m 58 and can’t seem to find a 3 Rd jab anywhere. They all seem to be mixed combos to get a 3rd. I had my second one 4 months ago.

Thanks in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user, who has received two doses of the Pfizer vaccine in the UK and is looking for a booster shot in Thailand, is having difficulty finding one. Commenters provide information about the availability of free vaccination sites in Thailand, vaccine eligibility depending on the time since the last shot, and specific locations such as hospitals in Bangkok where additional doses can be administered.

2 Pfizer jabs requires a Pfizer or Moderna booster.

I had 2 Pfizer in UK July and August 2021. Booked through Royal British Legion Thailand working with British trade commerce Thailand and got 3rd Pfizer in December after returning to Thailand in November. Was free in Banrak Hospital BKK. Have also checked and the vaccine certificate can be used when back in UK to update NHS App to show 3rd vaccine

Second 4 months ago makes it hard. With Pfizer or Moderna have to wait 6 months. I got my 3. one Moderna though last Thursday. 4-5 months after my second. Jomtien Hospital. Had to sign a paper that was my responsibilities that took it before 6 months.

In other countries you get the same already after 3 months, without signing papers.

You probably wont get a booster shot for another 2 months yet (not the free ones). I went and got mine (all pzier) at asiatique and they check that its been at least six months since your last shot. This doesnt apply if you have had the sinovac and other dodgy ones

Where are you now? There are free vaccine sites everywhere in Thailand. If you've have 2 pfizer shots then the booster is Pfizer automatically.

They are boosting the Sinovac and sinofarm vaccines with 3rd Pfizer one. As I have 2 Pfizer ones we are not a priority

I’m in Pattaya but the pre requisite is a mix of others and I can’t register because I have 2 Pfizer’s

@Paul *******
you can pay and get moderna if you want . There is no rule against having moderna booster for Pfizer vaccine .

@Paul *******
You just have to go in person. The pre Reqs are mostly because very few Thais had 2 Pfizer's. If you had 2 pfizer shots, you will get pfizer.
