Please don't mind my repeating question,

I late for vaccine payment, only booking and didn't make payment.

Any information about next booking or payment or any update news??

PS, first payment dead line was July 13 and I was too late.

I get what you are trying to say, but let me 'moderate': snooze is a harsh term. Stuff happens! Thx.

perfect terminology methinks, very small amounts of good vaccine available and you have to grab it when you have opportunity

Best way for anyone here to get vaccinated is to sign up with the hospitals but stocks are limited, costs are fixed so its first come first serve.

Embassies are now stepping in, but again they warn stocks very limited.

My wifes company arranged for her luckily but they dont know when they can get second dose yet.

Goverment here is useless and the whole vaccination program has been a failure. But wasnt expected to be any different. Read interesting article i think in Febuary in Nikkei Index where they estimated Thailand to reach herd immunity by July 2022, whilst goverment keeps saying October 2021.

Thailand now is at 4.9 % so dont think they will meet there target.

Too much red tape and too many goverment ministers who dont want to lose face by admitting they were wrong so dont take active steps to correct the situation.

Just read Bangkok post and Anutin the health ministers statement

I think Benjamin is hinting at was it through a private hospital or somewhere else.
