ORIGINAL POSTER

A Swedish friend of mine is asking, where he can get an AstraZeneca shot, as he is over 70 years. He tried Bang Sue Station, but gave up, when he saw the masses of people there. He tried to register online, but never got a reply.

Anybody any idea, where my friend can turn to?

TLDR : Answer Summary

A Swedish expat is seeking information on where to obtain an AstraZeneca vaccine in Thailand, as he is over 70 years old. His previous attempts at Bang Sue Station were unsuccessful due to large crowds, and he did not receive a response from online registration. Responses suggest he check with his embassy for assistance, as some embassies are helping vulnerable citizens with vaccination. Others have successfully registered online for vaccinations and recommend a proper registration procedure. Some individuals have also mentioned that older friends received vaccinations at BNH Hospital.

He's doing something wrong. I registered on the 60+ website, got an email with a date and time, and a confirmation SMS the night before. Turned up at Bang Sue, from walking in to walking out about one hour 15 minutes, which included the 30 mins observation time after you've had the shot. No good turning up, they only do walk-ins for 75+. He's doing it wrong. I made three new farang friends whilst I was there, so there's a few doing it!

Best to check with his embassy, lots of embassies are sorting vaccinations out for there elderly and vunerable citizens.

But its first come first served and he needs to register with embassy.

Does my Thai friend need to hire an agency for his visa application to Sweden, and what are the processes involved?
