As part of yesterday's easing of restrictions announcement, one of the requirements to be allowed to dine in restaurants was the 'Green Card'. Does anybody know what the Green Card is, or how to get one please?
I've read some people saying it is your vaccination card, and yes, I agree, mine is green. However Mrs BB has a pink card, and I noticed people getting jabbed alongside me last Monday had blue cards.
Not that I will be queuing to get into a restaurant on Wednesday, but as one of the lucky 8% it would be nice to have the opportunity if I wanted to.

In the general rules there is no requirement of being vaccinated to enter a restaurant. What is true now?

Has Mrs BB received both shots ?
I could be wrong but, from what I understood, you get the so called green card when fully vaccinated

Mine from HHH is in black and white on lilac paper. I also only had one shot so far.
As you say, maybe they give you a proper card after the second shot?

That's what I understood, when fully vaccinated you get the green one, my husband has a pink/lilac paper also for now, we will see when he gets his 2nd shot end September

IMO, that should be the case too.
Having had one injection only am I any less risk than someone with none? Maybe fractionally...
I'm not a medical person but how much less of a risk is someone who's had 1 dose of Sinovac? Ten percent maybe? I'm sure studies have been done somewhere I've not looked as of writing this

Ignore me I'm talking rubbish!
Much higher level of protection after one shot(60%) and 40-50% less likely to infect others
So a cert for 1 shot should have some meaning I now believe

Thank you. How did you get that please, because I never got one after my 2nd shot?
Mrs BB is about 2 weeks from her 2nd shot. But seeing your green card dispels the myth on social media that it is the appointment card.

Received it by mail from bkk hospital a week after vaccination, printed it and had several copies plastified

Thank you. Oh wow, that sounds a bit efficient. I'm just wondering now if they have my address. If I wrote it, it could end up anywhere
Reading your response again, was it received by mail or e-mail?
I'll be taking my son for his first jab tomorrow, so I'll print a copy of yours, and ask.

Did you get the J&J shot from BKK Hospital? If so, how much and are there age restrictions?

I'm sorry. Where does that article mention Sinovac? It's about Pfizer and AZ.

Correct. I realised that seconds after I posted it and was going to edit it but the phone rang!
So yes, not apples with apples
I will try to find stats for 1 SV shot
