Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
When is one thing, what is another? I think those who have had Astra may want something else as a booster per the above CNN/UK article.
We'll have to see what's on the menu when the time comes I guess.

Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
I thought we'd been told we were getting Pfizer or Moderna as boosters.

Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
Hasn't the government ordered millions of doses of Pfizer for booster shots?
Pfizer is also on offer for new vaccine applicants, either as both shots or as second shot after first shot of AZ.

Yes, that's true. I think about your average Thai who may not know what's going on and the home source emphasis, for reasons we can't elaborate on, is local made Astra. If money, or ass kissing is involved, I don't trust their ethics at all.

Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
I don't think the home source is a problem. AZ still have back orders of millions of doses to other countries, and those other countries may not be able to afford the much more expensive alternatives (every other vaccine).PeteC wrote:Yes, that's true.

Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
Not in Thailand I know, but I had my "Booster Jab" recently and despite having the AZ Jab for the first two, I was told that Pfizer was the preferred "Booster" - regardless of the previous jabs. I was told Pfizer as a Booster was more resilient than others.hhinner wrote: ↑Fri Dec 03, 2021 11:35 pmI don't think the home source is a problem.

I can vouch for a couple of reported side-effects in that it certainly added to fatigue. That said, we all suffer different symptoms.

Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
It’s being widely reported that both Pfizer and Moderna offer the best protection when used as booster jabspharvey wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 1:06 amNot in Thailand I know, but I had my "Booster Jab" recently and despite having the AZ Jab for the first two, I was told that Pfizer was the preferred "Booster" - regardless of the previous jabs.

Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
Is this event at Bluport tomorrow boosters or just 1st/2nd vax?
There was a separate post/announcement which I saw (but can't find now) that indicated boosters were permitted 4 weeks after 2nd shot(which I find hard to believe)
TIA

Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
Thanks. Thought as much. Some chatter on FB about it being boosters. I think it's still too early for anyone to get a booster yet, first jabs where in July I think?? so 2nd ones late August?hhinner wrote:First & 2nd. Walk-in only 1st.
Maybe the seven diseases could be due as early as Dec but most people will be due a booster Jan to Mar I reckon

Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
According to a HHH FB post today they are starting to call SV/SV vaccine receivers for boosters next week (14th). The published list of names includes foreigners. In this case the booster will be AZ.
Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
My son had a double dose of Sinopharm. He has registered for his booster today with HHH.

Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
^^ Is that the Google docs form linked on HHH FB page? Looks like PKK public health are checking the numbers of sinopharmers in the province. I couldn't see what vaccine they're aiming to give as booster.
Re: Booster Vaccines - Covid 19
They haven't named the booster yet, just registering people at the moment.

"If you got a Johnson & Johnson vaccine, get a booster shot after 2 months"
Above is coming from the government of the State of California. I haven't read it anywhere else but I would think it's standard operating procedure everywhere for that vaccine. Pfizer and Moderna are 6 months. It also stated that the booster should be a different vaccine than the original set, as we already know.
