And now many of these anti-vaxers who are seriously ill or died have mostly regretted not taking the shot.

They lie on their hospital bed pleading with doctors to give them the vaccine. "Sorry. It's too late!"

1) "I'm not putting that poison shit in my arm. The vaccine is killing more people than Corona."

2) " I've had to have the vaccine because I need to travel abroad"

Here's the doozy. Not content with him surviving the vaccine...

3) "Yeah, but what I'm really worried about is what happens 4 or 5 years down the line"

Given that most of us are now 60+ your mortality rate is bound to increase.

Point is these idiots will never give up OR admit they were wrong. It will be like "My friend got knocked down and killed. I blame the vaccine for altering his concentration!!" :banghead:
Ah, but the secret 5G chip implanted by the vaccine needle will help make sure the emergency response team is there in seconds! :guns:

For those who need governmental proof of vaccination to travel to certain countries, Hua Hin Hospital is issuing a Certificate of Vaccination booklet for people who have been vaccinated at their facility.

After you receive both doses, go to the ground floor on the left side Hospital Reception. Speak to the hospital staff and tell them what you want and they will contact the proper department to help in the process. Bring your paper showing both doses are done, your passport and 50 baht for the fee. Wait one week for the hospital to call you to pick up the book.

If you received a vaccination from another facility you should contact them directly for their process to get the booklet.

If you have any questions, please go to Hua Hin Hospital personally and ask.
Merci, Joelle!

Speak for yourself. I can't even get a sniff of a first shot, wanted or not, due to being the wrong colour and born in the 70s. :duck:

Registered locally but ... no Sinovac for me, and no travelling to Bangkok! Happy to wait out the storm in the isolated boonies.

What's the latest word on vaccines other than Sinovac getting to HH/CA?

No idea mate, best ask someone that lives there, or one of the private hospitals.

All those who received a first dose of Sinovac have been promised a 2nd dose of AZ , 3-4 weeks after the first jab. Obviously we’ll have to wait and see what transpires, but for once I’m reasonably optimistic.

In and out within 1 hour with the second shot booked for the end of October. No dramas :naughty: and good social distancing protocols in place. Shots given in groups of 7.

No road blocks on outbound/inbound journeys(although I did have the travel letter supplied by BCC) and a breeze getting in and out of Bangers. :cheers:

1 thing of note is that they had my Hua Hin queue number in their system so I guess thats a :thumb: for Thai IT :duck:
I'd initially turned down their offer as I was reluctant to travel into BKK, the epicentre, and all the photos that's been posted of undistanced crowds at vaccination centres.

However, after reading your post, I contacted them yesterday asking if I can reverse my decision. I got a reply this morning saying I'm back on the list and will be contacted with an appointment date.

A wise decision I think given the current travel restrictions and efficacy against the Delta variant if you've had Sinovac/pharm.

If your e-mails came from Jina you will find her to be most helpful.

Parking is a breeze with plenty of on site spaces,Google maps took me straight there :cheers:
