It's not that Pfizer runs out exactly but there is some data suggesting that it may not be as protective after 4 months or more, especially when measured in terms of infection from the Delta variant.

However that's based mainly (as far as I know) on some data from Israel. Data from the UK on the other hand, shows it as maintaining a much better level of efficacy than the Israeli data.

The thing about efficacy figures is that they're dependent on time, location and the characteristics of the population segment being tested.

Efficacy figures from a different location, done at a different time and involving different groups of people, will give different results.

The bottom line for me is that even the Israeli figures, while showing lower efficacy against infection, showed the vaccine was still very effective at preventing serious illness, hospitalisation or death.

Having said that, various countries are moving towards giving 3rd booster doses so that's probably the way we're all going to go eventually.

Hospital was manic, so I decided against Vaccine Record today. I have a little card with my vaccine data anyway, so it isn't lost.

Open till 3pm or limited to 500 jabs?

I guess it was manic due catering to new age group (over 50)

Thanks

It was manic because they are dealing with 4 distinct vaccination groups today (hhinner has already mentioned) list to follow for Tapatalkers:
  • Mor Prom - Astra Zeneca
  • Mor Prachuap Prom - Sinovac
  • Hua Hin Municipality - Sinopharm
  • Walk-in - Sinovac (I think)
Then there was routine hospital business, and Mondays are always busy.

So back to my original question, has anybody else done it/successfully obtained one?
I’m hoping I’ll get mine on Monday- I’ll let you know if I do!!
And as promised they issued the certificate as a matter of routine - looks a little different than the one issued at HHH, but the information’s the same - and it was free!!Image

Purely FYI (nb NOT complaining!)

that list you typed is just blank on tapatalk(see screenshot)

So I looked it up online, thanks

It's weird how that happens

Anyway, I will go online whenever necessary or directed to, just feeding back

Any word on the 500 max?? I'm concerned that they have already finished by the sounds of the mob this morning!

Someone on here went at 1.30pm last week and said it was a breeze...

Also, do we already know about the next walk in day or has that not been announced yet? Image

Thanks for sharing
BUT if you who need to travel to a foreign country in the next three months and have completed two shots of Covid-19 vaccine, you can apply for a Certificate of Immunisation, otherwise known as the Covid Yellow Book.
I think it's worth getting, will probably save any hassle in destination countries

Safe travel, enjoy your trip, are you coming back via the Phuket sandbox?

As you register for Pfizer vaccine from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Ministry of Foreign Affairs Confirmed receipt of such vaccination to the hospital where you has registered. The hospital, Confirmed Pfizer Vaccination on 24/08/2021 from 08:30 am - 04:00 pm.

Seems a bit strange from Australia and does not mention any hospital. As I got Pfizer from Medpark, I did not confirm. has anyone else got such a mail?

Also the Email adresses of all recipients can be read.

I’ll enquire at the airport, but won’t hold my breath just in case.

No the Hua Hin Recharge Image
Well it’s a nice thought, but if not I’d prefer Phuket to Bangkok!!

Yes, if all those insecure Thai apps and websites have leaked user's email addresses already, prepare for a wave of phishing attacks using dodgy emails such as these. Don't click any links in them unless you know exactly what they are - its the easiest way to get malware on your computer.
