    The family in the Philippines got the full mix.

    Daughter, working in a care profession, got AstraZeneca, very early.
    Son, working on an airport, got Biontec/Pfizer recently.

    Parents got Sputnik and Sinovac. Not great, but Sputnik is better than nothing. Not sure about Sinovac.

    I am getting my second shot AstraZeneca this week. Wife in a month. The time between first and second shot is long at 3 months. AZ usually has the bigger side effects on the first shot. We both were quite tired for a few days, nothing dramatic.

    Got my second jab an hour ago.

    Pfizer, following AZ back in March.

    Woohoo!

    Going home for good in a couple of weeks, inshallah.

    Double Woohoo!

    Out of interest, were you kept back for 30 minutes for monitoring, and did you get medical assistance?

    Or was this after the thirty minute period?

    Or was there no monitoring period?

    There is a suggested 15 minutes waiting period for allergic reactions. I skipped a little of it. It was not allergic, just a general reaction. Similar on the first shot. Not as strong then but lasted a little longer. No medical assistance needed.

    Here in the sandpit they keep you for 30 minutes.

    Did my first dose (AstraZeneca) yesterday at JungCeylon, Patong. Appointment was for 13.00, though reading on other media, that's pretty much irrelevant. Anway, arrived at about 12.30, and there were crowds seated in the ground floor of what is a multi storey car park. Went to a desk, producing the paperwork that I'd been told to bring, and was given a new piece of paper. Then told to take a seat with the 'crowds'. Essentially, socially distanced chairs in files of five. They appeared to be processing batches of 10, with this number being given paper lottery style tickets and directed into the main building. I guess that I was inside after about an hour.

    More socially distanced chairs, waiting to start the process proper. Eventually my 'batch' called forward to differing desks where blood pressure/pulse was taken, before joining a snake like queue, airport immigration style, to a row of desks where administrators were inputting details before handing out another piece of paper. A further snake like line to the final 'admin' desks, then I was directed to an actual nurse dispencing the vaccines. Couple of minutes there, then to a 'rest' area which had another desk where my passport was handed over and some stickers put on the back of it.

    I went to sit down for 30 minutes, but after about 5 noticed that some of my 'batch' had disappeared, so walked out myself. Having texted her, M'Sahib was outside, and I was on my way home. The whole exercise took probably 2 hours. The website is still showing my second dose in just under 12 weeks, though anticipate this will be reduced to 8 per a recent announcement.

    15 minutes for me after the first one - unmonitored after the second one, and I'd had no problem before so I just left.

    The wife gets Pfizer tomorrow morning. No-one here seems to want J&J or AZ.

    Still nothing for me.
    I went to the walk-in centre today, having learned that they would have stock today. I went before opening time and there were 12 people ahead of me. Despite my polite smile (inside a mask) I was refused. They explained it was appointments only. I showed them the app on my phone which showed no appointments available and asked how I can get an appointment. Apparently I can't.
    After the 12 had gone in and the gf and I were the only people waiting in a car park full of empty chairs I tried again, pointing out their complete lack of customers, but they would not be moved. They told me to come back another day and refused to suggest which day.
    TIT.

    Got my second shot yesterday. AZ for the first, Moderna for the second. Seems a lot of good research coming out that mixing the vaccines is really effective.

    Just a heads up on this. Under the current terms of the "Phuket Sandbox" where no quarantine is required for fully vaccinated visitors, applicants for Certificates of Entry with mixed doses are being refused. Obviously that might change in the future, however that's the status at the moment.

    ...SD and I received our first (AZ) vaccinations at the Bangkok train station this past week after being told that no falang could be given the injection and only Thais over 75 were allowed entry...SD worked his knowledge of Thai admin sludge: he insisted to a sympathetic supervisor that ads for the shots didn't mention the foreigner exclusion and that, as my helper, he was also allowed a vaccination (we were entered into computer under the "Minister's Quota")...no reaction after half an hour...we left feeling slightly better off than when we arrived...

    Really? I didn't read that in this article, but if it that is true, I think it is a really dumb rule as many millions of Canadians are told now to mix with an Mrna vaccine for their second dose as it is more effective than two shots of AZ. So I hope they change that because that will leave many people out, not just in Canada.

    There's no rhyme or reason to it all.

    No clarification = No tourists.


    Tourism is finished till at least 2022 imho.

    Ya for sure. Thailand isn't on my radar for another few years. I wish that more people could get the vaccine there though.

    Good for you both, do you know when you may get the second vaccine?

    The inmates have taken over the asylum, so it should be a while unfortunately.

    There are a few Facebook groups that are swamped with questions about the process to use the Sandbox, and there are many instances of people providing feedback on their experiences. The mixed dose vaccination reason for refusal of CoE is common.
