In the mean time I've got a note from the Netherlands Embassy and same is also on their FB page. "Dutchmen outside the Netherlands, thus also those in Thailand, will need to apply to vaccine programs in the country they reside. the Netherlands Embassy is in close contact with Thai authorities. ... The expectation is that Thai private hospitals will also offer vaccination for COVID-19 (at a price to be announced). At this moment it is not possible though to say when this program will start. ..." The note ends with recommending a Bangkok Hospital webpage as very informative. www.bangkokhospital.com/en/content/know-well-before-getting-the-covid-19-vaccine3000 Baht a FB friend posted. For now only the Johnson vaccine gives 'full' protection with one jab. All others require two for the same result (with 10 weeks period in-between). The sinovac vaccine may require a third jab half a year after the second. 3000 Baht per jab?

I start to see interesting advertisements on facebook. Like "Welcome back to Bangkok, Quarantine in style into the heart of the city with Avani Atrium." "Spend your 8, 11 or 15 night quarantine period at Citadines Sukhumvit 8 Bangkok starting from THB 21,500 nett in partnership with Piyavate Hospital with the Limited Time Offer! *Airport pick-up, full-board with all meals, 24-hr medical assistance" If I were back in Europe such splendid offer would fill me with joy. no doubt.

PullmanG seems to have the best food. Anantara Riverside seems decent with a balcony. Rembrandt has a huge terrace room and of course room service there offers a wide choice. Doubt I'll be doing that till Dec however...too much work to do and ££££ to earn.

Sound advise, but some practical problems like how the heck I know I've been in close contact with a sicko an infected person for more than five minutes? "New daily high, 34 Covid death --- "Do not wait until you have symptoms. If you know you have been in close contact with an infected person for more than five minutes, go to a hospital right away, give your information and receive a test. If you test positive, you will be treated and saved," Dr. Apisamai Srirangson, a spokeswoman for the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration said." www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2114415/new-daily-high-34-covid-deaths

Since this is a sensitive subject we will make no mention of a possible COVID-19 case in some well-known family in Thailand. It may be pure rumour anyway.

Not sure what venal has to do with me and Soi 6, the only times I have been there in years has been for a cup of tea in the Queen Vic. And that has only happened this year, previously I avoided faux places. But it has worn in well and they serve the tea in builders mugs.
Perhaps he is confusing venal with venereal, wouldn't surprise me.

Thai government is not stuck in bureaucratic antics or paperwork, they show flexibility. BTW I guess I'll have to buy a smart phone to register "Foreigners face longer wait for jab ... "As I have said before, the Health Ministry plans to vaccinate Thais first. We will try our best to vaccinate Thais within two months, namely June and July, and then try to open foreign resident registration in August," Panruedee Manomaipiboon, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration's (BMA) Health Department director said. The Health Ministry will leave no one behind regardless of their nationality, she stressed. For registration, she insisted it should be done via the Mor Prom mobile application, to reduce the risk of infection." www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2115235/foreigners-face-longer-wait-for-jab

GOOD NEWS, once Thais are vaccinated foreigners will be next, ahead of homeless people, tramps and the like.

Surely the homeless, tramps and the like are going to be ahead of foreigners. In fact, I strongly suspect they're going to vaccinate soi dogs and hia long before they get around to filthy farang.
