Bangkok Hospital Pattaya has opened Pfizer vaccine appointments to foreign residents who are at least 40 years old, are diagnosed with one of the specified health conditions, or who are at least 12 weeks pregnant. Expats must also have no prior Covid-19 vaccinations. […]

Try here, the article said you didn't have to belong to the post:

"...those 60 and above, pregnant women, and those with certain health conditions, can go to thailandintervac.com for more information on registration and participating hospitals."

Yeah, if you live in Bangkok, Khon Khaen or Chonburi...but anywhere in the country and you are shit out of luck.

Looks like there is only one American Legion Post and it is at Ubon Ratchathani in eastern Thailand.  Retired Navy and I guess I could use my retired ID or my VA ID if needed.  Normally based in Bangkok, but currently up north in Phayao yellow zone.

I am a retired US Navy veteran living in Pattaya. After reading the artical, i contacted the Pattaya VFW. I was informed that first i should register on the Bangkok Pattaya website, than go to the Hospital tommorow. However, everthing i have read thus far mentioned that you must have an appointment prior. So after talking to the VFW rep, i then called the Bangkok Pattaya Hospital, they informed me that they were currently only vaccinating expats over the age of 60 ( im a young whipper snapper at 59 yo!). I then informed the representative on the phone that i was a US Navy veteran and had read in the News that US Veterans where going to be vaccinated. She informed me that she new nothing of this, basically told me that i should register on the hospitals website, and wait to be contacted. When i registered on the BPH website, it didnt ask my citizenship nor anything about my military background. So basically, im confused. I was hoping that you could provide some clarity and further information on this matter? Thanks, by the way love your show and website!

When looking at pharmaceuticalfraud.com, which uses NaturalNews as its main source, have a look at this too:

https://www.isdglobal.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/20200620-ISDG-NaturalNews-Briefing-V4.pdf

 

This report presents the findings of an extensive investigation into a network of domains connected to NaturalNews, a US-based commercial enterprise and website promoting conspiracy theories and disinformation. Using a combination of data analysis and open source intelligence (OSINT), this study examines the scale and nature of the NaturalNews network, including its reach on Facebook, its connections to and promotion of far-right and extremist ideology and its activities in relation to COVID-19 and the protests associated with the killing of George Floyd. This investigation shines a light on the endurance
of coordinated disinformation networks on and off social media platforms, as well as the challenges for and remaining limitations of technological companies’ responses to such threats.

Thanks for your service, those who've served in the IWC of the US. Make sure you've done a thorough vetting of what you're receiving in the future. God bless.

Are you honestly duped by the website you quote and a victim of disinformation too? Or do you link to the website, knowing full well that you're misleading people?

Veering rather off-topic, @Bob20, interesting or not. No further off-topic would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hold on KC, I react to post #42494 which links to a known disinformation far-right and conspiracy theory site. That's okay? But pointing it out isn't?

Yes, maybe reacting to a prior post, but please be fair, Bob, both posters and moderators need to take the broader, good-for-the-topic view, no matter how relevant you may view your reactions.

Just fair play and with the topic title always as the guiding line.

Thanks

As I said, KC, I react to post #42494 which links to a known disinformation far-right and conspiracy theory site. That's not okay, nor fair. Pointing it out is essential.

Fair would be if you apply it to the other poster too, and then no reaction from me was even needed.

OK, if that's what you feel is fair to the rest of the viewing public, feel free to post. My overriding concern, as always, is the good of the forum generally.

Thanks for not answering my question and just spouting more disinformation sites. You seem to be sucking it up, even though you could quickly find out it's trash.

NBC is a disinformation site? Lmao, ok Bob.

You're being a Pfizer shill and you're mad and having a tantrum that the mods didn't fall for your censorship demands.

I absolutely agree with you 🙏 But then shouldn't you be intervening in the offending post, instead of in the post exposing it as flawed (with evidence)?

Still no answer...

But you don't read either. Because I did not ask for censorship. I objected to be censored (or rather curtailed) for exposing you, whilst you quote a known misinformation site.

As stated in other topics, you don't find true research and facts from the internet. Nowadays it contains more disinformation than truths. But if you can find the disinformation sites and quote them, then you could also go one step further and find out that it's disinformation.

I don't mind that you have a different opinion. But that's why I wondered if you were duped or intentionally quote disinformation to readers here?

KC wants fair. And that's a fair question that you avoided to answer at each opportunity.

I'll make KC happy and leave it at that.

Don't worry, @Bob20, the other guy has just received his due deserts . . . 4 days of them!
