I tried this several times since BB posted(I'm sure it's the correct 'link' but.....)

Using a PC( not a mobile) when I enter my 13 digit code into the box, when I hit return or click the blue button below, nothing happens at all

I don't even get an error message

It's like the process isn't completed yet

Or the site is just faulty or not yet active?

Out of interest, has anyone contacted the Public Health Office about this?

TIA

When I posted about it not doing anything I looked at the actual html and there was no active script there yet. So only a preliminary display.
i kind of spotted that but wasnt clever enough to reach the correct conclusion that you did

The CCSA has approved shortening the period of the third dose, or booster dose, to tackle the COVID-19 Omicron variant, which is spreading across the world. The formula for the third dose is shown in the following graphic:

Whilst I approve of the decision, aren't we starting off on the back foot again because must of us will be overdue, or become overdue very quickly?

Be fair. In the table every given interval ends in "or more".

At the moment they seem to be concentrating on giving boosters to those who were given the Chinese vaccines.

If they wanted us to be fair, they shouldn't have used the phrase, "Shortening the period of the third dose, or booster dose."

BB, they keep changing the goalposts. I tried to get double Astrazeneca, but they refused and said I had to get Astra/ Pfizer or double Moderna, then Pfizer. I'll get my Moderna, but quite unhappy about being forced to get Pfizer as a booster. Pfizer has a bad rap in Singapore, where cases are in the increase even though almost the whole population has had at least 3 shots each, but all Pfizer.

Regardless of which vaccine or which booster or when you get it, you're still vulnerable to Covid-19 and its variants.

Evidence shows that you’re less vulnerable after a third booster than two alone.

Then why are almost all the victims of Omicron people who have been vaccinated 2 & 3 times?

What I said was people who receive the booster dose are less vulnerable - i.e. they are less likely to become seriously ill, I never mentioned anything about whether or not they are still susceptible to catching it!!

Because they are in the majority in many countries No vaccine is currently going to STOP any virus 100% However, the advantage of the vaccines is they significantly reduce mortality rates, regardless of strain.

I think we all know this, so I don't understand why some people feel the need to keep repeating it.

They are already here for the double Chinese vaccines. I think once they've cleared the backlog of the 'not so good' (I won't say crap this time :D ), they will move on to the others. However, that is only my assumption, not fact.

[Edit] We have to remember that as part of the Hua Hin Recharge, Hua Hin Municipality purchased a lot of Sinopharm jabs (at least 50,000 from memory). If my theory is correct, all of those people will be before the double AZers and AZ cocktails.

I've had 2 AZ jabs and tried and failed to register at BKK Hosp. and Sao Paolo for the booster. I guess my next step will be looking for alternatives in the Big Mango.

Aren't BCC helping with booster shots?

The country wants everybody vaccinated, I doubt they'll be too fussy where your first 2 jabs were done. I think it's just waiting a few weeks for them to get their ducks in a row here, and you'll be able to register locally. You've got a few weeks longer than many of us who accepted the cocktail anyway. I think patience could be key.
