Pattaya City health officers administer flu shots to the elderly and bedridden in Soi Korphai Community.

With the whole world focused on the COVID-19 pandemic, little is said about the regular immunization shots which must be administered to the public annually or regularly.

The Pattaya City health officers haven’t ignored their responsibilities and are still making their rounds to various communities in Pattaya to administer influenza immunisation shots to the elderly and the bedridden who are not able to go to the hospital on their own.



For those who are still able, they can get their immunisation shots at the local public hospitals.

On June 8, Mrs. Na-anya Jantrakat, an expert professional nurse at Pattaya City Hall, together with her team of health officers, with the assistance of Wirat Joyjinda, head of the Soi Korphai community, organized flu immunization vaccinations for the elderly and bedridden in the neighborhood.

Anyone wishing to get their immunization shots can apply at Pattaya City Hospital on working days from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. For information call Tel. 038-103900 ext. 1126.

Various groups got their flu shots on that day.
