I wish people would give their source of information. Got a feeling it may have come from the local gossipers or a scam business.

Could well be a real service operating under try radar. People here happily to part with cash to get a western vaccine instead of Chinese ones..

But come.on, 100USD for soemthing that costs less than 20 bucks for both doses?

I wonder how many people follow these offers and get scammed..

Mind you saying that a few years back I saw a post where tourists to some swanky five star hotel here were paying 100USD for Banh Mi thinking it was some rare super exclusive dish. Fills and their money are easily separated

If it is legal, the $100 price may not be unreasonable.   Consider that the US government pays Pfizer $19.50 per dose but of course they are buying hundreds of millions of doses.  The US then pays other parties for administration; $16.94 for the first dose and $28.39 for the second dose.  That's $84.33 for two doses so you would have to consider that a baseline price.

The big danger would be chain of custody.  Has the product ever gone over the required -60 C temperature in transport?

Everyone is getting it free so why bother, some countries are reporting particles in the vac bottles and others don't like certain vac's who reportedly have very low protection after a certain times so there is so much info out there the last thing anyone needs is a possibly fake bottle or badly treated like you said, stick with the local option.

Anyone foolish enough to pay out $100 for something that cost nothing, nada, zero, zilch … well just let me say I have whatever it is you want to buy (if I don't have it ,I'll find it) just send me a private message and I'll get you hooked up.

I'm sure 300,000,000 USD will buy you a lot of enthusiasm - if you know what I mean.

I have had 2 doses but need more. I have heard about Israel and cases soaring and want to be able to get regular boosters so I am safe and can save more lives by being safe.

Rick Hayward

I can't say whether or not it is a scam, but I can say that my wife and I have both received two shots and paid for nothing. I have never heard of anyone having to pay. You can go on the National Registry website: https://tiemchungcovid19.gov.vn/portal/search and register. I know the shots there are free.

AndyHCMC

Everyone here is getting shots if they live in an area that has doses they are free.

It is highly unlikely that anyone is selling vaccines legit so register.
If you have had 2 then unless you have had an anti body test and a doctor says you need more it's also unlikely you will get another.

You having a vac does not stop you or anyone else from getting covid, it does lessen the effects IF you get covid, so the best way to "save lives" is to register a friend for the vaccine.
