The COVID-19 pandemic has caused major impacts all around the world, with its characteristics being highly contagious. The first case of COVID-19 was diagnosed in Wuhan, China in December 2019. Until July 2021 the situation in Thailand has only escalated with new daily cases being over 10,000 and is predicted to increase every day.Contrastingly, vaccines needto be imported to Thailand,causing multiple shortages and delaying the vaccination further. The aim of this research is to investigate the relationship between the number of people who have immunity against the coronavirus SARS‐CoV‐2 and achieving herd immunity in Bangkok and vicinities areas of Thailand. The research question of this investigation is  How is herd immunity in Thailand affected by the number of people who have had immunity against COVID-19 (either by vaccinated or has been infected by the coronavirus SARS‐CoV‐2) by surveying 300 people living in Bangkok and vicinities area and age between 17 and 90 years old? The method used to gather data in this investigation is via internet survey by google form. The survey contains three to five questions and is sent out randomly to 300 people. After receiving the data, it is analyzed into graphs, charts, etc. by using Google form. The result from this survey illustrates that 73.4% from 300 people are immune to the coronavirus SARS‐CoV‐2. To conclude, by assuming that the survey group represent the whole Bangkok and vicinity population, by January 2022 Bangkok and the vicinity area will achieve herd immunity successfully.
