Surely that is enough. If half are vaccinated and the vaccine works, then the half that have not been vaccinated cannot pass it on......or are we getting vaccinated for the sake of it and because MSM tells us we have to?

WHO and special covid centers all say. Need over 70% vaccinated or it won't come under control. Less than 50% never enough

the 61mln is the previous figure, based on 59mln AZ and 2mln sinovac.

Since then the government wants private hospitals to import 10mln.

For the last few days the government is in talks for import of up to 10mln pfizer.

 

That would be 81mln.

Unless they really think, that the locally made AZ will be a flop, barged with quality issues and delays.

 

Still, good try to safe face

They start ordering now. At the bottom of many long waiting delivery lists. 

This stupid guys should have ordered many months ago. 

Unless they pay real high price for the vaccines they will have to wait long long time. 

Also with less than 2000 new cases a day. Not one pharma Co will say you in urgent need of vaccines compared with most of the rest of the world. 

Maybe their Chinese friends will help but it's the worst vaccine of any on the market. Thousands got infected in Turkey and Chilly after getting the jab. 

Zero trust this vaccine. Just over 50% in Brasil. Turkey over 90. And Indonesia in the 70. It the worst result (50%) from any vaccine now available in the world. And thats what this stupid government talks about for weeks.  Pure corruption is going on here in the total vaccine program. That why it takes so so long to start mass vaccination! Also why Siam bioscience not allow any visitor. 

Now they say end June. Before it was begin May. And in few weeks it might be September 

I'm just waiting private hospitals to order get approval and import. Don't care to pay. Just want one of the top vaccines

Can't see the point of bars closed hotels and restaurants can't serve alcohol in Bangkok when it is available in shops and else where

Plus people can travel to other provinces and drink there

Looking at the Chinese New Year last week not many people travelled to Pattaya spending their money  as the Government hoped for 

Sure not many went to Pattaya last weekend. I just contacted my hotel in Jomtien, they said they still closed due to government order.

Bars, restaurants, massage places, and alcohol can be served since 2 weeks but hotels must stay closed.

So normal Pattaya stayed empty

Could've been worse .. if it had been iron he would've been cast an idiot ..

There was a video made of it, I saw the video. These rings are not made of aluminium but made real steel. Aluminium would have been very easy to cut at it pritty soft material. Here they used electric metal grinding wheel and then cut finally with metal pliers. Many men wear metal rings, the problem here was that the guy used to small one in diameter, once it gets to tied, swelling starts and then it mostly to late and must be cut off.

USE CORRECT SIZE!!!!!

I was thinning out a few year back, and considering all the sหเt I had hung on my bald friends over the years I thought I would try out one of the treatments. 
 

It definitely works. 
I forget what it was called but they scratch away at you head with a machine for about an hour a week. It is annoying but not painful. It uses electricity and they can turn up the power which you feel.

 

Then they rub this solution into your hair. 
 

And give you some to take home and apply daily. 
 

it definitively works, I haven’t done it for a couple of years since moving, but plan on giving it another crack soon. 
 

This sounds easier, so I hope it works. 
 

I never told my friends about it and continue with the bald jokes.

 

 

Where did you go for the treatment? Do you remeber the name of the clinic in Bangkok/ Or where?

Any Idea of the name of that treatment

When will they change their quoting to WHO figgers

PM 2.5 for WHO the real unhealthy air is when it at 25 and above  here 50 and Bangrak today at 83

Just terrible. 

That they stop spending all goverment money on army equipment and start investing in setting up green energy factories all over Thailand and let the farmers put all next to the road and cities must collect all. 

That is huge investment, I know, but the only way to solve this yearly returning problem.

GOVERMENT MUST STEP IN!!! FARMERS CANNOT DO THIS ON THEIR OWN

If migrants are all contained in camps, how did 152 Thais get the virus?

Do you really believe that migrant workers never ever interact with the rest of society?

 

Before they where locked up people came already in contact with them and these travelled around. That the main problem now 

1 hour ago, Dmaxdan said:

I agree, but in fairness the majority are migrant worker cases which had already been reported  yesterday. 

And these migrants all stay in camps who are sealed off since the start. 

So somewhere the 152 for total Thailand is not that bad. But yeah next 2 weeks that no will sure go up because all the traveling and mass gathering for Christmas and new year

The French lady over 99% she was really negative. But people forget the virus survives long time on surfaces also money. She stayed in quarantine hotel. Where also positive people will stay or stayed. She just might have touched a object or infected money. And then get infected few days later as it was on here clothes or so. That why desinfecting hands is even more important in these quarantine places 

Now it already a economic catastrophe. That stupid doctor has his salary on his account monthly. Millions lost their jobs and much much more will follow. Europe has second wave because opening to save the economy. Now the governments and medical specialists say we must learn to live with the virus. We now know already much more and have some medication that works pritty well end reduces much the deaths. Not one European country will close down fully again. They accept the covid, implement some safety rules, but business and economy must stay open to safe that. NO total lock down anymore.

Thailand is in worst economic crises for over 30 years. The worst country in total Asia. This army dictatorship does nothing to get it up again. Only spent all tax money on army equipment and more submarines.

Why only transferred dam. All these guy should be fired directly and go trial. ALL. If only transfered they just continue at that office 

When was first real wave even? 3000 cases from begin till today on 66 milj people. That is really peanuts. Even if count not fully correct and sure some more. But sure not many as otherwise we would have had much more deaths and bodies you can't get rid of that easily. For me this country is really ready to open fully. Just try keep bit distance and keep the masks
