    The authorities both in the US and UK are recommending the half dose.  Apparently the Moderna jab contains significantly more mRNA than Pfizer, so a full dose as a booster is more likely to produce side effects

    It's moderna vaccine guidelines  on the pamphlet! We don't even know the dose amount yet being given until we arrive to the hospital. And what will they do with the other half dose. I will take a friend. Should be 50ml and booster dose 25ml.  The Moderna  CEO said they are already have live  trials for the delta vaccine currently running now.

    Ah yes, white farang ThaiVisa members deeming what is and isn’t racist for Africans in Thailand. LMAO. Please, have several seats. How many threads have I read on this forum from all of you crying when an article slightly mentions “Farang” and you all simultaneously write thousands of butthurt posts about leaving thailand and never coming back. But in this case, hey colored people - suck it up! Oh please. I’m an African American who was raised in Thailand from 13 years old (I’m 34 now) and you all know damn well if there was article that stated:

     

    The media in their headline as well as immigration on a vinyl board called it a party for "pale" people. 
     

    The patrons were from the United Kingdom, Norway, and Germany. 
     

    They had been servicing the pale skinned community for the last month. 


    you all would be up here making a big hissy fit as you always do when you experience a slice of “thai racism”. Check your hypocrisy. The article could’ve easily written African and called it a day. It is necessary to call out ignorance no matter where we are in the world. Thankfully there are forward thinking Thais who do just this, because I have seen the change from 1998 to now in Thailand. 

     

    Pale people meaning Thais that dont ever let the sun see their skin!

    Problem is that people of my generation remember it being the accepted term for referring to African looking people. Referring to them as "black" was considered racist. There've been many PC terms used over the years, I honestly don't know what the current one is. 

    "White" person has never changed, as indeed it shouldn't. 

    I worked in a schools for 15 years in South London  with over 70 spoken languages the student were called  black or with their country code of origin.

    If I would of called a Jamician student the coloured boy they would of been offended and and laughed at. Coulored is an Americian term and used more these the group many ethical group together. An example is Canada is a mosaic of enrhicity and America is a melting pot. 

    Calling black is not racist in the UK. End of day you don't need to use black or coloured in the sentence. They can just say Ugandan Nigerian Kenyan Libyan...... Somalian Cameroon
