There is a problem getting much vaccine from anywhere because global production capacity is insufficient. This article predicts that it will take 4.6 years to vaccinate the world at the present rate:
Not to mention that CP has a financial stake in the Sino-vaccine production. The only reason it's approved.

Why is no one in government calling for emergency measures to expedite vaccination approval, acquisition, allocation and distribution? The vaccines are available NOW and their are far more reliable options available than AstraZeneca with questionable record on accuracy of information regarding efficacy and reliability. The Sino-vaccine is an absolute joke. J&J has a global 66% efficacy it seems like their are better options.

The best way to keep your numbers of infected low, is to charge high rates for tests to decrease the likely hood actual legitimate tests per-capita rates. Ipso facto a low infection rate.

To what countries can you currently travel with a «government certified "Vaccine Passport"»
It's about coming back to Bkk. There are many countries I can travel to for my work now. I just can't return to Bkk without the quarantine process every time. A Thai vaccine passport should make residents returning easier.

And yet the Baht stays resilient???

I hope that comes with a government certified "Vaccine Passport" so I can resume traveling for work!

Mortality rates are not the only danger this pandemic has. Their are many long term side effects that have been reported by survivors of the virus.
Many of the hardest hit countries have seen the virus overwhelming the hospital system. That leads to a disruption in basic health services for all. Countries without nationalized health care and free and readily available testing have no idea the numbers of actual infected due to the cost of not only testing but also seeking treatment.

if they could have before, they would have
Thailand has had many Manufacturing and tech jobs in the past. Many left after the big flood (Western Digital, Scandisk) and more left after the last coup when companies could not get insurance on their European and North American staff. Thailand has lost a lot because of this and the increased value of the THB.

Without tourists the majority of bars will not be able to remain open. Most are not paying rent at the moment. If the bars are empty and they have to go back to paying exorbitant rents they won't last long.

I was in Korea about 10 days ago. Now I have a cold or flu like symptoms. Cough, phlegm, and runny nose. I want to get tested for Corona but Samitivej wants 10000thb for a test that has no treatment. No way Thai's are paying that. Internet searching doesn't give any other testing locations.

All seems so stupid.
From anywhere go to MRT, Bts, then Airport link. You may not be a newbie but you made a newbie mistake..
I have a heavy work bag, an overnight bag, and a briefcase. The rail sucks if you have to take baggage with you.

I was going for work and I have a heavy work bag and an overnighter and a briefcase. It's a pain to lug it around. Plus in the 5 plus years, I have lived here I have never had this problem.

I live in the Asoke area. Instead of Sukhumvit or Rama IX he went into the city center. I know their is a way from Rama III but I am not as sure about exact directions.

I'm not a Nubie. I know exactly how to get to the airport in multi-directions. I gave it 3 hours before my flight to get to the airport. He went into the city center, not the direction I told him to. He was taking me on a ride at the point I realized it was too late to get out I was stuck in gridlock and after 90 min hadn't made it to the expressway. I have never overstayed my visa though so I and with the ever-changing whims of the government, I don't want it in my passport.

I live in Bkk so I'm not a nubie. Today I got a taxi to go to the airport. I told the taxi what route to take and he went the wrong way (he was on the phone). We subsequently got stuck in traffic and I missed my flight. 7000 THB later to change flights and hotel bookings, as there were no open seats available on the later flight. My visa expires today so on top of the 7000THB I'll have the overstay stamp in my passport. I will complain to the Taxi company, however, can I make a police report to give to immigration? It's not a matter of the 500tbhb overstay charge it's about the overstay stamp in my passport.

This is about baht buses, not motorbikes.
It's interesting every time there is a baht bus thread people post get a private vehicle.
When there is news (sadly very often) of bike accidents and deaths, funny thing is people don't post ... idiots! ... should have used the baht buses and they'd be alive!
Get the point?
If you actually read my post you will realize that I only proffered the motorbike as an alternative to not being exposed to things that might offend your delicate sensibilities. Otherwise unenforced laws or illegalities in any major city in Thailand my drive you mad.

I really wonder how many people on this forum live here, spend a lot of time here, or are just occasional visitors? You realize you are talking about Thailand? Do you realize how many things you come into contact with daily in the city areas of this country that are illegal? Do you think you whinging on a forum changes it or has the potential to? Get over your selves and rent a motorbike if you are so sensitive.

The Sino vax had less that an 50% efficacy against the original virus. You now expect people to be believe this?
