The information below is from the US CDC. AZ falls into the first category, and Sinovac into the second:
Some people may have received a COVID-19 vaccine that is not currently authorized in the United States. No data are available on the safety or efficacy of receiving a COVID-19 vaccine currently authorized in the United States after receipt of a non-FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccine. However, in some circumstances people who received a COVID-19 vaccine not currently authorized in the United States may be offered revaccination with an FDA-authorized vaccine:
COVID-19 vaccines not authorized by FDA but listed for emergency use by the World Health Organization (WHO):
- People who have received all recommended doses of a COVID-19 vaccine that has been listed for emergency use by WHO do not need any additional doses with an FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccine.
- People who have not received all the recommended doses of a COVID-19 vaccine listed for emergency use by WHO may be offered a complete FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccine series.
COVID-19 vaccines neither authorized by FDA nor listed for emergency use by WHO:
- People who received all or some of the recommended doses of a COVID-19 vaccine that is neither authorized by FDA nor listed for emergency use by WHO may be offered a complete FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccine series.
The minimum interval between the last dose of a non-FDA authorized vaccine or a WHO-listed vaccine and an FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccine is 28 days. Only people who have received all recommended doses of an FDA-authorized or WHO-listed COVID-19 vaccine are considered fully vaccinated for the purpose of public health guidance.

After this they can do limited travel for the next three days according to the Samui Sealed Route Model.
If you're actually doing it, you can call it a "model". If all you're doing is imagining it, "fantasy" is a more accurate term.

Bangkok, Krabi and Phang Nga- aim to achieve the target in July.
From another article today:
"[The Bangkok Governor] said, once all centers are up and running, they will be able to inoculate between 38,000 and 50,000 people a day which, when combined with the vaccination capacity of 126 hospitals in Bangkok, means seven to eight million people will receive their first doses of the vaccine by the end of August."

The two parks have been linked for well over ten years already - they're just talking about improvements to the link (since it was originally built with no access to what was then the cigarette factory, but will now be the forest park). But I'm glad the PM approves, that will bring great happiness to the people...

So the issue isn't that WHO hasn't approved the vaccine, it's just that Thailand is still "waiting for an official document". I see.

"Dr Satit Pitutaecha, assistant governor to the Ministry of Public Health in an interview with The Standard explained that the initial 1.7 million doses for May will not be ready in time because the ministry had requested a change from the original production schedule."
I don't even understand this excuse. How does changing the production schedule - presumably to speed it up - result in delaying the initial tranche of vaccine?

"Meanwhile, The Phuket News was today informed of a foreigner who was registered through the ‘Phuket Must Win’ web portal to receive a vaccine and sent an official appointment to receive his first vaccination injection today, only to be turned away at the vaccination centre this morning and told that foreigners will not receive any vaccination injections until next month."

Just don't call it a walk-in facility.

So no bars until August
Quite possible, but that's actually a separate and distinct issue from the state of emergency - bars have gone through repeated periods of opening and closure since the decree was first implemented last year.

Does he live in Thailand? How would he know, is that what someone is telling him, some subjective or even politically motivated bias perhaps?
The "expert" lives in Thailand and is personally involved in Thailand's Covid response, at least according to the linked article:
"Professor Vip Viprakasit from Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital at Mahidol University called the rising infections a "failure of the winner".
Speaking in his personal capacity, he noted that Thailand was hailed for its impressive performance during the first wave of the coronavirus last year.
"However we kind of relaxed in terms of self-control, not just in policy but on a country-wide scale," the professor, who volunteers with the government's Covid-19 effort, told The Straits Times. "People became relaxed on personal hygiene measures, like wearing masks, using alcohol, and checking in. They had parties."

Curiously, AFAIK, there was no mention made at this afternoon's EN news briefing on the status of, or plans for, the promised EN language version of the Mor Prom app.
From another report:
"Meanwhile, prior to the announcement during the daily press briefing, Mr Natapanu tweeted to explain that a mobile app to facilitate registrations will now not be developed."

Walk-in vs on-site: wonder how these terms stack up in Thai (my Thai isn't up to it) because the news isn't - despite what some posters think - published solely for western eyes.
The Thai press is using the English words, though they distinguish between "on-site registration" and "walk-in vaccination", which is a bit clearer.

last but not least : surface contamination... is real.
There is certainly a theoretical possibility for Covid to be spread via surface contamination, but hundreds of people contracting it from the same turnstile beggars belief.

The part I don't understand is where it says that "creditors requested for a condition that Thai Airways will operate under government support as before entering the rehabilitation process" - hasn't this already been ruled out?

Members have done their best to help, but it's impossible to give you useful information unless you tell us which country's passport you're applying for.

“The registration for foreigners is now open for all kinds of businesses. You can register to get vaccinated right now,” he said.
All kinds of businesses, but not all kinds of foreigners. Hmm

Thailand seems to have taken the term "vaccine passport" a bit too literally in terms of the size and shape of the document, and just put a new label on a certificate that has already existed for decades.

Their target will be bedridden people who can't get out to have a test.
So you can't stick a swab up the nose of someone in bed?
That's what I was wondering: if a handler with a dog can get to the bedside, why not a technician with a swab? This seems like a strange use-case for sniffer dogs.

I did it last week with no problem - submitted Tuesday morning and received the approval Thursday evening (after 5pm). As Joe said, if you can see the site, it's up - but that doesn't mean that any individual person will have success using it.

Vaccination appointments for June now meet the supply of vaccines allocated for the month and other applicants will have to wait until July to be inoculated.
If all of the vaccine doses for June are already spoken for, why do they keep talking about opening walk-in vaccination centers during the same timeframe? Or does the term "walk-in" have a different meaning to them?
Vaccine hesitancy grows ahead of Thailand's mass inoculation rollout
in Thailand News
Posted
The hesitancy isn't totally surprising, since the government has been loudly talking about the chance of side effects rather than educating people about how uncommon (and usually minor) those effects are.
A few months back, they said they would only give shots in hospitals with resuscitation facilities in case people collapsed after being vaccinated (that has since gone by the wayside). Then, they said that pricing on vaccines for private hospitals was still in flux because the hospitals had to meet with insurance companies to get policies covering treatment for side effects included in the price for the inoculation. A few days ago, they announced how much people would be paid if they lost a limb as a result of the shot, and how much their families would get if they died.
I'm sure someone thought this was all somehow reassuring, but they were wrong.
