I seen an item on BBC news last night that Indonesia is about to start their vaccine program. The current plan is to only vaccinate those under 60.

Apparently the trials on the Chinese vaccine were only conducted on 18 - 59 year olds.

On saying that it should be borne in mind that China will also manufacture the Pfizer vaccine.

China manufacturing the Pfizer vaccine - AS IF !!! you are under the influence mate. The Yanks would never allow it. Now go back to sleep - you are just in a dream delusion. NB China ccp has purchased the Pfizer vax (small amount) obviously to look after the ccp only - they don't trust their own Sinovac.

Says it all really .... Vaccines from 7/11 anyone?

You'd have to be brave to accept the Sinovac. Not peer reviewed, abbreviated phase testing. The danger is growing two heads, four eyes and the willy dropping off. They know where they can stick their vax !!

Thailand to launch first moon mission

By THE NATION

 

 

Thailand will build a spacecraft within seven years with a budget of around Bt3 billion, according to the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation.

 

Minister Anek Laothamatas announced on Thursday that Thailand will produce high-tech satellites in four years, before advancing to build a spaceship with a weight of 300 kilograms for a mission to the moon.

 

The ship will be powered by a xenon ion thruster, the same propulsion method used by Nasa for interplanetary space missions. The spacecraft will travel at 11 kilometres per hour to the moon, before slowing to enter lunar orbit at 2kph.

 

Thailand’s first lunar mission will be officially announced in January, Anek said.

With the bizarre usual Thai practice of upping the price of something when demand decreases,Thai tarts increasing their charges hardly seems the way to go.  I doubt whether J M Keynes would approve.

Love tarts (any tarts) occasionally. Scrumptious especially if the price is right. I do have minimum requirements though. They need to be awake hahahahahh

It also has a secret microphone and video camera so they can check in on you to make sure you are safe and best of all streams your entire stay to a "secure" server.

Sweden has abt 90.000 reported infected and abt 5000 deaths and you can trust their numbers 100% .... and unfortunately their biggest mistake was not to consider protecting ther retirement facilities at the beginning ..... This on a Population of more than 10 million people . It is bad but I would not consider it a total disaster... my opionion .

Granted - not a total disaster - unless you happen to be one of the elderly in the retirement homes Hmmmm !

Like the Thai Government focussing all their people’s attention on Covid diverting their attention away from more important issues in Thailand.
I never drive on the roads in Thailand and have a partner of over 6 years so going bare back isn’t a problem.

No red herrings what ever that means, according to Thai Government figures if the figures are to be believed the chances if being killed or injured in an accident are significantly greater than contracting Covid19. 
 

Oh dear  you don't understand. A red herring is something thrown into an argument to divert attention away from the topic at hand. PS stay off the roads in Thailand and you won't come to grief. And never go bare backed with anyone.

I think more chance of being injured/killed in a road accident in Thailand and there is no vaccine for that.

Maybe so -but never forget the thousands of graves that we dug in Italy not so long ago for a little virus. Stick to the subject and no red herrings please cobba.

Not to mention the establishment would be closed down and the whole program abolished and the entire country would go into lockdown for another six months. 

Well unless we have a vaccine soon it will come down to 'survival of the fittest'. Anyone willing to take the risk? And if you read about the Swedish model - It's been a total disaster.

Vaccine will serve nothing, you are miss informed.

Fact is that vaccine will not be efficient more than 3 month, because people who get infected and develop own defensive system, after 3 month, these defensive system disappears.

Also, the infected people tested right now show that the virus is going down in power (a lot), we can compare it to a flu.

Now, it becomes really ridiculous to be afraid of such a virus and to impose so many restrictions (which more is at such costs) and to destabilize the peace of the populations as much, to condemn them to become poor in the general panic. an execrable management and influenced by obviously very powerful lobbies and which do not care of the lives of the people, they never give one pound for anybody poor people.
Just open up the borders, let the little people live and work and put the gangsters in jail who blackmail them with fear. We know what they can do to gorge themselves on money.

Multiple boosters I'm hearing. One shot won't do it for long.

Who is going to pay for the tests, it’s £150 a test in the U.K. and the accuracy on the test depends who is doing it 

Sounds like BS. It's free in most countries. The country receiving tourists should bear the costs

very simple answer 

 

make them all wear hazmat suits and charge them huge amounts of money for the pleasure   win win 

 

solved

Oh look we are all tired of this Covid-19. Every country needs to do this.

1. Test everyone before they board a plane (if passing the test - go to 2)

2. Test everyone immediately when they land (pass test - go to 3  - else be given a high protection mask and gloves to wear when outside your room.

3. Test daily at a testing station (on going for 14 days) - if all ok just be a regular tourist . If test fails high protection mask and gloves.

Of course this is very simplified and some goon will shoot holes through it. If so, you come up with an interim solution.

Sure its safe - But how many want to be stuck in their hotel room form 2 weeks. Even the Chinese won't come if they can't ravage the buffet every meal time. 

And under the circumstances it cuts both ways. No one would dream of ravaging a Chinese. They should stay away. Since Thailand is so safe, there are so many gents that would donate their left nut to get in. So let them in !!
