PHUKET: Medical personnel from the Phuket Provincial Health Office (PPHO) and Vachira Phuket Hospital yesterday (Feb 25) held a practice session for vaccinating the public for COVID-19.

 

The rehearsal was held late yesterday afternoon at the Lan Muang Khao open area at Vachira hospital, which has been set up specifically for the vaccine rollout.

 

Present to oversee the procedures to be observed while administering vaccines was Dr Pitakpol Bunyamalik, an Inspector General from the Ministry of Public Health Region 11 office, which is responsible for the seven Upper Southern Thailand provinces, including Phuket.

Really  , medical personnel need practice to give vaccinations doesn't give me much confidence in their abilities or was it just to be seen on tv etc .

Some people may say practice makes perfect but just not true for this country otherwise there would not be a road death toll over 20,000 every year .

They are still practicing.

Lack of training caused a minor problem in Australia which was turned to a major disaster!!
