Better statistics than for the general occurrence of blood clots in the population which is about 1:1,000

How do the stats compare to the chances of death or serious injury on a Thai road?

They need to have some perspective!

I wondered about that.......are they saying 30 in total....or an additional 30 above what might expected......if it is the former who the hell is kicking off about it and why?......if it is the latter then yes.......possibly need to worry.

Perhaps, the added cost is what you pay for a vaccine with no clotting 'issues', like Astrazeneca. 
 

Vaccine nationalism is ridiculous, that said, Germans who have access to both have been shunning AstraZeneca  and want pfizer. Ridiculous, sure, but you see it here on Thaivisa too.

Cheers.

There was always going to vaccine nationalism .......few governments are prepared to share vaccines until they feel they can allow excess quantities to be released.

You cannot make this stuff up. A medical hub of hubs with no vaccine? Is there a problem with how to decide how to make money on this? Is there a press photo of the AZ vaccine?

Do they have the az vaccine.??

And there ladies and gentlemen we have the reason.

No opportunity really to turn a buck for various middlemen...

22 billion baht for a submarine that is essentially useless from day one. But, no money for effective vaccines. What does that tell us?

imo this all results in the early initial missteps that occurred during trials with age group non representation and a measuring conflict - a rush to production resulted in a few mistakes that have proven very costly even though subsequent trialing went well..

God forbid you are correct.....however........ if this turns out to be the case then the real question is........how do the Tories spin it is be someone else' fault?

Submarines are staggeringly more important than the health of one's own citizens?
