rooster59 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Paphamon Arayasukawat BANGKOK (NNT) - Another batch of 800,000 doses of Sinovac vaccine has arrived in Thailand on Saturday and would be distributed to medical personnel and at-risk groups nationwide. Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said the remaining 1 million doses of the country’s first order of 2 million shots from China-based Sinovac Biotech would arrive as scheduled next month. He said the ministry planned to buy more than 5 million doses of vaccine from Sinovac. The order was under discussion between the government and the company. Mr. Anutin added that the ministry had never hampered efforts by the private sector to import vaccines or the registration of shots by other manufacturers. The ministry stands ready to facilitate the private sector in importing the vaccines to serve people since the move would ease the burden of the government. -- © Copyright NNT 2021-03-21 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is so confused that he can not remember what was said before or done. Must never have occurred then.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heng Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 With Japan not opening up, and China supposedly set to allow tourists who have been Sinovacced..... looks like skiing in Harbin this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post internationalism Posted March 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2021 as of yesterday only 55k vax were given (that out of 200k imported the last month). I understand, that they keep it for out brakes, but than in bang kaen, with 350 infected and 100k population they plan only 6k jabs. they suppose to give it immediately to health workers, and jab them as soon as the second batch arrives. Looks, like they are unable to organise more than several thousand per day. With planned 330k per day from July I do suspect it will be failure 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dendijk Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202103/1218231.shtml WHO did not approve it yet but it is already approved in Thailand. Most other vaccins seem to take awhile to get approval, which private hospitals are desperately waiting for to get started with their own purchases.

Well ! there,s an about turn. " ease burden of the Government " explains it well me thinks, Another 800,000 Doses of Chinese stuff has landed on Thai soil, so it should only take about 4 Months to administer it based on the performance of the first 200,000 Doses. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forza2002 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) In the UK PM Boris Johnson says Saturday was a record day for UK coronavirus vaccinations, with 873,784 people jabbed, pretty impressive https://www.bbc.com/news/live/uk-56474181 I wonder how many months it will take Thailand to administer the latest batch of 800K CP vaccines from China? Perhaps the Govt should start giving the jabs at 7/11's & Lotus's, that way it would be done in no time at all given all the branches throughout Thailand.. Start to finish deal from CP group... Special promotion, spend 500 baht or more and get a free injection.. Edited March 21, 2021 by Forza2002 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 800k Thai gotwould last just over a day. Shows what can be done by countries where there is the political and social will. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been roughly 6 weeks since J&J filed for approval from the Thai government. The typically slow US FDA approved the vaccine ~3.5 weeks after filing for regulatory approval. IIRC the data from JnJ is much tighter than that for both AZ's and Sinovac's. But after 6 weeks no word yet from the Thai government on when JnJ's might be approved. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No rush please, they have all they want from their friends in China and C.P. is making sure of that to fill its coffers and stake in the company.

Yes because the developed world has snapped up all the grouse and left the developing world in the lurch as usual. Sure Thailand made some bad choices and cp influence has potentially denied them access to something different but outside of Thailand the rest of the developing world is pretty much fnckd. The US has got most of the vaccine and those ctnnts don't even want to take it. And if Thailand's distribution was even a quarter of the amazing things the UK was doing what would they do on Thursday when they run out of vaccine? Easy to ramp up when you have all the access Even developed nations aren't sharing what chance the world's disadvantaged? https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-03-05/italy-eu-block-250000-astrazeneca-doses-to-australia/13218348 https://www.unaids.org/en/resources/presscentre/featurestories/2021/march/20210310_covid19-vaccines Edited March 22, 2021 by starky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an example look at how this graph from the Financial Times shows that Thailand's neighbors have vastly outperformed Thailand wrt vaccination rates - https://ig.ft.com/coronavirus-vaccine-tracker/?areas=gbr&areas=isr&areas=usa&areas=eue&cumulative=1&populationAdjusted=1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
