Everything is open. Completely everything. Bars, clubs, museums. It's semi sweidsh-semi typical russian "I don't give a ff" People mostly went thru covid and have a relaxing life. Half of Moscow and Saint Pete are with antibodies. Why would u make a jab on top of ur antibodies? As for phase 3 results u either trust it or not. Russia said it's ok to go so u either trust it or choose other options. What more u need to make up ur mind? Boris approval? Not gonna happen. And by the way, telling that Russians jabs are no good is a utter nonsense. Russians and soviets are very fast when u need to deal with epidemics. If u wonder just check how they dealt with anthrax leaks during soviet times. Is it good jab? Not worse than the others. In my book. Just about everything there is a reasonable summary of the position you're in. However you should also understand that peer reviewed data is important not only for us but for approval by western agencies and WHO for it to be approved and respected worldwide. Surely thats the best outcome for this. Looking at the current data, it looks impressive and could be a great asset to the world to conquer the virus but to get to that stage data data data. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is "state" propaganda? I don't know such thing because governmental censorship is a crime in Russia (according to its constitution article 29.5).

I find your post absurd. Nobody has said those things about any of the jabs. I agree that it's great that there is such a variety of options though sadly currently almost nothing to inject in Thailand. Compare to HIV. Not even one vaccine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinovac is only 80% effective against death Making claims like this does Sputniks reputation no good at all. There is no data on your claim that it is 100% effective at preventing hospitalization or death. No vaccine has claimed that. Stick to a more realistic estimate would be far better. Say it highly effective is reasonable. Because otherwise its just plain false the CDC reports on Moderna and Pfizer don"t even claim that with real world data.

Blumpie Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 I'd take Sputnik over that garbage from China. I mean really, what is that stuff? Nobody has a real clue because it's a bit of a secret. With Sputnik it has been reviewed and seems quite good. Look, Thailand dropped the ball, we can all agree on that by and large but this is the best bet. They had better take it. The quicker they get vaccinated the quicker life can get back to normal, so to speak. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're getting confused between effectiveness against any symptoms with effectiveness against hospitalisation and death. The Western vaccines are indeed 100% effective against the latter.

Also, how effective is it going to be with just 1 dose? Looks like Thailand are going to take a long time before the majority of the population is fully inoculated ie. 2 Jabs.. https://www.dw.com/en/is-sputnik-v-vaccine-safe/a-57219314 No doubt it's a case of cheap vaccines for the serfs, AZ for the Elite 1%... Almost correct... Almost. Only that somehow the chinese vaccines being one of the most expensive out there, and AZ the cheapest of all. More AZ seemingly not doing too well with side effects, many European countries shying away from it. Meanwhile Sputnik V said to be a good alternative to both chinese and AZ. Said to cost approx half the chinese (Sputnik is 10$) and safer/less reported issues than AZ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webfact Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Thai PM says Russia agrees to sell Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccine to Thailand เจ้าหน้าที่เตรียมเข็มฉีดวัคซีน Russia has agreed to sell its Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccine to Thailand, under a government-to-government deal, Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha said in his Facebook post on Thursday. He said the Russian Foreign Ministry has informed its Thai counterpart that President Vladimir Putin had approved the sale of the vaccine, as requested by the Thai government, citing the historically friendly relationship between the two countries. The prime minister did not say how many doses of the Russian vaccine will be procured, but they will be part of the additional 35 million doses to be purchased by Thailand, in addition to China’s Sinovac and AstraZeneca, which was jointly developed by the UK and Sweden.

jossthaifarang Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Not my words, but read and make up your own mind, lack of Russian transparency is a worry. Either way regardless of efficacy, there is some degree of risk taking every one of these vaccines. That said, I guess we all need to decide which is worse the actual virus or the minuscule chance that there may be complications related to taking the vaccine. Its a hard choice to make when there are so many choices, but realistically those of us living in this country only have 3 choices so far and I dont think that is going to change any time soon.. https://euobserver.com/world/151483 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
