Just because it has not been registered yet does not mean that a black market batch may have been brought in.  Maybe Embassies have their own supply of it and have used it on their own folks.  Easy to bring it in via attache.  

Not so. Pfizer has to be kept in special freezers of minus 70 ! That is the reason it is so difficult to transport, stock and keep.

Doctors in Eu can’t use it for this reason. Only certain hospitals that have the material.

Dude, please. Did you not read my posts about Pfizer transport cooler. If not read a little info.

Pfizer developed a thermal shipper, which they call a "cool box," for the trip. It's about the size of a carry-on suitcase

According to the CDC "the vaccine may be stored in the refrigerator between 2°C and 8°C ... for up to 120 hours (5 days)."  No special cold temperatures required.  An ice pack would do.  And 5 days is plenty of time to fly the vaccine in from the USA.

Yeah, except that you are in quarantine first for 14 days.

News just came out that Pfizer didnt need the cold storage as previously known. Approval was pending and a game changer for distribution to facilities lacking super cold storage

Neither is the Moderna but it is mention in an article here today you can start to register to get it?  As noted on 3, Sino, AZ, J&J!????

Thailand is the laughing stock of the world..the country is a joke and those running it are a bunch of corrupt clowns..even their own people know they are being manipulated and its clear that its only a matter of time before the general population takes matters into their own hands and initiates and over haul

Not exactly the FDA in the U.S. has revised that it can be kept in a normal freezer for 2 weeks instead of the cold storage as earlier noted. In the article I read it doesn't state whether after 2 weeks if unused how effective it will be thereafter?  Not sure you can put it in a regular freezer and then decide to put it back into cold storage even in cold storage the shelf life is 6 months?

 

Nevertheless, not completely a game changer but should give these Thai inept leaders more time to come up with the wrong answers!????

but still need good temp control, within the crate, not exactly possible in an attache case.

however it does seem that embassies can get this delivered, as they are their own territory.

All this talk about cold storage being a problem for Thailand?  I think this sells the people in the smuggling business a bunch short.  I imagine you can get almost anything you want into Thailand for a price. I don't doubt Pfizer is in Thailand.  If Thaskin bringing this out in the open creates a public awareness and uproar so be it. Most all thais read enough news to know they want  the JJ, Pfizer, or moderna.  You can bet there is a long line willing to shell out  10-20k baht for a top tier jab.  I see these IG stars showing dom bottles and on up.   For some in Thailand money is in endless supply. Even many of you TV members would quickly pay 10,000 baht.   Many That's accept this two tier justice and lifestyle but many are sick and tired if this.  Maybe there would be more of a push for government to get the vaccines going from HISO types of they didn't have an alternative.   But can't let this kiss of revenue go mainstream.   

All these threats of jail time for this or that but yet the krystal bar perps can zoom the work from home not jail.   I imagine the big man was hoping to look like a savior of his flock but I think he sees this dream dying.  Will anyone lose their job if the AZ misses shipments in June?  Who would trust the first or 3rd batch that gets rushed to keep the masses happy?

Some Thais I spoke to see the Taksin period as "the good old days." There certainly was a period of amazing prosperity in which it seems many common people flourished. It could have been that way with current folks, but various problems have made it the opposite.

Really. And without frigging the electoral system in the same way that the current lot did, without the cheating and "fixing" by the EC.

 

No guns, military or police were involved, nor was there a delay of over a month before the results were released.

 

Thaksin has done far more for the Thai people than any other PM since 1932.

I think thaksin knows more about this deal then this secretary of the FDA . I think he still has support in this country and he still knows very well what's going on here .

 A small number these under diplomatic authority could transport thousands of doses. The narrative of Pfizers vaccine " not entered" Thailand is pure fantasy and face saving. Lets get real for once.

The problem with getting the shot illegally is that you can’t prove it when you inevitably will need for travel.

Thaksin didn't say it was registered.

 

Hypothetically speaking, if the Pfizer vaccine existed in Thailand, it was probably privately imported from the UAE rather than bought from Pfizer directly, and if so, would be hypothetically available in some private clinics.

I am with you on this.

 

Additionally the Pfizer official statement on this said - we have not imported into Thailand through our local office.

I wonder if the certain group is ... well you know who I mean.

 

Watch out for fakes and make sure to get it at a legit location. Worries are going up about fake vaccines.

 

Fake immunization cards are also becoming a problem.

Not sure what your remarks have anything to do with my answer! Let get real for one? 

But based on your answer not me at least no one is saying a diplomatic authority can't bring in or sneak in or buy in if one has the power or money to do so especially the way Thailand operates! 

You want to assume we can assume for days but in the end, my answer has to do with storage of the vaccine not who or what could bring it in!

Get real!
