Thailand expects up to 20 million doses of Pfizer vaccine from July

[ebean001]

One information source. Daily update. the truth. ... hummm not that hard. 

[dogfish180]

Likely being procured by private hospitals for sale, but the government will take the credit if it happens. 

[PEE TEE]

IF true???? How would they transport it i think it has to be stored at minus 70 degrees 

[dallen52]

Yawn.

Boring, here we go again.

Meh.

 

Still no agreement with Pfizer so these words are useless. Actually worse than useless as they are confusing.

 

More details by dep-govt spokesperson 
@ttraisuree
: She says 
@pfizer
 will deliver their #COVID19 vaccine “in Q4/21” (Anutin said “Q3 or Q4”) and they’ll only seek authorization with 
@fdathai
 once a deal has been reached and will talk only with the govt, private sector later.

 

 

He needs to keep quiet until he has some real news.

A better estimate would be between 10 -- as in ten ONLY -- and 20 million.

Perhaps he was referring to a repeat order of Pfizer for the elite.

[SuwadeeS]

Well. Well.

Depends on the pay morality.

I still remember the "Berger Express way Bang Na" not payment. That time they offered the coupons instead of cash. Hahaha

Good news ! There is hope ! Worst case scenario ,it will come during the fourth quarter !

 Sinavac isn't a option for my family, especially when it comes to travel !

 

Absolutely can’t travel with inferior Chinese vaccine

[clivebaxter]

I always expect to win a million quid on the premium bonds, not happened yet but about as likely as all these vax orders arriving and 70% being jabbed by the years end.

[raccos21]

What is Mr. Flip Flop talking about? The heading says that Thailand is expecting the 20M doses, but later it says the whole of Southeast Asia is receiving these 20M. He is really confusing the people. There are 11 countries in Southeast Asia, not only Thailand, so they’d have to divide those 10 or 20M doses equally with other countries, and therefore, Thailand only gets a fraction from the 20M doses, not all of it. This is why we need real medical experts to talk about this kind of matter, not some clowns.

Like the purchase of millions of SinoVac and AstraZenaca? Gosh I think Thais will be over vaxxed. 555

 

I take it you are saying they will be oversupplied, in that case they can start giving them to the Soi dogs, nothing wasted.

Christmas is coming. The goose is getting fat
Please put a 1,000 baht in a nut in’s hat.
If you haven’t got a 1,000 baht, a 500 note will do.
If you haven’t got a 500 note, then get out of the country to get your vaccine, you dirty farang!

Pfizer Inc.’s chief executive said that low- and middle-income countries had opted not to order the company’s Covid-19 shot,
“We reached out to all nations asking them to place orders so we could allocate doses for them,” Chief Executive Officer Albert Bourla said in a letter addressed to Pfizer employees. “In reality, the high-income countries reserved most of the doses. I became personally concerned with that and I reached out to many heads of middle/low-income countries by letter, phone and even text to urge them to reserve doses because the supply was limited.”

     With an economy 20% based on tourism and the country needing to be vaccinated before it could re-open to tourists, Thailand should have been first in line.

We already have sinovac. What’s your problem??

[OneMoreFarang]

I suggest the next headline should be: Thailand Covid free

 

Because eventually there won't be any Covid cases anymore. Will it happen anytime soon? No. But the headline would look nice and eventually, maybe in 10 years, it might happen.

 

On the other hand maybe whoever put this article here should next time think twice about confusing and misleading headlines.

One it is not widely approved, many nations are not approving it...why?

Two do we have anywhere near 140 million doses?

 

Sinovac is being given to Thailand as an experiment whilst China uses Sinopharm for its own people.....

Starting June 7th, right on schedule, according to one of my Thai friends who has an appointment and confirmed that it would be AZ, not Sinovac.

I expect further high levels of BS and a continuing level of gross incompetence well into the future. 

Another medal though General sir , the " talking through the A**e award"

"Thailand expects 10-20 million doses of Pfizer vaccine"...yeah, and if I am living in LOS as an expat under the circumstances, I would expect getting kicked to to curb no matter how many doses of vaccine they get. The best solution for expats in LOS ???Maintain a strong natural immune system as best as you can; i.e. eat right, take vitamin and mineral supplements, exercise/don't  be FAT, and get good rest. Bottom line expats; YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN. And if you expect the same or special treatment as a Thai national, then wake up/grow up and accept this reality or move back to your home country.
