The third wave of COVID-19 that rolled into Thailand last month has rocked not just the fragile economic recovery but also the government’s vaccination plans.

 

The resurgent virus has spawned serious outbreaks in the key economic hub of Bangkok and its vicinity, leaving the government scrambling to redeploy its limited supply of vaccine to COVID hotspots.

 

“The focus should now be on Greater Bangkok,” said former deputy public health minister Dr. Surapong Suebwonglee. Surapong, also a former deputy PM, is a member of the CARE political group launched by ex-Thai Rak Thai members.

They could spend time revisiting and replanning, or alternatively they could just start injecting a few million upper arms.

This sounds like a job for several 'Committee's' , Panel's' and 'Probes' with everyone involved on high salary's and related to or friends of the Gangsters in Parliament !

A couple of days ago came the plan, now comes the replan, or plan B.

 

By the end of the month we should be already be at plan Z, or maybe even in the double lettering...

 

So, they will have to reschedule all the appointments already booked...one can already imagine the confusion going forward.

 

Let's revise our prognostic for vaccination down to 30% by year end...with probably more revisions to follow...

With what? Ya gotta have it to inject it.

[internationalism]

the problem with thailand is mafia style secrecy what the government is doing, lack of scrutiny by an independent media and lack of accountability of civil servants.

so they can come up everyday with plans, figures shortly followed by "misunderstandings", "distortions", fact denials and outright "fake news" accusations at people trying to challenge them. 

[Soikhaonoiken]

This Government doesn't know how to replan, as they never had a plan in the 1st place to combat this virus, they will just watch more and more people die each day.... Totally pathetic.. 

[kynikoi]

Replan? Start again? Aw shucks...

 

Wait...when did we start??

 

 

The plan

1. Get non Sinovac vaccines

2. Inject people with vaccine

 

 

Guarantee excuses will be made and the entire nation will only get Sinovac. It will be given to foreigners just to spite them.

Caption says that "CoronaVac or AstraZeneca vaccine" is being administered in Klong Toei.

 

Where did they get the AstraZenca vaccine? Found it in the back of the fridge? I thought that was long gone, since they only got about 115,000 doses way back when.

yes, they had only 117.5k of AZ back in february. They were given very slowly only to VIPs and in April they still had over 30k left. But already many days it was completely gone. There is no chance that they have survived till 11.05 and they would not be given to slum dwellers. So it was sinovac

Plan Z will be wait for Plan A which was wait for in-house manufacturing to start.

'Re' prefixes verbs to indicate that the action must be repeated, usually because it was never done in the first place (my personal guess) or was not done correctly the first time. 

Either way, I think we can expect a lot of 're'peats of 're' verbs for the foreseeable future. 

Maybe the problem will 're'solve itself without any 're'planning at all. ????

[Cake Monster]

The Gov,t are at this precise time revisiting , revamping and re-planning the Vaccine roll out.

They have all these Grandiose Plans for Drive through Vaccination , 5 Million vaccinated in BKK, 70 % of Phuket and Pattaya Vaccinated Etc Etc

But the one vital thing missing is 

.... Vaccines.

[Dont confuse me]

This thread will be going 12 possibly 18 months from now nothing will have changed other than a few million arms jabbed.

Excuses for failure will be blaming other countries for not selling the vaccine.

Of course falang will be slaughtered at every given opportunity.

Place is a joke!

"Hey!  I have a grand idea!  How about we roll out a regressive, bordering on repressive tax on all vaccines imported by private hospitals?  In these pandemic times, that's sure to help efforts to get Thailand vaccinated and protect the public health of Thailand!  What say you?  All in favor of taxing imported vaccines raise your hands!!!"

I believe the only "plans" involve how some members of the upper-crust of the Thai elite can financially benefit from this public health disaster without any of the blow-back getting on said "elite."  The public and the public health be da*med.  And blame the public for everything.  Double  blame the foreigners.  Triple blame migrants.

No, it wasn't. 

It was AZ.

I don't know where they got it from.
