Popular Post webfact Posted May 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 14, 2021 Picture: Spring News In the clearest statement yet about foreigners getting vaccinated in Thailand the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration spokesman has said that it is definitely going to happen. Pongsakorn Kwanmuang said that foreigners should register for their Covid-19 jabs from August. He said that it was true that Thais would go first but foreigners then the homeless or tramps would go next, reported Spring News. "All people in Thailand will be vaccinated irrespective of who they are," he affirmed yesterday in a press call with medical staff. He was specifically asked about both foreigners and the homeless or "rayron" and he confirmed that the vaccination program was for everyone, period. He was slightly more evasive about questions whether people could roll up for a vaccination without registering. He urged people to register as this was best for data gathering and monitoring. He said that the registration process would be updated and streamlined shortly. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2021-05-14 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 3 39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post keith101 Posted May 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) It seems very obvious to all of us that this Government really has no idea what its doing or any clear timeline for doing it The PM (Prayuth)& Deputy PM (Anutin) should both resign and leave politics forever . IMO . Edited May 14, 2021 by keith101 38 2 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DirtyHarry55 Posted May 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) Well just as I thought and I would be surprised if it wasn't delayed even further it's total discrimination and violates the ethics agreement between Thailand and Astrazeneca. Time to lobby our Embassies and Astrazeneca I think. Otherwise we are looking at the Jab by the end of year or later by which time Thailand will probably have reached heard immunity.

Popular Post John Drake Posted May 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 14, 2021 No use working ourselves into a snit. Everyone had to know this would be the policy. Nothing really changed from the time of the first announcement of "Thais first" by Anutin. Some of the later statements finessed it, but they all amounted to the same thing. It's just the way things are, here. Too bad our embassies refuse to demand the same treatment Chinese nationals get. But our Western governments appear weak, ineffectual and indifferent. 26 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tramps and the Homeless should go before Thai's as they are more at risk but in Thailand it will go from Rich to Poor from Most Important to least Important. Why don't they get that??

Popular Post nightfox Posted May 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 14, 2021 So the next topic will be is how many foreigners will actually take up the Thai governments offer of free vaccination knowing it will be the Chinese Sinovac jabs that they will be getting. I myself and I'm sure many others will wait for the Phizer and Moderna jabs to be available no mater what the cost will be. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
