Popular Post snoop1130 Posted May 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 14, 2021 Officials at the Thai government’s Anti-Fake News Centre have been instructed to intensify their efforts to prevent and crack down on fake news, which is deemed detrimental to life and property, to alert the public about fake news and to provide the public with facts. The instruction was issued by Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan, who is in charge of security affairs, during his inspection visit to the centre today (Friday). He attached special importance to fake news related to COVID-19 vaccines and the spread of the disease which, he said, has caused widespread public confusion and, hence, needs to be rapidly suppressed.

Dogmatix Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 I hope they will crack down on this fake news. A fake promotion for 18-59s to register by tomorrow for free Astra Zeneca shots in June. The QR code takes you to the Mor Prom LINE account but there ain't nothing there about this offer and under 60s still can't book appointments. I tried to book one for Mrs Dog who is scared of getting vaccinated. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post E020 Posted May 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) So if you think the vaccine is <deleted>, it is fake news? I know enough people who had problems because of this vaccine. I don't trust any vaccine. Let alone a vaccine in Thailand. WIll be really scared if I see the dead bodies packed up in Beach Road and Buakhao, but for now I don't see it ???? I will go back home if I have to take any vaccine. It's probably the last time I will go to Thailand anyway. Seeing their real faces now I live here for a longer time, time to look for new destinations for the future. Philippines probably ???? All respect for anyone who wants to take the vaccine. Everyone should decide it for their own Edited May 14, 2021 by E020 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they are responsible for issuing fake news that is officially sectioned, that's a whole different thing to unsanctioned fake news, or news that is officially not fake, but turns out to be wrong, or just wishful thinking.

Considering how many falsehoods and misleading comments have been told about the Sinovac vaccine in this forum, those spreading them could well be subject to the government's attention at the very least. Although I doubt they pay much attention to what farangs have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
