Just yesterday we had a topic to jab or not to jab and as I said it may not be a matter of choice but being singled out and outcasted if you do not and sure enough 24 hours later get this piece and I fear it will become the law if refuse to vaccinate will be made into an outcast

Anyone know which vaccine is being offered in burriram?

Yes  that would be the long time approved Singhaccine.

From the second half:

"Those who refuse to receive vaccine jabs, as ordered, may face a maximum fine of 60,000 Baht – 20,000 Baht for a violation of the Communicable Diseases Act and 40,000 Baht for a violation of the emergency decree – and/or two years in prison."

Since there are no vaccines, the second half is meaningless.

 

Also, the paperwork required by May 31 can relieve the requirements for a jab.

Read on and do a little research first:

 

If the person as considered to be at risk, they will have to be vaccinated on the date and time that the authority designates.

Refusal to fill the self-evaluation form can incur a fine of no more than 10,000 baht or jail for no more than one month.

A violator who refuses to be vaccinated could face a fine of no more than 40,000 baht or jail for no more than two years.

In addition if you actually cick on the link to the OP you will get further information:

 

Those who refuse to receive vaccine jabs, as ordered, may face a maximum fine of 60,000 Baht – 20,000 Baht for a violation of the Communicable Diseases Act and 40,000 Baht for a violation of the emergency decree – and/or two years in prison.

one month in prison

 

foreshadowing?   no vac, one month prison.   now.  falangs now are fully aware prison is possible.  

 

maybe soon there will be 10,000 things a falang must do..... or prison.

 

home sweet home falang.......

Just make up a story about a person getting the vaccine got a rash that had numbers in it and won the lottery.  They'll be turning people away.

It's called the "New Normal" to which we are no longer being asked but ordered to adjust.

This kind of law will almost certainly jeopardise the supply of vaccine.

 

You've got a very good point there. With the Chinese makers of Sinovac I hardly think they care too much but with other brands such as AZ or any others then I doubt they would want the headlines that their vaccines are being forced onto people with a threat of jail if they refuse.

Maybe we could flip this and insist if the Governor can't provide vaccinations for all those who sign up, he goes to jail until he can.

Didn't Prayuth say he'd take control over several ministries and is now the sole responsible for everything

According to my Buriram relatives who are getting vaccinated today, it has already started.

Absolutely ace answer. This is by far the best solution to a problem i have heard in years.

Well said BritManToo!

Government been trying to push Sinovac but without much success, people say "haven't we had enough problems already".

They won't be trusting anything that comes from China. 

When will we be able to buy a vaccine badge? A big V in yellow to pin to your shirt to alert everyone that you did your duty.

Did they register first, or is this a case of some impromptu vaccination campaign?

 

Did any relative refuse the jab and go to jail?

This is definitely a head scratcher.  You have nowhere near enough vaccines for all those who want them yet you feel you need to <deleted> people off and come out with this edict.  Unbelievable.  You can't make this stuff up.

Asked a question and then threw out the baiting point of your post once again.  Can you ever just accept things with a grain of salt instead of trying to prove your point is right?  If it happens I am sure it will be posted in an OP or shown on the news.

Maybe they didn't want to go to jail

Excellent. Refuse. Go to jail. Get covid in jail. Brilliant. Empty headed fools running the whole show here. Before covid I had always been astounded by the stupidity of those in power. Now? Well what's there to say other than the whole buy your way to power with an absolutely vacuous brain is on show for all to see.

A number of us jokingly invented the "Thai Thick Gene" ???? but it’s ironically turned out to be a truism! ???? 

What happened to, "My body, my choice"?

Insanity and utterly ridiculous when vaccines are not available for all people who may need them.  Sorry sir you get to go to jail because you did not sign up to be vaccinated and you broke the law 

But your honor I tried and no one would help me Said the 70 year old blind man.  To bad said the judge, its off to Klong Prem prison you go......

He better start building new jails as they will be full in no time. This is a free country and the people have a right to choose if they want or don't want a vaccine.

This is one step beyond and a massive violation of human rights

 

 

First they say no choice on vaccine now they are going to jail people that refuse

 

It would appear this is because many Thais are refusing to accept the sinovac chinese vaccine so now they are going to force it on people

 

shameful

I would say its criminal and shameful.

I'm kinda confused, first we had a bunch or foreingers complaining they couldn't get a vaccine, now we have a bunch of foreigners complaining they will be forced to have one. ????

We don't want the Chinese one pure and simple!!!

70% don't want the shot. 

No!  Not signing up does not imply not wanting it, or does it? 

So much for Land of the Free. Utterly ridiculous and a fear tactic. Out with him.
