Good luck to them what is planning this.

I hope they pull it off.

Sounds difficult though.

That is the problem with all those Thai governments past and present. Huge goals but nobody that actually nails them down on those goals. Its more trying to spin good news then to be actually able to do i

This is the sad nature of a 'government' that operates freely with zero accountability and does not have the general populations best interests in mind.

 

This government could not give a monkeys about normal people.

 

 

maybe Thailand can learn from the U.S.  why don't they ask for help?

Problem is that previous governments did the same thing, BKK will not flood BKK will not flood but parts did flood and they could have seen it coming (on satellite images but kept lying). Only when the facts caught up with the lies did they tone down and even then they kept acting like they did not lie. 

 

Same will happen with this government. they will not make their targets and when its pointed out they will still try to lie and make themselves look good. Even if its proven they were wrong they will blame lack of vaccines (that they have to procure) or lack of infrastructure. But it will never be their fault. ????

 

The people in charge never ever accept their failings and always set targets they can't reach. Kinda like TAT who believes them.

As stated before I really believe that the Thais have the ability to make this happen.

They have this ability to organize something like this all around the country

BUT, where are the vaccines, ? On this question we are all being fooled by the 

lack of reporting, transperency etc.

How about another "press conference" telling the Thai people the status of vaccine production ?   I dare you !!!

Sounds great!

Anutin needs to cut back on his medication as it's affecting his judgement. To prattle on about achieving herd immunity (70% of the population) by the end of Sept just isn't going to happen. Simple maths indicate that it would require 360,000 jabs daily starting from today to reach the 49M target (70% pop) which was the number recently quoted by the Czar. A developed country like the UK with an unlimited number of vaccine has only given 37M jabs (55% pop) to date... https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/vaccinations

I am aiming to walk to town,????????????  Never going to happen, just like Anutins claims of 70 per cent being vaccinated by september.

don't give up Colin, have seen flying pigs 

...it said AIMS...said nothing about TARGETS....so i expect they will not hit the target.

So is that about over half a million shots per day? 

Well, I guess it's good to have goals.

I'm not British , not blowing any trumpets, but didn't they get to a million a day at some stage ? ... Of course theres a little matter of the cost involved , and eh... to put it bluntly , saving money is more important than saving lives in Thailand ... sadly ... First World when promoting itself... Third World when pleading excuses. rockets and submarines .... easy ... vaccinating the population ... ah here ! thats a hard one ... as the actress said to the bishop !

Covid: Virus cases are going down across the UK

 

The data is more evidence lockdown is controlling the virus, even with the more infectious variants circulating - although the health secretary said there is "still a long way to go".

The Indian variant is just getting going in the UK. Bolton near Manchester is under study.

https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/latest-greater-manchester-infection-rates-20606807

The danger is selective pressure in places with underperforming vaccines causing even more powerful variants than the Indian one to emerge.

Approved for use in Thailand however does that include the approval to import privately like other vaccines & medications?

Some how I think not. 

 

Why has the Sinopharm vaccine not been approved by Thailand - WHO has approved it for global use.

I'm not sure that WHO is a reliable authority. Better wait until US and UK approve it.

Maybe they'll change the target when it becomes obvious even to the most dull, brainless individuals around that it isn't gonna happen. It can be "clarified" that what they meant was 70% of the vulnerable population over 60 years old! hahaha If they can't meet that... they've got bigger problems than even I thought!

Whatever its problems The AZ vaccine is extremely effective on all metrics.

No, I think you are wrong, it's more like 500,000 shots a day for 1st shots, but dependent on how long they leave the second dose it could have to be up to a million shots a day. Either that or they'll be saying no first doses after September as they have to give the 2nd dose before 12 weeks runs out.

 

Thailand based on this roll out will need 30,000,000 doses of vaccine a day in the near future - I seriously cannot see that being available

 

I have this nasty feeling that at some point Thailand will run out of 2nd doses and nullify the 1st dose or something daft.

Not sure where you are coming from with the 30,000,000 doses a day!????

you build (or some other built it for you) some link that can not be correct.

As for exemple: " all around the UK pubs and restaurants and many other things have been openend again because of their vaccination program and many vaccinations".

No, they are open because the government release the pressure (even if they justify it with vaccination, the vaccination doesn't reduce infection so much). And then it is a political choice to let population win money with real services and work, and absolutely not a medical linked choice obligation.

Blackmail can start from there... to no more understand what is a choice and most probably a political choice and to reduce things as simple as you would like it to be.

Also, yes, cases report are dependant of tested population. Low tested population has a low level of contamination report (but that can not show any reality other than the logic link: no test = no case, low tests = lower cases, etc...).

COVID is a problem (as any other exist if we start to focus on them), but reduce things process is a bigger problem that can miss to resolve any other.

And the government is able to release the pressure because people have been vaccinated and will not get as sick as before and will not die or land on the IC . Or did you really think they would have done this if nobody would have been vaccinated ?? Don't think so . So your whole comment is useless and doesn't make sence to me don't know aboit others but it's a fact that if people wouldn't have been vaccinated the bars etc wouldn't have opened and absolutely is medical linked . There would have been 0% chance puns and restaurants would have been opened if hospitals where overflowing and IC would have been full and has nothing to do with releasing the pressure . And because of the vaccinations the nr's of hospitalized people and dying people have dropped and that's the only reason why they relaxed the rules . Your comment is the only conspiracy in this story .

5,00,000 is half a million I don't understand your response

Those are great news. Vaccination is indeed the way to go.

but it must be done right, fast. even 60% will get herd imunity and will

end the pandemic completely.

look at israel. on january it had one of the worst outbreaks that placed

it at one of the worst places for covid. than within a month (!!) 60% of the

population got vaccinated (pfizer) and the pandemic is gone !!

zero !! nada !!

 

Big difference, the Israelis are intelligent, organized and had vaccines available, and a smaller population

I’m glad to see he’s doing the best he can to keep the people in Thailand safe. So far for the last 16 months he’s done an excellent job   Many countries would love to have such a low death rate.  Good job Sir

but you've got to agree, whatever he has, or has not done, the low death rate is impressive

Not really true:

 

They can be kept in an ultra-low temperature freezer for up to six months, or for five days at 2-8 degrees C – a type of refrigeration commonly available at hospitals, Bencker said.

The Pfizer storage units can also be refilled with ice for up to 15 days, she said.

But shots will spoil in around five days at normal refrigeration temperatures of slightly above freezing. BioNTech CEO Ugur Sahin told Reuters the companies are analyzing if they can extend that for two weeks.

The vaccine of Moderna Inc (MRNA.O), which is working on a vaccine based on similar technology, does not need to be stored at such a low temperature.

Your info is outdated.  An unthawed unopened Pfizer vial can now be kept at regular fridge temperatures for up to 30 days.

"Even better for all of us.

Looks like they have been more than successful.

Sounds like an extremely risky plan. The vaccines have a set time between doses. What happens if they can't get the second doses in time? Better off just vaccinating 35% first.
