Popular Post webfact Posted May 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2021 Picture: Ban Muang Ban Muang reported that the Korat Hall on the fourth floor of Central Nakhon Ratchasima was lively yesterday as Thai nationals and foreigners turned up to register and receive their first doses of vaccine for Covid-19. The media talked to two British people, an American and a Swede who expressed their thanks and confidence in the Thai rollout saying "it didn't hurt at all - like an ant bite". They were married to Thais or language teachers. Drinks company Ososapha had a booth and ten employees handing out tonic drink M-150 and vitamin supplement beverages for free. Picture: Ban Muang The event came as the province that is the gateway to Thailand's north eastern region reported one new death bringing the total from Covid-19 to 9. The latest case was a 39 year old male in Muang district who was not overweight or suffering from underlying health conditions and had contracted the virus from a friend in Rayong. There have now been 898 cases in Korat. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2021-05-24 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 4 4 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DirtyHarry55 Posted May 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2021 Most likely a PR stunt to appease International Embassies. What counts is the total of Expats who have been vaccinated. Just a few days ago Richard Barrow tweeted he had been turned down for a Jab after successfully registering 3 weeks ago. Also those Expats don't look to be over 60 how did they qualify? We should have a counter on TV to count how many members have received the Jab and how many have been refused. 23 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you didn't miss. Seems they simply didn't find it worth mentioning. Because really: what is available in significant numbers? Other stuff is promises only.

Popular Post Satyrman Posted May 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2021 Taking a Chinese vaccine to cure the Wuhan Flu, what a joke. With a 41.6% efficacy I wouldn’t bother taking the Sinovac shot. 5 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post wensiensheng Posted May 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2021 40 minutes ago, ArtVandelay said: Did I miss it? Where does it say the vaccine was Sinovac? Common understanding it that at present Thailand only has sinovac to offer. AZ production is due to start being distributed in June. Moderna etc only available in October. it’s possible they had AZ from local production but if they had, I think it would have been announced with great fanfare. weighing up the possibilities, I’d say it’s 99.9% sure they had sinovac. but you are right, it didn’t say it in the article. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
