Did you just get off a plane? I seem to recall Thailand received some AZ doses along with the Sinovac awhile back.

Popular Post arcturaz Posted May 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2021 And yes, this was a test to see how many fools would immediately attempt ad hominem attacks to undermine what is clearly important information. Also, what matters is the content of his presentation, not whether whoever complied the video made typographical errors. A classic instance of attacking the messenger, not the message, because the message is sold and incontrovertible. So smear attacks and vulgar speech come from shills and intellectual prostitutes who have no real knowledge. Those same people are now complicit with the modern equivalent of Nazism and an attempt to conceal one of the greatest crimes in history. The facts pile up and the sheep bleat ever louder. As Mark Twain famous said, 'it is easier to fool a man then make him understand that he was fooled. ' 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She asked if I could have it too but they said no not for foreigners! It was my account she was there for??? I did tell her that Wuflu treatment was free for Thais and the insurance company knows this and she said ,'do you believe that?' You should go to the bank and ask something in regards of your wife's account. Maybe they sell you a car insurance. Wait, your wife hasn't a car. Doesn't matter. Better with than without insurance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeall Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 6 hours ago, DirtyHarry55 said: 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. Or they could give potato juice or whatever and say its done..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the same setup for getting vaccinated in the UK,and your in and out in ~20 mins,which includes 15 minutes post injection waiting time to check for any immediate side effects,before being allowed to leave. The Pattaya vaccination center claimed 50 people per hour. I could see over 100 people in the OP photo, so some of them would have waited 2hrs.

How many of those are there in the US, UK and Europe who are involved in the current Covid recommendations? By the way, no "corner clinics" in Thailand are providing vaccinations.

Perhaps her reaction would have been the same with any other vaccine and perhaps her reaction was nothing to do with the vaccine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some winners do have a screw loose or two Science Denial Kary Mullis, the 1993 winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, revels in his reputation as a "maverick." In his autobiography, Dancing Naked in the Mind Field, he extols the virtues of astrology, describes a possible encounter with aliens (which appeared to him in the form of a talking, glowing raccoon), and cheerfully admits his repeated use of LSD. Unfortunately, Mullis’ maverick theories also include AIDS denialism. He has lent his Nobel Laureate star power to endorsing the theories of molecular biologist Peter Duesberg, who asserts—despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary—that the HIV virus is harmless and that AIDS is actually caused by recreational drug use and anti-HIV pharmaceuticals. https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/151005-nobel-laureates-forget-racist-sexist-science Edited May 24, 2021 by bunnydrops forgot link 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorix Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Anyway, the bottom line is that "Delighted expatriates in Korat received the first dose of COVID-19 vaccine". It is a day of joy and celebration for them and we should rejoice too. Doing what makes you happy in this life is what really matters. Moreover, more and more volunteers are needed for this experiment so that the crazy theories of Nobel laureates like Mr. Vin Rouge can take shape, so my sincere congratulations to the lucky pioneers and all my thanks to them from the bottom of my heart.

Sir Dude Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Problem here for expats (or others for that matter) is that it's not beyond the realms of possibility that if you want to travel in the future to, say the US or Europe, then one of the conditions may be that you need to have had an approved vaccine by the destination country. All well and good if it's Moderna/AstraZeneca/Pfizer etc. you've had but Sinovac probably won't cut it as I doubt it'll be approved by lots of Western countries for reasons of not performing well to the political. As the only vaccine available at the moment here in Thailand is the Sinovac one, unless you have access to the government's secret stash of Pfizer for the rich elite family types, then probably better to hold up and wait-it-out till other vaccine options turn up in private hospitals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricTh Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 What? Some of them look very young which is around 30 to 40 so why did they get the jab first when we are told that all foreigners that is below 60 should wait? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wharria Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 All the western vaccines have had cases of blood clots being reported with a few deaths but their is no proof the vaccine caused the blood clots only suspected. Their have been over 50million doses in England alone of the Astra Zeneca vaccine with less than a few hundred cases with less than two dozen deaths. Yet when the Thai Government first started giving vaccine to medical staff it was reported that at least six in Ranong were violently ill some falling into comas. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
