Yes, Thailand did a great job in the first two waves but failed badly in the third wave so stop patting yourself.

 

Other Asian countries like China, HK, Vietnam, Taiwan, Cambodia, Laos, Singapore have much lower total virus count.

 

The vaccine rollout was also too slow and messy.

 

 

What did Thailand do that was so right? It was the virus itself that didn't take off for some reason. The country was some how lucky.

Taken out out context and a misunderstanding, what he actually meant was 17% ????

The UK started jabbing before Christmas, 5 months ago. The roll out has been very successful and praised widely and as of yesterday 56.8% had received at least one dose.

Thailand intends to jab 25% more people in a month less with little organisation or the vast number of volunteers which has made the UK roll out successful.

 

It also helps to actually have the vaccines rather than a dream that they might have.

Exactly. They don’t have the vaccines and even if they did, they don’t have the organizational skills to get them into arms quickly.

 

Talk is cheap. If they manage to do half what they are predicting I’d be amazed.

When it comes to procuring vaccines, Thailand aimed six months too late for the moon, and landed in the dump.
