Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha receiving his second AstraZeneca jab – Thaikufah Facebook page

 

Thai Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha is promoting public confidence in the Sinovac and AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccines, the two brands currently being administered in Thailand.

 

While receiving his second dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine today (Monday) he said “I’m here to take the jab because I have confidence in the vaccine’s efficacy and safety. There may be some side effects, but they aren’t fatal”. The prime minister received the jab at Bamrasnaradura Infectious Diseases Institute in Nonthaburi province. He received his first dose on March 16th.

 

“Everyone needs to listen to the doctors as well, including what to do before vaccination. You need to have enough sleep, and wait to see if there are any symptoms after the jab,” he added.

By now surely everybody knows that's an out and out lie.

 

Why not tell the truth? Why not explain the side effects and risks clearly, provide stats of those and the number of fatalities that have been reported after taking the vaccines? That would allow people to make up their own minds whether or not to take the risks.

Well if one of the side effects include my little bro not being  able to pump, I'm not risking it

He took the Astrazenca vaccine again not Sinovac which is the one people have no confidence in.
He should have taken Sinovac like everyone else.

The people at the tippy tippy top have made their wishes very clear to all involved.

Significant investment has been made and returns are expected.

Of course he is promoting them, the more people listening to his BS, the more his off shore accounts grow.

[wasabi]

He could also promote confidence by retiring.

We are listening and reading what leading Thai doctors are saying, "its imperative to get more variety of Covid vaccines to Thailand ASAP, thanks for the heads up on a good nights rest......

And those of his boss, of course, who we must stress has NO connections to vaccine production............

[tingtong]

...then after the 2nd jab our beloved leader Prayuth was shocked to read the study saying that against the locally newly popping up South-African strain  AZ said to be only 10% efficient.

Living happily ever after...or not....

This guy could not promote confidence in a new Ferrari model, much less a vaccine. To say he has less than zero in the way of credibility at this time, would be an understatement. Only his underlings, members of this feeble government party, and some army guys have faith in him.

 

As far as the Thai people go, his supporters are down to a few thousand, or so. He deserves that. He has worked very hard to become possibly the worst PM, ever. And that says alot here. There have been countless true BOB (bottom of the barrel) PM's here. 

 

This guy and his cronies have redefined what bad actors look like. The lack of honesty, transparency, dignity and good faith from him, Prawit, Phiphat, Anutin and others has had a toxic trickle down effect on nearly all national, provincial, and local government agencies, immigration, and the police. 

 

She described a litany of crude and sexist attacks by police and military officers during routine interrogations, including offensive questions about her clothes and vulgar innuendo about her relationship with male dissidents. “It’s terrible,” she said. “They attack us constantly.”

Tell that to the old people who have to be in line by 5 a.m, only to be told to come back tomorrow.

Remarkable how much a few billion Baht can do for the Lord High Czar's commitment to public confidence.

You couldn't chose a worse ambassador to promote something with the word ''confidence'' in it

[ikke1959]

on gthe pic he only put 2 fingers in the air ..... he forgot one .... time for him to leave but he doesn't understand it.. A poll showed that the Thai people want other vaccines too, but he is deaf

Relatives in the UK  are being told to return in 2 months for the second jab  as is the case with this bloke. he had his first jab 2 months ago.. so they say 

 

Waitresses  at a local Farang  Restaurant in East Pattaya has their first jab last Friday  & have been told to return for the second jab in 2 weeks time...that cant be right !!

[AquaThai]

Is it true that the UK and USA will not accept Sinovac as a Vaccine  and that it will not be accepted as a vaccine  to enter those countries?  If thats true what does it actually  suggest about this vaccine?

I don't know what that says about the vaccine but there is politics involved for sure!

"....There may be some side effects, but they aren’t fatal”

 

Somebody needs to sit him down and have a good talk about the do's and dont's of inspiring confidence.

I am unaware of any fatalities from the 3 million vaccinations in Thailand.

Well clearly you do not follow the news here, just talk for the sake of talking, because there has been at least 1.

Initially, the UK said that the second jab should be done 3 weeks after the first. Then there was a change of plan and the idea was to get as many 1st jabs as possible so the 2nd jab was delayed to 11 weeks. My first was done 4th March, the second 21st May. Anyway, the plan changed again about 2 weeks ago and the second jab is now done 8 weeks after the first, to get those 40+ fully protected as quickly as possible. First jabs are now being offered to 31 and 32 year olds.

It sounds a bit chaotic but the fact is that 4 months ago there were over 60000 new infections per day and now the figure is around 2000/day (lower than Thailand) and the country has opened up again. As of yesterday 56.8% of the country has had at least 1 dose, somewhat higher than many other countries.
