Why would you expect Astrazeneca to inspect? It is not their facility and they are not in control. Siam Bioscience is providing the manufacturing facility. Oxford University has provided the formula to Astra Zeneca who in turn have licensed to Siam Bioscience and are providing scientific support and key ingredients. Manufacturing errors and quality are the responsibility of Siam Bioscience. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Large batches are tested for quality assurance. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's two completely different processes. The approval of the vaccine for use involves reviewing various sorts of written documentation submitted by the company, including the published results of the clinical trials and is done by the Thai FDA. What we are talking about here is the quality testing of physical samples of the finished product, done by the Department of Medical Science. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Rookiescot Posted May 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2021 Lot of people questioning the production and quality testing of this locally produced vaccine. If you think for one second a company like Astra Zeneca would put their name on something which was not fully within tolerances then you are living in cloud cuckoo land. It will match or exceed the quality of the same vaccine produced in western labs or it will not be released for use. Its as simple as that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I already alluded to, samples of the vacccine produced here already passed quality assurance testing by AstraZeneca in the US and Europe.

Based on the Australian experience you are correct. What nobody knew is that each subsequent batch undergoes a six week approval process before release.

Ergo why they have had the production issues causing the delay in providing the vaccine for use. Wonder how much money has possibly been lost due to this.
