Petey11 Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 1.8 million, about 5 days supply at the rate Thailand needs to vaccinate at to reach the end of year target set by the PM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I'm the mark/rube in the game of three-card monty. And anutin is the dealer. I simply don't udenrstand why they can't create a cartoon which shows the different buckets o' vac, where the came from and where they're going. Is there really anything in those trucks? Feels like some sort of heist movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placeholder Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 5 minutes ago, connda said: Which means that 700,000 went somewhere else. Where to Mr Tegue? Why do you think that any of that amount mentioned by Anutin came from the AZ facility in thailand. Especially considering that the mentioned Sinovac as part of that total.. Read the first 3 sentences of the article carefully. The first 1.8 million doses of Covid-19 vaccine made in Thailand are “ready to be gradually rolled out,” AstraZeneca said in a statement Wednesday. “Now that we are ready to deliver high-quality vaccine produced locally, we can help the Thai government achieve its goal,” said James Teague, country president of AstraZeneca Thailand. Health Minister Anutin Charvirakul said earlier Wednesday that 1.1 million AstraZeneca and Sinovac jabs had been deployed to provinces as of Tuesday, as preparation for the nationwide roll-out for people aged between 18 and 59 that is scheduled for June 7.

brommers Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Read the statement from Bob the Builder and you cleatly see that the supply situation is not based on locally produced doses but on a grab bag of supplies picked up on an ad hoc basis. There is little doubt that the situation will be unstable and this will have repercussions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Excellent news, so there is only another 65 million (times two as it takes two jabs I hear), i.e. 130 million to be delivered - well done; keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

friendofthai Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Thais sell cheap AZ to Philippines and buy expensive Sinovac and Sinopharm. Looks like Thailand respects Sinovac much more than AstraZeneca. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PETERTHEEATER Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 22 hours ago, Rookiescot said: By the looks of that forklift truck driver its highly unlikely anyone will be getting a vaccine. They probably still sweeping up that load from the floor. No sweat. According to the labels that crate is full of wine glasses and umbrellas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
