Thailand grants citizenship to half a million people – but not farangs

[webfact]

Picture: Thai Rath

 

Thai Rath reported that comment was rife on the page of Hua Hin Hospital after the authorities said they only had 930 doses of vaccination against Covid-19.

 

A total of 5,800 people thought they were going to get jabbed at the hospital between June 7th and 11th after they registered.

 

Now they will have to wait. Some complained they had already taken time off work, others were furious at the hospital for dashing their hopes. 

 

The media reported there were nine new Covid-19 cases in Prachuap Khiri Khan yesterday making the total 1,704. 

 

Three were at the Dole pineapple canning factory that remains open but the site of quarantine for 1,375 workers that will end next Monday. 

 

There were three other cases in Pranburi, another was a Prachuap FC footballer who tested positive after visiting a Bangkok mall, while another was an Italian who was tested before preparing to travel abroad. 

 

Meanwhile police are preparing a case against the manager and the licence holder of Maya Pub after the Joey Boy concert on March 30th.

 

A big cluster of infections resulted.

 

Forty staff and patrons have been interviewed after recovering and charges against at least two people will be made in relation to contravention of the emergency decree and other Covid-19 rules.

I must take my hat off to those Thais that have that have access to time travel to arrive next week and have a wasted day off.

[shady86]

As expected. Since when this gov ever kept their promise?

Jesus could feed the 5,000 with 5 loaves & 2 fish...

When you understand the number of vaccines available and how thin they have to spread, Prayut needs a similar miracle.

He can make it rain, but can he walk on water?

Why would he care, he's had his.

Just another excuse to ask for "more money"

[mikecha]

Sorry  for the poor people that  traveled got nothing  

realy can not blame hospitals they do a very difficult job in these times and i think they are also frustrated that they do not get the Vaxine 

 

but like  everywhere its not wat you know But WHO  you know  

i think many top figures have already got injected but say nothing  

 

some front line workers want but also can not get

In a time of universal deceit, lying has become an art form.

100 doses per bottle and 16 weeks between shots and Prayut's Your Uncle.

Prayuth must be ousted. The extent of his failure is historic. Could they be doing a worse job with the vaccination drive? Astonishing. 

 

Where is the anger, amongst the masses? 

[natway09]

"Massive vaccination programme"

They just make it up as they go along

[BestB]

Just imagine what’s to come when mass vaccinations suppose to begin next week but there is no vaccine 

[sammieuk1]

Dead LOS as expected ????

And Phuket only needs about another 4-500k doses to reach the 70% target in 4 weeks.

There is a big difference in the logistics of collecting a fair number of fat brown envelopes vs. giving a huge number of shots in little pointy things.  Kind of like picking prime Durian fruits rather than grains of rice from a paddy. 

 

Be wary of those you didn't vote for. /S

So???? The sandbox Phuket it will fail for sure.. Holidays are for fun and relaxing . but Thailand with all the restrictions is not ready yet

[Tich]

This story will be repeated kingdom wide next week

[spidermike007]

And why aren't charges imminent for Prayuth and Anutin, for leaving Samut Sakhon as open as a front porch, after over 900 cases were found? It was a week later when they finally decided to lock it down. Prayuth was quoted as saying he was scared of the "optics of a lockdown".

 

Oh yeah? You were more scared of the optics, than of a large 2nd wave, which crippled the economy, on your watch. You only had to lock down a 2km. radius, and there would not have been a 2nd wave! Massive dereliction of duty. By the time you came to your senses, seafood distributors were super spreading it all over the country.

 

Where does the blame really lie? And who is being blamed? The little guy, as usual. 

 

Get out. Get out now. You are not wanted. You are not needed. You are not competent, nor are you effective. Everything you touch, fails. Do the people a favor. Resign. Now!

Trump has been become as irrelevant as I predicted he would be. He even had to close his new blog/website, as nobody seemed to care.

75 million is far from no one, but I do agree as a 'persona' he is fading (right into custody eventually imo for taxes are a serious issue in the US). Trouble is there is a general dissatisfaction among many different factions right across America, it wouldn't take much for another dangerous candidate to be voted in down the road - but that's the essence of democracy. Democracy is similar to religion, it's a great concept until people are involved..

I love the Rusty Cole statement about religion in True Detective, S01. One of best written TV shows, ever. Relates to some of Trump's devotees, and to an extent, some of the few thousand souls left here, who are still buying into this administration's protestations of sincerity. 

 

Transference of fear and self-loathing to an authoritarian vessel is  catharsis. He absorbs their dread with his narrative. Because of this, he's effective in proportion to the amount of certainty he can project. Certain linguistic anthropologists think that religion is a language virus that rewrites pathways in the brain, and dulls critical thinking.

On Saturday they announced that they had received additional vaccine, for a total of 2,514 doses and that everyone who had an appointment on 7 or 8 June would get their vaccination as planned.

 

As it happens, my wife got her first dose today exactly as as scheduled (and it was AstraZeneca).

 

Hopefully they will get additional supplies in the coming days.
