Just give placebo vaccines and everyone is happy....

You’re probably not far off - it has a 99.8% recovery rate and average age of death is 82 ! The vast majority of people who have had it won’t even be aware!

13.9% more deaths in 2020 in England and Wales compared to the average of the previous 5 years... (13.9% stat is from UK Office of National Statics, not a media source).

 

Recovery rate is actually reported at 94.5%...  IF I gave you a bowl of 100 M&M’s and told you 5 of them will kill you, would you take one ????

If I gave you a bowl of 100 M&M’s and told you 1 of them will kill you, would you take one ?

 

What about non-fatal complications as a result of Covid-19.....   

If I gave you a bowl of 10 M&M’s and told you 1 of them will make you quite unwell and leave you with long term discomfort, will you take one?

 

(of course, you don’t want an M&M that badly, but you get my point). 

 

IF I gave you a bowl of 1 million M&M's and told you that there is an 85% probability of not catching covid-19, a higher probability of not catching severe covid-19 and a 100% probability of avoiding death as a result of Covid-19..... BUT, 4 M&M’s in there could kill you - Would you take an M&M ????

I've heard the same. The most Northern Provinces, not shall we say the most well disposed to the government, feel that they have received less than their fair share. True or not, the rumour is making the rounds up here.

How would the govt benefit by not vaccinating people ? 
 

 

They’re not ‘not vaccinating people’ they are prioritising the vaccines they do have to those provinces with governors of greater influence.....  

 

Thus, those poorer provinces which have less financial influence (after all thats all the government cares about) and also has less voting influence in support of the current government are finding themselves without vaccines....

 

Or at least thats the allegation that has been reported in the Thai media this week. Now the government want to tighten the gag on social media and ultimately the actual media, if the gag wasn’t already tight enough !

Yep , some people do appear to be ' out of there ( sic ) minds '.

just bizarre 

The government said they would have sufficient doses of vaccine ( untrue ) . The government now slaps hospitals down for not having sufficient doses and says allocation is fair.

Frankly what is bizarre is that anybody believes a single word that the government utters.

Yes it is bizarre if you consider that a government's duty is to care for all it's people, irrespective of political creed or affiliation, in order to benefit the entire society. Quite a bizarre suggestion.

 

If however, you have a government whose mission is to support, enrich and benefit a certain small self perpetuating section of society, and whose only interest in the rest is to ensure that they either support that status quo ( and are therefore rewarded) or if they do not support  that status quo are ignored: then manipulating something like the supply of vaccines to benefit the "good people" makes perfect sense.

 

Now I don't know if that is what they are doing, but I can certainly understand the suspicions!

This is yet another time his false number has been posted..... to recover, you need to be infected. Taking World figures, there has been 175 million cases, and 3.8 million deaths. That is a 98% recovery rate, but may include partial recoveries...  better stated as, a 2% death rate.

I did also hear a similar rumour... Or rather my Wife, who is quite politically astute, informed me that the governors of some provinces have greater political influence it has been reported in the Thai news that some of the more powerful governors have been ‘meddling’ with the distribution of the vaccines to their benefit. 

 

 

No no no, "no Thai would do that".

He didn't say you would GET the vaccination, just that the appointment would not be postponed. Have a seat and read a magazine from 1993.

Boy, you hospital is up to date, 1993......

Even if they dont have any vaccines? Sounds about right

They should make everyone show up for their appointments and just give them a placebo to avoid making the government lose face.

Wife pre-paid for Moderna via private hospital in September with promise that it would arrive in October. She called today (November 17) and got a run-a-round. A scam that cost us 3k baht.

If nothing comes of it, I would be tempted to make a police report.
