It's like they interview the same people every time. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do your part by giving us the best vaccines even if they cost a arm and a leg and we will do our part, to wear these hard to breathe masks. Hard to breath......??

Bish, bash, bosh... Nope. Not a single pass of the buck, finger point or blaming of anyone in the PM's short speech. NOT A SINGLE ONE Just a plea for everyone to do their bit for the good of the nation. I know it's not your nation and you probably don't give a toss either way, but if you are going to stay up late (or get up early) to make a point, at least try and be factual and honest. 1 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Trujillo Posted June 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2021 The lead photo of the sign on the beach extolling you to wear a mask is probably the single best way to make people NOT come to Thailand. It is already well understood that coronaviruses do not transmit outside, and the salt air, breezes and sunlight should be enjoyed without constraint. If I was looking for a place to holiday, and saw that sign, that would be enough for me to cancel any plans to come to the Land of Masks. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtls2005 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 86.9% hailed the plan as well-thought out and clear, which will help boost confidence in the reopening of the country. Sorry, what "plan" was that? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course he is... it's his master plan., absolve himself from all blame and subsistence. The man is a genius. Like my old man always used to say "be careful of what you wish for" Come October or sooner the borders will be open. You can remain closed or open your business, whatever that may be. From a street vendor to the largest of hotels your destiny is back in your own hands. When no tourists come flocking back don't start asking for bail-outs... because you have no income to cover costs. His answer will simply be... "the borders are open" Sink or swim you're on your own again. he won't be bailing out the entire country. Good luck with your re-opening strategy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, in these times, I would not be deterred by the need to wear a mask in some situations and places.... although sat moderately isolated on a breezy beach would not be one of them..... I would like to see beach scroungers and hawkers removed and a few remaining ones to be masked. More important might be what else is open to me, like bars and restaurants and tours.... and if partaking of any tours, would there be safety measures... I don't want to be packed into a long tail boat close with other nationalities, and no masks. Edited June 21, 2021 by jacko45k 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sqwakvfr Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 1. Order Pfizer Vaccines in Jan 2021 2. Order Moderna Vaccines in Feb 2021 3. Order J&J Vaccines in March 2021 Pfizer vaccines arrive in May 2021-vaccinations start Moderna Vaccines arrive in June 2021-vaccinations ramp up J&J vaccines arrive in July 2021-vaccinations now are in full ramp up Along with the AZ vaccines a truly massive vaccination program starts in June-July 2021 where more than 50% of the population is vaccinated by September 2021. Then and only then October 2021 has a realistic chance of happening. Based upon the current status of vaccine deliveries, orders and inoculations a more realistic date for any type of safe opening could be December or January 2022 or later. Big deal if 70% are vaccinated in Phuket? People will leave Phuket and travel the rest of the country where vaccination rates are substantially less. This could cause clusters or outbreaks. Vaccines are not 100% effective. Just yesterday a member of the Ugandan Olympic delegation tested positive after arriving in Tokyo for the Olympics. The Ugandan delegation had been vaccinated(news report did not indicate what vaccines were given to the Ugandan delegation?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When are the expats living here going to be able to register for their jabs? When are those pesky expats actually going to get their shots? Lots of waffle, but nothing to back it up. With an attitude like yours (referring to Thai nationals as Peasants) I would hope it is a very long time before you get vaccinated. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbeemer Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 (edited) The biggest fly in this ointment is Sinovac which has proven to provide no protection against the Delta variant originating in India. Indonesia just discovered this the hard way when healthcare workers who were inoculated with Sinivac contracted the Delta variant. Thailand has put a lot of eggs in the Sinovac basket. AstraZeneca is now in further disrepute as countries like Canada will no longer use it. I for one will wait for the private clinics to get their supplies of Moderna or Pfizer and won't allow my loved one to get Sinovac or AZ , free or not.
