The Chinese vaccines don't need the sub-arctic controlled temperature chain of the other, more desirable but totally unobtainable vaccines.

Still no reason to be left out in the sun though.

if that got injected into the bloodstream it would very likely act like a clot

 

 

Yes indeed. Injecting gel into the bloodstream is not a good idea, to put it mildly.

Extremely Cold Storage Caused Gel in Sinovac Vaccine

BANGKOK, June 29 (TNA) – Officials found gel inside 110 vials of Sinovac vaccine for COVID-19 because they were kept in too low temperatures.

 

FDA deputy secretary-general Dr Surachoke Tangwiwat said he issued a warning on the appropriate storage of vaccine after gel had been detected inside 110 vials of Sinovac vaccine at one non-hospital inoculation station in Bangkok.

 

Vaccine in the 110 vials was not used and was recalled at once.

I'm very sorry to write this but it's the truth.  

This is typical Chinese quality control.  That is why foreigners usually are in China every step of the way to watch quality control.  And given this is health care, well it's even more critical.  

What a shame they can't get this right all these years later.  They haven't learned a thing.

Frightening thought there is that they may have used it if it had !

How many have been used after the gel DID go away after being shaken? ????
 

oops, think I misread your post and effectively just repeated it.

So, despite all the jokes above, it sounds like the Thais are fessing up to it being their handling practices, at the one subject location, that caused the problem with the vaccines... and not an issue of contamination or mishandling of the vaccines while in China...

Yes. I think that is what happened.

 

Also, the first time Thai authorities might admit making a mistake.  Mind you, maybe they feel stuck between a rock and a hard place...in mean, I can never think of them daring to criticize China.

I was mulling the same issue... IF it HAD been a China production or handling problem that eventually was discovered here, would the Thai government ever publicly bite the hand that feeds them?  Hmmm.....

If they can make a mess of storing what is the vaccine with the least rigorous requirements, imagine what a mess they could make out of the fancier vaccines requiring far more stringent storage requirements...

 

Is it a Thai habit to ensure that any control is always turned up to maximum?

They are administered through a needle, not a straw.   And they aren't injected into the bloodstream anyway.

Still, do you want it injected, via a needle (if it can get down it), into your body? I would prefer to know why it has jello in it, whether this means it is contaminated, or simply expired and ineffective. Seems sensible to investigate why this happened, and ensure the batch is not used.
