unblocktheplanet Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Same used in Canada & Germany. In BC, someone I know had a first jab of Pfizer & second of Moderna. Now that's something I never heard of before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad Thailand is not part of COVAX. A decision that prayut and anutin made. Oops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placeholder Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 I expect they'll track how people inoculated with AZ + mRNA will do compared to cohorts that were vaccinated with just one vaccine. Outcomes should be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough I concede that there is one sentence saying they are not ordering any az for next year so unlikely to happen in Germany next year. The article doesn’t say why this is the case though. However the studies for mix and match are showing there is a case for it and there is nothing in that article saying it will not happen in the future.

This is quite clearly and simply to get themselves out of the hole they have dug for themselves by not having sufficient AZ vaccine to give people their second dose, together with the rapidly emerging need to give their medical personnel who have had two jabs of Sinovac a booster shot of something, anything really, that might work.

My posts are more focused upon az-Pfizer/Moderna combinations. There are studies arguing this is a viable option- though having done a bit of googling into az being phased out in Australia and possibly Germany the argument for this combo may be moot.

club Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 (edited) Unique!!!!! Its called desperation. The Thai people have gotten wise to the Sinovac. If you cant get people to take Sinovac Your screwed Mr. PM. You dont have enough AZ to vaccinate 70% of the population. You have no choice. You have to buy Western Vaccines or watch many Thai and foreigners die and sorry one jab of AZ is not going to work Edited July 18, 2021 by club 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 80 days you have lost almost all your protection. This study was on the original Covid 19, not the Delta variant.

I don't doubt you at all. I do doubt the Thai government. I suspect that they are seizing the suggestion of mixing vaccines to get them out of some of their problems. I doubt research comes into it!

rupert the bear Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 this is my own personal view and what i intend to do.its all a bit murky of course.i will not take any china jab as its not effective against the indian variant.as for mix and match using this ...no way ill refuse it.i will take AZ as a 1st jab and take it along with J&J pfizer moderna as a 1st or 2nd.this appears the best course to me.as for what can be in done in the short term.make the borders clear IE malaysia and burma where they have hi nos,seal them even at the cost of the hi so business elite losing money.the high cost of china vaccs need to be investigated and and law breaking most be punished and anutins/govts reckless behaviour must be punished too along with his racist rantings.our govts need to step up and fill the void.there is very little other option.some have IE france being the most competent,we cannot trust the govt here in this respect so i suggest the 5 eyes get together and jab their citizens,it will help the overall situation and help a totally incompetent vacc roll out,the staff at 5 eyes embassies have been jabbed so why we arnt also needs to be investigated.many of us are taxpayers.they will look bad and are presently,the bodies are starting to pile up already.the arrogance of the uk and australian govts is a stark reminder of how the embassies operate but i think most of us are well aware of that already.contact your local MPs at home and rattle their cages severely,also the press at home,the wokesters should be reminded that no matter what colour we are ,we can all be victims.
