Thailand is hardly a poor country. According to the World Bank classification system, Thailand is an upper middle income nation. It can easily afford to purchase all the vaccines it needs. It need not depend on charity. It's the will that's been lacking, not the cash.

So true.

 

Awful governance and one bad decision after another.

Disturbing.

They didn't order the vaccines.  Thats the problem.  They have or had plenty of money.

Awesome.

 

So who is paying for the TRC 1.1 mm doses?

 

And why wouldn't the TRC simply set up a separate purchase order?

 

Or why wasn't the order for 6.1 mm doses.

 

Sorry, the stench on this debacle is overpowering.

 

Ah, sense of smell, check, no COVID.

 

 

 

 

 

If it is to do with the Red Cross ,the Royal Princess is a patron ,she could well be paying for it ,

She gets a lot of donations ,that could well fund it 

Big deal, LMAO.

A million doses a month at a population of 60 million and you need two doses you should be good to go by the next pandemic.

Theres no donation!

 

The villages have to arrange to pay 1,300 a dose from there own budgets.  They then will supposedly vaccinate at risk people in there area.

There not supposed to charge these at risk people.  

 

My understanding is the village heads are usually pretty corrupt.  I can see this being resold at a steep price to the highest bidder.

So all of you expats pay your big money for a good vaccine, then when you get the

receipt after you have had your shot, it says, sinovac.   Yup  that

is what I would expect from Thailand.  Good luck to all of you.

Geezer

The society plans to administer the vaccine to target groups such as medical workers, the underprivileged, the disabled, the bed-ridden, pregnant women and seniors over 70 years of age who are yet to be vaccinated.

Looks like I struck-out again.

The Red Cross is not trying to vaccinate the entire population...

Adding the Red Cross into the equation with onward sales to corrupt local authorities is clearly intended to generate income for someone.

100%. Not sure if the Red Cross are buying their own, in which case they are using tax payer money, but they will then sell it on to POA's, so the tax payer paying for the same vaccine again. Will the Red Cross then pay back the money to the Govt or keep it?

 

Exactly the same scam for CRA Sinopharm vaccines. These are all Govt funded (Tax Payer) entities ordering/buying vaccines or being given them, who they are subsequently selling on some of them.
