Anutin chimed in that from next month Thailand would be getting 10 million doses of vaccine a month.

how long are the Thai people going to put up with these two ###

[pseudorabies]

More over-promising and under-delivering.  Just as we saw with the promises for Siam Bioscience's timelines and production levels.  In the end a bitter disappointment that the government apparently couldn't see coming and didn't prepare for.

 

Each day confidence in the government's ability to deal with this situation erodes.  Really, it shouldn't be this difficult. I'm worried that with the limited shelf life and temperature sensitivity of the Pfizer vaccine a significant portion will be wasted while the government tries to figure out how to distribute AFTER the vaccines arrive.  Even worse would be if they inject mishandled vaccines anyway just to keep the numbers up. I wish this was hyperbole....

[pegman]

Well it seems things have gotten to the point where even the governors he appointed won't lie on cue and say cases are going down in their province. The beginning of the end I guess. The puppet master is likely to get rid of these thugs before he goes down with them. Time to bring back the Shinns!

[Emdog]

"Top of the agenda was more beds in these provinces and how to pay for them and antigen test kits and if the people knew how to use them."

Top of the agenda should have been getting vaccine to folks outside of Bangkok ASAP.

I'm surprised he didn't also say Bangkok centric government will provide more crematoriums to provinces to lighten load on wats.

The authorities would be able to vaccinate a million people a day throughout the country, he said confidently without explaining the obvious discrepancy. 

I nominate Mr. Anutin as one of the leads in the next Dumb and Dumber installment, co-produced by Thailand using funds from potentially canceling its "superfluous submarine" deal with its overlords in the north.

[mikebell]

Every statement is always about the future; 'things will be better in ...'. 'More vaccines are due to arrive next...'.  Thais live for the present and have no concept of tomorrow.  They will take 100 baht now rather than a promise of 200 at the weekend. Prayuth is, therefore, talking through his bottom if he thinks his pronouncements are reassuring to the people.

[ikke1959]

1 month has 30 days, without the weekends still about 22 days.. 1 million jabs a day x 22 days is 22 million in a month.. How can he do that with 10 million vaccines?? Magic/??

“The sun'll come out tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow
There'll be sun

Just thinkin' about tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs and the sorrow
'Til there's none

 

When I'm stuck a with day that's gray and lonely
I just stick out my chin and grin, and say, oh

 

The sun'll come out tomorrow

So you gotta hang on 'til tomorrow
Come what may

 

Tomorrow, tomorrow
I love ya tomorrow
You're always a day away”

Although people are suffering badly right now, this virus was maybe what’s was needed to truly expose these guys.

[sammieuk1]

This time next month we'll be vaccinating a million a day Rodney ????

I wonder what data he got ?

Get 10 million in a month and vaccinate 1 mill per day ... that month gonna be over very soon .

Someone explained homeopathy to Anutin.

 

"Unlike concrete, sir, it works after infinite dilution."

Anutin: "OK, that I understand. No rebar?"

 

[khunpa]

The situation will properly not improve anytime soon and here is why:

 

As the rich countries have vaccinated most of their population, low-income countries have not.
 

This means new stronger variants will properly turn up in those countries, which will then travel back to the rich countries and require re-vaccinations there. And the low-income countries will again be behind.

 

And so the circle will continue for years to come.

 

Let’s hope I am wrong…

[Eric Loh]

A non elected leader trying to show accountability to the people. Oxymoron. 

[steven100]

Thank you Khun Prayut Chan O Cha for speaking up and taking it to the Governors ...

So the numbers are not going down,  but hopefully 4-6 weeks will show an improvement, so let's see.

More BS as the situation deteriorates.

If i am correct even the UK only managed average about 500, 000 to 600,000 doses a day. Peak about 800,000 for short periods.

Most developed countries can only achieve at peak about 1 dose per 100 people in population ( usa included) ie 700,000 here.

1m a day, Pure fantasy.

 

[brucegoniners]

Hahahah. You hope...

 

This guy is in way over his head.

[Pedrogaz]

I guess there must be at least one person that believe this nonsense and that is Anutin himself. What is the difference between lies and BS? A liar knows the difference between a lie and the truth. a BS artist doesn't, he simply cannot tell the difference. Anutin is made of BS but oozes creditability to the one person that matters to him: himself.

“I hope…”

which means he has no facts that he understands.

I have a very simple philosophy to be applied to economic crisis and pandemics.

 

Economic crisis, first the companies and individuals go bust, then the banks, then the Gov't. Then you have anarchy.

 

Pandemic crisis; The sick multiply, fatalities increase, hospitals cannot cope, morgues cannot cope and overflow. Then you have anarchy.

 

Top of their agenda was hospital beds and testing. A clear sign how far they are down the line. I really do hope that they do not reach the next step, like they did in India.

Yes, that's what happens when you pull figures from thin air. It's hard to explain discrepancies. But plus minus 200%, who's counting...

[Cat Boy]

"Whether this was for reassurance or guidance was not explained."

 

Neither. It's simply about expressing power. Trump did this continuously throughout his presidency and even in the campaign before that. 

To tell a blatant lie, with the mutual understanding that both you and the audience/listener (which here includes the people in the meeting, along with the entire Thai media, Thai people, expats and the world at large) know with absolute certainty that the statement has no factual basis, but the audience/listeners are completely powerless, is a bullying ploy that builds the perceived power-over of the speaker and demeans everyone.

 

Its act of raw contempt, just as when he sprayed alcohol hand sanitizer at the press who were asking simple direct questions he did not wish to answer, and later, upon his condemnation, he called it a joke.

 

No one was fooled, neither then, nor now.

[greenmonkey]

nothing but empty words. Its got to the point now where everything that comes out of Prayut's and Anutin's mouths is completely discarded as lies and nonsense. Thailand deserves better.

[Fairynuff]

If it was anyone else saying it I’d feel very optimistic 

[spidermike007]

Vaxxing like this? Oh mercy. Can you not do any better than this? Why one center? Why not ten? Are you guys to cheap? Do the people not deserve comfort, convenience, ease of use and quick jabs?

 

Just spoke to my friend in LA. He went to the Costco parking lot, and got both a Covid test, and a Pfizer jab for free. No lines, no waiting. Done in 15 minutes. 

 

Shame on you, shame on all of the retrograde ministers. Shame on your performance. May you pay a very heavy price for your crimes against your nation.

Well this proves it.... never get high on your own supply Anutin.

[spidermike007]

No. Things will be better when you leave, and your entire super toxic administration follows you overseas into exile. Get out. Get out now.
