Hundreds of people were left disappointed after waiting in vain to receive vaccinations at Prachuap Hospital.

 

Images shared to social media on Friday (July 30) showed crowds gathered at the hospital with what appeared to distinct lack of social distancing.

 

People commenting online voiced concerned that the waiting crowds could inadvertently form a COVID-19 cluster.

Nothing "appeared"  about it.

How many think that after two shots they are totally immune and cannot transmit the virus?

It's the camera angle.

This was not organised by officials, proper appointments were, as you'd know if you bothered to read the link to the OP.   These people turned up on the basis of a rumour.

Yes, but sadly that is usually how any of us get to hear about where vaccines are being given!  It is all by word of mouth and rumour.  I have been chasing vaccines for months now to no avail!  Until, proper arrangements and announce ments are made, there will always be this rush, because people want to be vaccinated!
