webfact Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Provincial hospitals throughout Thailand have opened up registration for Pfizer vaccines to at-risk groups and adolescents. This including children aged between 12-18 years old, those who are 12 weeks pregnant or more, those who are aged 60 years and older, and those whose house registrations are in the districts of the hospitals. The vaccines have been made available after Thailand received an additional 700,000 doses of the Pfizer vaccine from the US.

Popular Post Gold Star Posted August 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2021 Getting good vaccines into arms as quickly as possible is the best way out of this mess. Hopefully there will be many more doses of Pfizer and Moderna to come, as other nations discover how far we are behind, and take pity on us. 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post tingtong Posted August 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2021 If Thailand didn't spend the money on 50:50 or 'we travel together' and a couple other things, But instead buys vaccines in a timely manner 6-10 months earlier, Everyone and everything would be better off here now. ( Except the few dozens benefitted heavily from the corruption) 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So to break this down: 1. Over 60s - check 2. 12 weeks pregnant - check 3. Adolescents??? - do they die from Covid like the old and sick? 4. "those whose house registrations are in the districts of the hospitals" - so like anybody in that region (in particular the VIPs?) 5. Underlying conditions - where?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtls2005 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 In the U.S. anyway, Pfizer is the only vaccine approved for 12-18 year olds. There's got to be what, ~6 million in this age group? 350,000? Not sneezing here but my bucket still only has a drop or two in it. I guess the regime feels like they need to do something in this age group, so using their one single bullet against a herd of elephants in musth charging. Good luck with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This additional 700,000 is obviously able to reproduce itself as it seems to be being used for many different groups of people, medics and frontliners, expats, (oh I think that they have now been struck off the list as there were only 45,000 who registered!), the elderly, the vulnerable, children, those who have already been double vaccinated with Sinovac etc. But clearly it is too unstable to ship to Isaan! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong! Thailand actually includes areas outside Bangkok, Phuket and Pattaya! There is, yet again, no mention of any hospital in Isaan where the majority of the population live! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

law ling Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Children suddenly getting a mention ... I wonder if it will turn out that the vast majority of receipents (of this very limited supply) are the children of generals, hi-sos and the well-connected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikke1959 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 I don't understand.. Vaccination for 60 and older and people with underlying diseases I agree, but kids and adolescents giving Pfizer and they can register although there are only a few infected, I don't understand. I don't understand why the working group 20-59 is passed and have to wait for.....???? Sinovac?? Sinopharm?? Maybe left overs of Pfizer??? Maybe never coming Johnson and Johnson??? I understand very good that he one charge don't have a clue how to solve the Covid 19 problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those who are connected and/or can afford it will get Pfizer. Although some like to think that times change.... one's ticket class still doesn't change just because the Titanic is sinking.

rbkk Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 In Thailand I read there are roughly 5 Million 12-18 year olds that will require 2 doses = 10 million doses of Pfizer. Perhaps this 700,000 doses is for a trial on (As Anutin calls them...) "yellow-skinned" kids. “The manufacturer of Sinovac vaccine is planning to register the vaccine for use in children aged over three years," Anutin said. "Once the registration is completed, we would immediately inoculate children in this age group as we would already have the vaccine in stock,” he added. https://www.thestar.com.my/aseanplus/aseanplus-news/2021/06/12/thailand-children-aged-12-18-years-to-get-pfizer-vaccine-in-fourth-quarter-as-cases-keep-surging-in-country-and-tops-193000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are just like the mythical snipe hunt and unicorns; for entertainment purposes only. Until there are vaccines truly available such things are a waste of time and emotion.
