Not even BoJo begging Ursula to get him back in the EU is more shameful... "never conquered by dirty farangs" : which by the way is a myth. Siam had to "pay" Britain to "protect" it against France and lost huge parts of its territories in the process, both to France and to Britain.

Carrbhoy Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 9 hours ago, TheFishman1 said: I hope they have the second vaccine shot for me on the 27th of this month TiT This for me is the key Risk for critical failure. The 2nd doses will need to ramp up to match the 1st Dose numbers in 4/5 weeks time (Is 2nd Dose 16 weeks?). They either have the supplies in storage or expect supplies to be in place to match the 1st Dose weekly figures. Big big Risk. Having to beg from Peter (Bhutan) to pay Paul at this early stage is a huge Red flag for me. Time will tell of course. Lets say they do have supply in storage / expected supplies to match requirements (big IF), there will be a significantly reduced 1st Dose weekly figures delivered during this next 16 week cycle. So crunching the numbers, the fortunate 20+% of people who have received their 1st Dose / awaiting 2nd Dose & the 12% or so (in a few weeks) who have been fully vaccinated will be happy but nervous about supplies. The other c. 70% of the population will soon realise that they are several months away from even getting a 1st Dose (unless extremely fortunate) as whatever supply which is available switches to cover the 2nd Doses. This reality will hit in 6 weeks or so when the 1st Dose numbers drop like a stone. What then? Interesting times..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orchidfan Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Slightly off topic, but was waiting for a return flight from Isaan to DMK...think it was Thai airways, but low and behold in rolls a Royal Bhutan A320. We made it ok. Guess it was borrowed or wet leased. Made me wonder why in earth they had to do that ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJRS1301 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) 9 hours ago, inThailand said: So the countless times they said they purchased more vaccines were just big porkies? What a surprise. Well they purchased future supplies, after the supplying companies fulfilled the pre-existing contracts with other countries. Your order has been noted, Your order will be dispatched when supplies become available. Take your ticket , payment in advance thank-you ( we are sus about your credit rating) join the queue, wait for the delivery. We will notify you three days in advance of dispatch. So no not porkies really. Edited August 17, 2021 by RJRS1301 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The final decisions had their origins way above them when it looked like Thailand had dodged the bullet Since discussing that would involve forbidden subjects "we people" wisely stay away from it so get off your high horse, "genius". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And those who overthrow a democratically elected government do not step down. Ever. No matter what. And by manipulating and re-writing the constitution they have ensured they are there for life. Dim low coup supporters on here were warned, constantly, for years that this would be the eventual outcome. Too many were completely obsessed with the Shinawatras, you see. Many still are. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

placnx Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 5 hours ago, Midwit said: The biggest problem is that the goal of 100% vaccines is not vital. There is very little benefit to jabbing an 18 year old. 100% of people over 70 should have the shot. After that 100% of anyone over 60 or with sever health issues. After that open it up to anyone that wants it and let’s get back to life. This is no longer true. Delta has completely changed the picture. We now know that young people can suffer, even die, or get Long Covid. The other problem is that the young can infect some elders whose immunity is not strong in spite of having been vaccinated. I visited Bhutan 3 times and do not remember seeing a hospital. That's a big difference with Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post club Posted August 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2021 What a embarrassment, Why cant you pay them for it?
