Popular Post hotchilli Posted August 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2021 7 hours ago, webfact said: The request to tap vaccines from Bhutan, a country of less than 1 million people, reflects efforts to plug gaps in Thailand's chaotic vaccine rollout, after AstraZeneca said it could supply the country with about five to six million monthly doses, about half of what the government had targeted. The government made false claims about the roll-out from day One. Now they're looking for donations and handouts from the world... which last year they made clear they didn't need. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geisha Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Are there any charts showing the nationality details ,ex new cases, hospitalisation, ICU, recoveries, deaths, and then foreigners, locals, migrants .?

Popular Post Bkk Brian Posted August 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2021 The government is still defending its decision to buy Sinovac. Despite international studies that show that the vaccine is less effective against the Delta variant, the government insists that it is making the right choice for the Thai people. Government spokesman Anucha said that mixing the AstraZeneca and Sinovac vaccine is effective against Delta. He says this is necessary because of a lack of vaccines until the mRNA vaccines get here in September. https://twitter.com/ThaiEnquirer/status/1427551954658467842 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchadian Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 1 hour ago, MikeyIdea said: Just hit an interesting snag. I registered for the vaccine on [email protected] a while back. I'm a permanent resident so I selected the permanent resident option and included copy of passport, my alien book and the red police book. All nicely scanned, crisp and clear. I don't plan to leave Thailand so I don't have a re-entry visa. Got an email today stating that my vaccine request cannot be processed due to lack of required visas... I can only think of 2 possible options: 1) You must have a re-entry permit even though one is not required if you don't want to leave the country 2) Perhaps it's the same as the land transport department at Chatuchak. They refused to let me re-register my car because I didn't have a visa expiry date. I explained that it's difficult for immigration to know when I will die - as a permanent resident is allowed to stay in the country for life, making a few Thai's queueing around me laugh. That didn't impress them but it made me happy. They are not making it easy for foreigners to get vaccinated https://twitter.com/RichardBarrow/status/1427556002795196422 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These folks must be on the crazy juice......order, order, and order more of a vaccine that costs more and obviously assists a member of the 1% club as well as filling more pockets.

Check the stats on that not the stats from the beginning.
