snoop1130 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 A total of 2,542 pregnant women and 134 new-born babies were found infected with COVID-19 between April 1st this year and August 28th and, among these, 68 women and 24 newborn babies have died, said CCSA Spokesman Dr. Taweesin Visanuyothin today (Monday). Dr. Taweesin reemphasized the need for pregnant women to be given priority for inoculation, along with people over 60 and those afflicted with any of the seven underlying diseases, as he sought public understanding over the need to vaccinate these people ahead of others. The provinces with most infected pregnant are Bangkok (488), Samut Sakhon (449), Pathum Thani (101), Samut Prakan (93), Narathiwat (87), Songkhla (87), Tak (86), Ayutthaya (77), and Khon Kaen (63). 37,357 pregnant women have received their first vaccine doses, while 3,533 others have received two jabs, out of the target of 500,000 women.

Such a tragedy, could have been avoided with a few extra precautions and some efficient vaccines in a timely manner. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaan sailor Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Such a tragedy and so sad. Someone owes the world some apologies, and perhaps some reparations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
