anchadian Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Prasert said there are irregularities in the procurement process of Sinovac where there were 18 deals and some of them have different prices. He said the discrepancy in pricing led to a difference of 2.9 billion baht: "Whose pockets did this money go to?" https://twitter.com/ThaiEnquirer/status/1432577417168637953 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the clothing stores had stuff already working, sprucing up the shops, dressing manikins, washing windows....all getting ready for the return of customers tomorrow. It was nice, under the circumstances, to view things that suggest hope. I have no inside information as to whether the Covid #s are accurate or just goal-seeking. I have an opinion, but that is of no value to anyone but me. What I hope gets researched is the behavior---if that is the correct term---of the Delta variant. Looking at the graph from India, and assuming it is accurate, it may well be that the Delta strain either kills you or you kill it. Either way is a negative for the virus, as it loses its host by killing it or being killed by it. Ideally this is the case, and as soon as enough folks get vaxxed with an effective jab against the worst effects of Delta, we might be done with it. Now if only no new variants emerge..... If only it was that simple. Israel reimposed mask mandates within days of reopening and is now deploying booster shoots to calm the escalating situation. UK has rising hospitalisations and deaths. A Scottish health advisor was yesterday warning about the possibility of a reverse in lockdown restrictions easing if the situation continues. The vaccines wane after six months. Think of mice running on a wheel in a cage. Edited August 31, 2021 by GStewart70 Edit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the Junta facade of covid is in massive decline in a week and alls well, nearly 50% vaccinated etc lets open up the country is perpetuated to the point of ridicule which they are well accustomed to.

2 is 1 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) I think i even little believe these numbers. Not every province "fake" numbers. Like in North East numbers have come way down! People has isolate them self coz they are scared, even mom&pop shops not allow anyone to enter shop! They bring stuff in front door . Bars and restaurants has been open all the time like in last year, different is now nobody go to eat out , people only buy takeaway food if not make in home.

"It sets a 50 per cent vaccine effectiveness threshold for listing in the emergency use list. So there is some assurance of a minimum and verified standard," he said. Its important to put that in context of what was actually stated which was: @ 6:47 "there were good reasons to only count the mrna Pfizer and Moderna vaccines in the initial stages of their vaccination program because of the efficacy, when most of population was not vaccinated it was important to get them inoculated with the most effective vaccines available, but as our vaccination coverage increased to 70%, we are collectively more resilient so our considerations have changed and what is more important now is the difference between those who are vaccinated and not vaccinated, so less so between different vaccine brands. So from 10th Aug we will be more inclusive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
