p414 Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 I read on Yahoo today that Thailand is mixing Astra Zeneca with sinovac... Does anyone know the truth of this?.. If so are they informing people getting Astra that it is a 'mixture'? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be getting the mixer thing mixed up. What is popular right now ( For Thailand ) is the Sinovac jab first followed by the AstraZeneca jab second........ 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a reasonable strategy what with the shortage of AZ they were experiencing. https://t.co/JvZ7XOEqdl Thats quite a paragraph in that link where Anutin says "MP's should not criticize Sinovac, to protect the Thai public and avoid harming ties with China"...... nonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that doesn’t mean mixing SV and AZ is a bad strategy. In fact it’s looking like a very good one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Australia is having similar problems I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been some uncertainty regarding whether the British government would officially recognise the Astrazeneca vaccine made in Thailand. The UK Vaccine Minister - Mr Nadhim Zahawi recently signalled that the UK would accept all versions of Astrazeneca. He told a House of Commons debate that UK Nationals who have been vaccinated oveseas will be able to talk to their GP, go through what vaccine they have had, and have it registered with the NHS that they have been vaccinated. GPs will have to vet people as to whether the vaccine they had received overseas was approved for use in the UK, He also hinted that those who are not registered with a GP in the UK, that all travellers from abroad who had received vaccines authorised for use in the UK, would also have their vaccines recognised as proof of immunity and would not be required to self quarantine. So in answer to your question - No, I don't need anything else cleared up!! Edited September 3, 2021 by Havenstreet1940 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
