rbkk Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 (edited) Sinopharm has not yet been approved by the Thailand FDA for use in this age group. Interestingly 3 days ago Moderna was approved for this age group, but no mention of Sinopharm......https://thainews.prd.go.th/en/news/detail/TCATG210917125425150 ......even though Thailand’s Chulabhorn Royal Academy were talking about it on 6th August 2021. https://thainews.prd.go.th/en/news/detail/TCATG210806141828272 2000 kids were vaccinated with the unapproved drug today. (Story in the Bangkok Post, no links allowed) The student vaccination program was/is supposed to start on 4th October 2021. I'm guessing someones getting impatient.

Heng Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 As expected. Cheaper and in greater supply. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dario Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 The ministry of public health said students 12-18 year will be given 2 Pfizer shots starting October 3 or 4. So, what is this news about kids have been given Sinopharm vaccine? Does the government backtrack on their promise? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brommers Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 So, yet another example of the Thai government using citizens as lab rats. Despicable exploitation of the population. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Credo Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 I'd be very interested to know just what vaccine is being given to all the politicians' children and what vaccine those making the medical decisions for thousands are giving to their kids? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbkk Posted September 21, 2021 Author Share Posted September 21, 2021 No doubt some sort of sweetener for 4000 parents (2000 kids x mum and dad) to not bother waiting till October 4th for a better vaccine for their child. Thais do love to gamble. Perhaps the school fees will be "Adjusted"...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they were probably on those vaccine tours or the rumoured black market stuff. A large number no doubt were freely vaccinated by western countries health depts on landing on their way to their boarding schools.

The 2nd dose of Pfizer for males of this age group needs to be seriously considered especially as the 1st dose already gives 97% protection.

rbkk Posted September 21, 2021 Author Share Posted September 21, 2021 Thai FDA : ".........resolved not to reduce the minimum age of Sinopharm vaccine recipients to 3 years old as proposed because there was not enough information about the safety of the vaccine administration and the company did not submit any data on the efficacy of the vaccine among recipients aged 3-17 years....." https://tna.mcot.net/english-news-784732 guinea pigs....impatient.......stoking the "scary" fire....

Please give us the source of your claim "the Pfizer 1st dose already gives 97% protection"! Because this is not true, that's why I ask. I am sure that you misinterpret some figures you might have seen somewhere.
