First batch of Moderna vaccine expected to arrive in Thailand in November

[snoop1130]

 

The first lot of the Moderna mRNA vaccine is expected to arrive in Thailand in November, according to a statement issued by ZP Therapeutics Company, a unit of Zuellig Pharma, the importer of Moderna vaccine in Thailand.

 

A total of 1.9 million doses of Moderna vaccine will be delivered by the end of this year. The remainder – 6.8 million doses – of the make, ordered by the Government Pharmaceutical Organization (GPO), will be delivered to Thailand in the first quarter of next year, said ZP Therapeutics.

 

Although global demand for COVID-19 vaccines have far exceeded the rate of supply, the company said that it has been working with all parties in Thailand to make sure that enough of its vaccine will be delivered as quickly as possible, adding that the company is fully supportive of the Thai government’s mass vaccination plan.

Well, they’d hardly be against it.

is  that the same as  October?

<deleted> hitting the fan as people asking for money back as worried they won't get their order till next year. Who can blame them? The government were slow to order on behalf of private hospitals then said money up front. Many who have ordered have not put their names down for free government jabs.. Can't see people getting their money back now.????

[matchar]

November 31st right? ????

[ikke1959]

Maybe it is the governement ordered vaccine.. I still think that the private hospitals will get there vaccine this month. but the Government will do everything they can to push people to get the Sinovac and Astra first. That is their profit and Moderna not. I think that some people don't want to wait and choose for Sinovac jab, so tyhey have to delay their Moderna, because it will come "suddenly" and they can not get jabbed because they just got their Sinovac... It is the Government game

My private hospital sent me a text saying first or second quarter of next year with a “no guarantees” statement following it.  Oh well…it is what it is.

Given the widening availability of vaccines in Thailand, when Moderna actually arrives becomes less and less important IMO.  I suspect many will simply use it as a booster in 6 months - that is my plan, confirmed by Samitivej through whom I placed the Moderna order.

Wow, how many suckers paid 4000 baht for an Oct delivery?

I honestly don't think that they would be bright enough to think of that one. No, the whole "Moderna pay up front for delivery by October" was a straightforward scam. They knew that they would not have a chance of getting any until next year, but could not resist the opportunity to get the cash early.

 

If you have paid up front I sympathize, but I doubt you will see your vaccines until well into next year, if ever!

Sadly they could be having 2 shots of Pfizer or AZ free of charge. Many already double jabbed.

What a drag.

 

We were hoping mid October.

 

Such a screwed up way Thailand orders these vaccines.

 

Get the damned GPO out and let the Private hospitals order there own like they do with there other vaccines and medicines.

 

Everyone is so sick of this inept government.

My Thai wife isn't eligible for Pfeizer.

 

Now its there mixing useless Sinovac with Astra Zeneca for Thais.

 

Useless mixture for traveling.

 

Hopefully the Moderna comes November.

pah I  ponied  nothing and got two  pfizer thru the thank a yank donation and the Thai  hospital free

Glad I declined that pre paid October scam. Asked nurses at Loei hospital when they really thought it was coming they all said the end of the year MAYBE. It would not have worked for me anyway because I travel to the USA at the end of the month. I would have had no time for vaccination.

Read the article, It says November and that's just the first delay. I was told end of the year by the hospital staff i talked too. I decided not to pre pay

[watboy]

MedPark is telling me mid November. I can wait, but am worried I can't get the 2nd shot 28 days after the first, and if delayed excessively it won't be a recognized vaccine. Of the 1.9mn first shipment, RedCross will take the first 1mn, so only 900k this year for pre paid.

I don't think the "government" will allow private hospitals to receive and administer Moderna before them. It might only be a few days but the regime can't be shown to be outperformed by private industry.

Got my money down for two doses already but received 2 free doses already under the Phuket Sandbox program ????

Getting my second Pfeizer tomorrow.

 

I'm trying to get my Thai wife and her elderly mother vachinated with Moderna.

 

I guess next month.

[Isaan sailor]

Sure glad I registered and received two Pfizer doses.  Prepaid Moderna for wife looks iffy now.
