COVAVAX protein subunit vaccine will be administered to some unvaccinated people and those who are allergic to other vaccines, said Thailand’s Disease Control Department Director-General Opart Karnkawinpong, as Thailand formally took delivery Thursday of the first 200,000 doses of the vaccine from Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (QUAD) countries.

 

Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul presided over a ceremony to take delivery of the vaccine, in the company of senior health officials and ambassadors of the QUAD countries, which included Australia, India, Japan and the United States.
