Popular Post VinnieK Posted November 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 8, 2022 Most vaxxed ppl that I know have had Covid already.(afterwards) One of them, (Thai woman), developed myocarditis after the 'v' and a few weeks later lost her mind. I had mild Covid myself, in the early months. Never took the 'v' Too many questions still un-answered about the origin of this disease and the efficacy of vaccines imo Bat soup?....???????? 21 3 8 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post wombat Posted November 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 8, 2022 Er...once again... The injection does not stop you getting covid it is not a vaccination that imunises it only lessens the severity if you catch covid. Am I wrong? 23 2 10 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TheFishman1 Posted November 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 8, 2022 It seems like all the people who are vaccinated if they do catch it it’s a very mild thing last thing a few days but yet after millions have received the vaccination there’s still people out there who refuse to get the vaccine TIT 4 2 3 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted November 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 8, 2022 This is a nothing burger. The subsequent variants are getting weaker and weaker. The numbers in Thailand are far below what you would normally see from the flu. I got it. It was like a mild flu. Let's move on. 18 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post NorthernRyland Posted November 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2022 100% chance this is total B.S. These so-called vaccines do nothing to prevent transmission and this is now public and well known information outside of the 3rd world.

Popular Post swm59nj Posted November 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2022 The vaccines prevent you from getting seriously sick. Not really prevent you from getting it. And keep in mind. The Moderna boosters in Thailand. They are generation one type. Not the newest that protects against Omicron and the latest variants. The number of hospitalizations and serious illness are way down. Due to the vaccines. And the question is. Are people who say “ Oh they had symptoms and it was nothing “. Did they get tested and actually have Covid? Or did they have the flu or viral infection? Thinking they had Covid? And I find the people that are not vaccinated or downplay the vaccine . If they test positive and have serious symptoms or are hospitalized. They whine about how they should have gotten vaccinated. 5 3 1 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Flink Posted November 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2022 But what, precisely, is "fully vaccinated"? Since the efficacy of the vaccine boosters in terms of time protected varies wildly from vaccine to vaccine and person to person. Plus, as many have said, it won't stop you catching Covid, or spreading it (much like the masks). So, is 5 boosters fully vaccinated? what about in 4 months time? Will 6 boosters be? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ChrisKC Posted November 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2022 This post is about all those hospitalizations re covid and suggests more to me than scaremongering and that there are probably many more infected out there than the zero being stated in the Bangkok Post every day. It also suggests that if we believe that covid is a mild flu, that for some it is a lot more serious. I therefore support this post and that it is justified in alerting us that covid has not gone away. It may be a blip, who knows? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderna and Pfizer have their up-to-date bivalent vaccines called Moderna/Spikevax and Pfizer's Comirnaty respectively which will provide better protection against newer Covid-19 variants including Omicron. Singapore MOH has approved both vaccines and made available to the population. I called up a private hospital in Bangkok to enquire of their availability and was told that they were non available at the present moment. Perhaps pending approval. Hope both new vaccines will be available soon. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
