A friend in Pattaya was diagnosed with Covid 3 weeks ago.  He had to drive to Bangkok to get Paxlovid, about B24,000 at Bangkok Hospital.  The Paxlovid seemed to work and he began to feel normal in a weeks time, no more fatigue after 2 weeks.

Normally, BPH has stock, about 27,000. 

(Right now, for instance, they have it)

A well-off farang I know used his connections to get one of the first vaccinations available here, one of those reserved for the slum dwellers of Khlong Toey, where covid was rampant.

After he got his third shot, he started to tell people not to get vaccinated,  because everybody vaccinated would die within 3 years. 

Guess he was wrong.

Covid will remain until it is eradicated which is unlikely same as the common Flu virus. We accept what Flu is and is accepted. Covid is the same treat it as you would treat flu. The flu jab does not stop you catching flu same as a covid jab so don't be worried catching Covid just take your jab if offered.

The differences between covid and influenza are:

Covid still is more deadly for vulnerable groups (which include most AN members).

Covid19 is easier transmitted than influenza. 

There is long covid,  but there is no long flu.

 

Otherwise,  you are right.

He is still alive,  after more than 3 years. 

I asked him how that could be possible,  but somehow he wasn't interested in the subject.

ahh so you saw one... that does not mean all or even many or most.. You base our opinion on one event only. Also, you have no idea if that person had gotten the vaccine if he would have lived or died. So you base your opinion on one event without knowing i he would have died even with the vaccine, which so many other people did die even with the vaccine. 

 

Indeed. Nobody regrets not taking it.
