From the Wiki page posted earlier: "DENVax or TAK-003 is a recombinant chimeric vaccine with DENV1, DENV3, and DENV4 components on a dengue virus type 2 (DENV2) backbone originally developed at Mahidol University in Bangkok and now funded by Inviragen (DENVax) and Takeda (TAK-003)" (It is in phase 3 trials now and appears to work much better than the only approved one.) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dengue_vaccine Edited June 2, 2020 by rwill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think many would pay $800---$1,000 to travel to Thailand if had effective/safe vacine and none available in their own country especially if no Covid in Thailand. Heck might evencause some to move here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did not understand mm measurements at all and assumed all measurements on the plan was cm.. They actually built one base and the dimensions were so insane you would wonder why they continued to a finished product without stopping and asking if something was wrong.. His company was let go from the project... Professionals...... Pay peanuts you get monkeys. I work here in the construction sector for 7-8 years in the 90's and believe me there are some fantastic tradesmen to be had, not all but a great number of good ones.

Then they don't trust themselves by counting it often 3 times. I like to play along with the stupidity by counting it out to them 1 2 3 4 twice then watch as they repeat it, oh dear. I asked a metal shop to make me something the other day, what followed was painful, gave them the sizes in "mm" they hadn't a clue I had to translate it into CM, just painful. Thais this Thais that with your experiences few Thais. What about those people in UK who burn the 5g Tower because they believe that Internet tower spread the virus. lol This is so deadly stupidity that leads people dying like valueless animal in UK. What a wasteful that you are safe here in Thailand during this pandamic while more than 10 Thai people sadly died from Covid in UK.

Seriously though, its commendable but like reinventing the wheel with so much work happening all around the world... Perhaps the tourists will have to be vaccinated with thai produced vaccines? Of course , original vaccine will be created somewhere else like many others.

SupermarineS6B Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Don't worry, Anutin and his brains trust are having a slap up lunch and trying to work out if they can inject Sang Som and flog it as a vaccine..... Masks and social distancing ? Only for the proles...... Posts calling attention to the photos identified them as being taken May 20, not long after restaurants were allowed to reopen under strict rules.

Herd immunity works for all kinds of other diseases as it will with this one, 5G, i can honestly say what you know about 5G could probably be written on a grain of rice, and who said inject Dettol and alcohol to kill the virus........ ?

GAZZPA Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Pretty unbelievable. The whole world is developing a vaccine for the purpose of beating the virus, only Thailand would link the effort they are making to money and tourism. Life is so cheap in Thailand, not much more you can say really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when the vaccine is developed eleswhere (which it will be) are Thailand going to continue throwing money and resources at developing one for themselves? Is that what you are saying? How will they "instantly manufacture" a vaccine that has been developed somewhere else? So when the whole world has ordered the vaccine from somewhere else Thailand are going to tell the Thai people to wait until they have developed their own?

Thailand like all countries has some smart people and some not so smart people, I work with some extremely talented mechanical engineers (Thai) so one should not tar them all with the stupid brush. I sort of agree, there are of course smart people in Thailand. Anyone who says otherwise is just being silly. However in my line of work I travel a lot and Thailand is the only country I have ever worked where a legitimate interview question is "can you read and write". The Thai education system is pretty bad (excluding the International schools of course) and way behind countless other countries, frankly I think for the biggest economy is SE Asia it should be dealing with this now. It should have a much better quality of state education going forward if it doesn't want to fall behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
