Popular Post webfact Posted January 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 17, 2021 Safety of Thai people most important for vaccination: PM By The Nation Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has said he would not risk Thai lives by rushing to approve vaccines that have not been fully tested. .In a message on his Facebook page on Sunday, the PM refused to let Thais be guinea pigs. The PM alluded to recent news about side-effects or adverse effects from Covid-19 vaccine in some foreign countries. He said Thailand must wait to hear opinions of experts on whether the symptoms were vaccine-related, or other factors, such as certain medical conditions, physical condition, or age, including whether the rate of side-effects is acceptable? He said some countries wanted to start vaccination early, even before the efficacy and safety of the vaccine had been fully tested. "I have an important policy -- to ensure that the vaccine is safe, so it can be used for Thai people," he said. The National Vaccine Committee will advise and closely supervise the whole process, he said. Success in curbing Covid-19 can be better achieved by cooperation and implementation of various measures, especially wearing a mask at all times, frequently washing hands, and social distancing. In addition, if you want the disease control to be effective, scan the QR Code "ThaiChana" every time you are in public, and using the app "MorChana" will be very good, he said.

Sure bet that many world governments have paid mightily in advance for vaccines that may be unsafe, useless or not thoroughly tested. 15 2 2 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Blumpie Posted January 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2021 Oh pahlease... All the vaccines so far have been proven safe. Thailand isn't breaking any ground on how safe or unsafe they really are. You are doing like the rest of the world - act like what we are, dogs on a leash. 7 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are so concerned with the safety of the vaccine, then why didn't Thailand make their own vaccine? In a Thai lab, using thai equipment, bottled by a thai company complete with a thai logo stamped onto it. I know why, because they CANT!!! 21 1 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post NorthernRyland Posted January 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2021 (edited) None of these vaccines have been tested to the same standard as was previously required. Previous record was 4 years and these COVID ones haven't even got 12 months behind them. Anyone that claims to know what the long term consequences are is lying. We all know China's record on health scandals very well so obviously Thais should be worried about this vaccine. Unless you're 80 years old I wouldn't even consider this until at least 100 million Chinese have taken it and then wait 12 months.
