Raphus Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 @madmitch my thoughts exactly. A prime political statement to hide the fact that Thailand has only started procuring the vaccine, and deliveries will be so far behind the rest of the world. Political diversion !!

The question is, do you trust them? No drugs are approved this quickly so this vaccine is novel in that regard and I don't like to be an early adopter of new technology. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raphus Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 @NorthernRyland contrary to your statement. only yesterday and a few days ago on ‘TalkRadio and ‘The One Show’ respectively did they have one of the leading scientists explaining that they have been working with these types of viruses for the past 10 years (sars and mers). She said that due to this historical data gathered, they could work straight away on covid and that new technology was able to strip the sticky spikes (corona) off the virus to create the vaccine. I do not agree with your statement or any founding truth behind what you have stated. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Isaan sailor Posted January 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2021 Willing to bet they will find the Chinese vaccine as completely safe and totally effective for Thai people. Let the dirty farangs take the more expensive, unsafe and less effective Pfizer vaccine right? That’s OK with me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dialemco Posted January 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2021 Unfortunately Covid vaccines are not readily available. The more Covid vaccines that can be produced and found to be safe for use the better for everyone. Vaccines are the only way that Covid can be controlled. Vaccines are so important as the viras is mutating all the time becoming more and more infectous. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Below is a reply I received 2 days ago from the Consular Reply service at British Embassy, Bangkok "Thank you for your enquiry of 16/01/2021. The UK government are exploring vaccine options for people in the UK and their response to vaccine development is available to read on GOV.UK.If you live in Thailand, you will need to approach the Thai authorities for their decisions about vaccines and how they might be developed and administered.You can keep up to date about any aspect of living in Thailand on our website:' https://www.gov.uk/guidance/living-in-thailand " Conclusion:- It seems the UK Trade Mission in Bangkok has no interest in helping Expats who are probably paying UK Income Tax on their pension(s). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course. Comes from "7/11". So can't be bad. 7/11: CP group (richest Thai billionaires) had invested in the Chinese vaccine company last year. That these billionaires are of Chinese origin is not meant racist, OK. Do you smell it? And of course in Thai media they tell their fellow citizens: don't listen to fake news from abroad. Trust in our news: it's effective and safe. Edited January 18, 2021 by KhunBENQ 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manufacturers are always trying to perfect the development. Not sure what your point is. My point was on the development of the Thai based vaccines, but regards the comment I made on the AZ one, yes the Thailand hub is just a production facility, but it has never produced a vaccine before and it has to perfect the process first even having the necessary ingredients and technology from AZ. Currently AZ are checking on the quality control of this development in Thailand. Although I have no doubt this will happen. Here's an explainer on the current progress of the development, starts at 42.00 its not an easy listen however as the good doctor is trying his best at English 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean60 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 By Thai people he means the generals and the very Elite. The hard working man and women and CHILDREN of this country are not his or his governments concern. This is why they have not purchased the vaccine in appropriate time. What a BS he his delivering to people. People in other countries are not guinea pigs. They are voters. Something which you do not care much about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think the monks will take the vaccine? Why? That would go against their principles as they would be practicing attachment to their bodies. If they get sick and die, it doesn't matter because their body is just a vessel. To become attached only creates unhappiness. They should be fine with getting the virus and dying.

Antonymous Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 (edited) Government reactions to Covid including their choice of vaccine are all influenced by politics and money. Thailand is no different. China has already banned the use of the Pfizer and BioNTec vaccines. Now wait for western countries to ban Sinovax. There’s a report on this here in German. https://deutsche-wirtschafts-nachrichten.de/508914/Nach-Todesfaellen-in-Norwegen-China-fordert-Streichung-des-Impfstoffs-von-Pfizer-und-BioNTec A translation: China demands that the BioNTec / Pfizer corona vaccine be canceled worldwide. Previously, 23 people in Norway had died after being vaccinated with the vaccine. Beijing thinks this is because of the vaccine. But behind China's warning could also be the aim of badmouthing Western vaccines in order to sell their own vaccine as part of a “vaccine war”.
