mjakob007 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 5 hours ago, webfact said: Thai PM set to get first jab - AstraZeneca - as first batch of two vaccines arrive today Picture: Sanook Health minister and Deputy Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul told the press after a MoPH meeting yesterday that the first batches of Covid-19 vaccine would arrive today. There are 117,000 doses of AstraZeneca vaccine and the rest are Sinovac from China, reported Sanook. Elsewhere it was reported that there are 200,000 doses of Sinovac in the first batch. PM Prayuth Chan-ocha will get the first dose, said Anutin, "because he is our leader". He denied there was any favoritism connected to this. "Lung Too" as Sanook referred to Prayuth, will be getting the AstraZeneca jab. Anutin said this one didn't have any restrictions related to age. Dr Opas will be announcing the date of the PM's jab. Anutin claimed that the AstraZeneca vaccine would have arrived earlier, even last month, but the firm had been concerned by what he called a "drama" at the end of last year and "didn't dare" send it. The health minister's comments can be seen in the context of criticism aimed at the Thai government for the slow rollout of vaccine, notes Thaivisa.

He didn't actually say which vaccine, loong too would be getting but probably the Sino vaccine, maybe he could have a bob each way and have astra as the first shot and Sinovac second. I've heard that idea touted as being a good way to get good immunity. He doesn't need immunity as he is already immune to every thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomazbodner Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 7 hours ago, webfact said: Anutin said this one didn't have any restrictions related to age. Actually it's the other way around. Astra Zeneca has not been tested on anyone older than 56 (sometimes quoted 56, sometimes 65), and it's mostly this vaccine that is not recommended for anyone older due to lack of testing. As for testing, it was probably the most shoddy certification testing attempt ever witnessed, with wrong doses administered, after wrong period of time for second dose, etc. Good part that came out of it was that lower doses were more effective, and longer periods of time between shots make vaccine more effective as well. Alas only 22% effective against South African strain... Still, many times things are discovered by accident. Like strongest glue ever Post-Its. But this is something getting injected into our bodies. Surely they could have a little bit better testing plan and execution? Or has Oxford's academic skills all gone down the drain? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's already explained in another article. China's vaccine is proven safe to use in clinical trials for 18 to 59 years old and untested for 60 years and above. The Thai PM is over 60 years old.
