rickudon Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 So another 100 million doses have been 'ordered'. Means nothing without a contractual delivery plan. 10 million doses this year, 90 million next? Vaccine doses cannot be magically produced from thin air. About 9 billion doses have already been ordered, but less than 2 billion delivered ( couldn't get up to date clear figures). There is a long queue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take these other vaccines besides Pfizer or Modera , you can still get infected if exposed. Just not die. Pfizer and Modera seem to be stronger against Covid 19.

It’s a matter of degree, but Pfizer and Moderna are among the vaccines that clinical trials have shown to have greater efficacy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post edwardandtubs Posted May 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 9, 2021 9 hours ago, mtls2005 said: What did he order? When will it be delivered? Kind of basic stuff for a "news" article. Otherwise it's just propoganda. It's clear from the article that he hasn't actually ordered anything. The OP and many posters are confusing 'make an order' with 'give an order'. What Prayuth has done is given an order that somebody else should make an order. And given that there seems to be a 6-18 month delay between making an order and delivery of the order, don't hold your breath. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way to override it as long as the Minister stays in this post. Too much of what needs to happen has to be done by MoPH departments (FDA etc) and staff under the authority of the MoPH. These are complex undertakings with multiple steps and requiring actions by large numbers of trained professionals. I'm sure the CCSA would love to simply do it themselves but they cannot. PM has the power to make decisions.issue orders but he does not have the power to implement them. Orders can be undermined by slow or no implementation. Anutin heads a political party. So he has political clout well beyond his nominal position as Minister of Health and apparently PM feels it is not possible/advisable to remove him, at least so far. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrJ2U Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Nice to hear reason about the Mythical " herd immunity". Everyone needs to be vaccinated plus a booster in 6 months.

Next September, when there is still no mass vaccination, I expect an announcement of a deal for one billion doses, maybe from North Korea. Well you need to order them. Hopefully they'll get the order in tomorrow as its Sunday today and everything is closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nojohndoe Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Scepticism and pessimisim about much of the truth content is a natural result of the general public perceptions and opinions derived from the current shambolic situation that has compromised confidence in the Government. With this new significant wave of infections and deaths the complacency and smug attitudes of seemingly invulnerability has been shattered and the reality of the failure to even attempt to provide the inevitable need for vaccines has been exposed as a huge mistake. The announcement of an executive order to order is somewhat meaningless other than at best it belatedly puts Thailand at the rear of a queue for vaccines that are being produced and distributed according to commercial and political whim and dictate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orders which may or may not be fulfilled, depending on where you are in the pecking order. Not even orders yet. He's instructed his minions to order them. Which will be followed by committee meetings, hand wringing, and a treasure hunt for backhanders and political brownie points before they even become purchase orders. That may take months. Then and only then will they get into the pecking order. Edited May 9, 2021 by impulse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fex Bluse Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 22 hours ago, Jonathan Fairfield said: Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has ordered the procurement of 50 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine from various sources, on top of the 100 million doses procured for this year, to make sure that everyone in the country is inoculated and that there are reserves left over for future use. I have a very strong suspicion China has encouraged Thailand to delay all other vaccines into Thailand so that Sinovac can fill the void. No doubt the Chinese would also be quite happy to pay the 30% backhanders into the pockets of their Sino Thai cousins.
