Time to lobby our Embassies and Astrazeneca I think. Otherwise we are looking at the Jab by the end of year or later by which time Thailand will probably have reached heard immunity. Have already done that. None of them are interested 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, other countries are prioritizing the at risk first. UK and USA have none of this walk up rubbish. Especially when you have limited supply. This actually gives the more able more priority than the at risk, who need to stay safe. Just like all those early pictures I saw of people queueing and being vaccinated - all young.

Nothing really changed from the time of the first announcement of "Thais first" by Anutin. Some of the later statements finessed it, but they all amounted to the same thing. It's just the way things are, here. Too bad our embassies refuse to demand the same treatment Chinese nationals get. But our Western governments appear weak, ineffectual and indifferent. What treatment do Chinese nationals get? Is there some kind of conspiracy theory floating around I'm unaware of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Halliday Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) The dear wonderful Anutin, the racist, said covid was spread by us dirty farang. Yet when the Thai govt officials slipped across the border to Burma and Cambodia to go whoring and gambling, then brought the virus into Thailand, Prayut tells the media to shut up! Let's be honest, this country has so many wonderful people and I love them dearly, but anyone in a uniform is a complete Nazi. From Prayut to the SS that control Hua Hin immigration. The vaccine plan is 3rd world but I suspect we will get it privately within 3 months for 3 to 5k. The country is on its knees.

shdmn Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 I don't know what people are belly aching about being back of the bus. You will probably be front of the bus with the premium vaccine if you can pay for it. They need to be sensitive about what they say because Thais will resent foreigners being able to jump the queue by paying. So I can sort of see both sides of it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against the Indian strain, these 2 vaccines are garbage:Singapore announces new restrictions after vaccinated airport workers become infected.

DogNo1 Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 I agree with shdmn. Also, I think that the strategy all along has been to only supply the locally produced AZ vaccine along with the Chinese vaccine. I doubt that any other vaccines will be imported. The government is only requesting the Moderna vaccine just now and its orders are backlogged so Thailand is not likely to receive any doses for a long time even if it does now place a formal order. With limited vaccine doses available the government can't be seen to allow foreigners to go first by paying more than Thais. I hope that it will turn out that some foreigners can be included as the Thais get vaccinated. Of course, if the India/Nepal variant gets into Thailand, all bets are off. I will immediately book a flight back to America to be vaccinated shortly after my arrival. I don't plan to return to Thailand after that but will live out my remaining years in a retirement center in Pennsylvania. BTW, the Thai medical establishment is plenty angry about the situation. They would have liked imported vaccines to be available much sooner but apparently greed won out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
