AstraZeneca asks to extend vaccine delivery date amid delays


Recommended Posts

Will we see any wais, sorry or transfers to inactive positions? Probably not. Strangely enough, it's not a Siam Bioscience asking for postponement, it's a patent holder, who has nothing to do with production of the product

Not that strange ... and there aren't really any transfers possible ... ?

Looks like the reporter missed the actual story.  AstraZeneca was NEVER going to deliver 10m doses a month.  Originally 3m a month were ordered by the Thai government.  That was later increased to 5-6m a month after Siam Bioscience Co Ltd was retooled to produce the vaccine. 


According to other reporting, Deputy Public Health Minister Sathit Pitutecha said the 10M doses a month was in fact Thailand's CAPACITY to vaccinate people and NOT the number of vaccines it would get from AstraZeneca.   Sadly, while the first 26m doses of the total 61m were ordered in January, the remaining 35m doses were not ordered until MAY of this year!
