He's done such a great job so far. So good that the population is "celebrating" with tear gas and rubber bullets in the streets of the capital.

Unless they are frontline medical staff I suggest they get in line behind the people who have not received their first vaccination yet.

Well, ten of them anyway. Sometimes Granny comes too.

I'm still waiting, as a high risk, for this current Pfizer batch be distributed...it doesn't seem that it is being done.

Again, he's talking about "front line medical personnel" again.  I thought they had their shots last week.

Yes, there will be casualties...but in order to 'reboot' this country MASSIVE change needs to happen! The disposal of Anutin et al. MUST take place in order to move forwards. This man has to be one of the worst politicians in Thai history...a COMPLETE & UTTER TOOL!!!

The protesters need those 3500 weapons and million rounds of amo

Sorry @mic, but as far as anyone can tell, you may as well ask the wall, there is so little happening on anything like an organised and programmed basis.

That was never a promise. Though the US donated the jabs, said jabs were given to the Thai government to do as they wished with them. On the Thailand org chart, expats are just below soi dogs.

[Morpheus]

what he didnt mention was by the end of the year Thailand will have 10 million delta variant cases because of his incompetency.

That's why he's confirming that it will only be enough vaccine for half the population, single jab. You didn't think they were going to waste some perfectly good submarine money on the great unwashed did you? I mean why change now?

'The doctor has also criticised the ministry’s decision to reserve 40,000 of the donated Pfizer doses for foreigners and Thais who need to travel overseas. Tossaporn says the policy violates the terms of the donation, which the US made with the aim of seeing vulnerable groups vaccinated as a priority.'

 

Silly me, I understood doctors to save human life and not human life by nationality! Vaccinating foreigners just because they are foreigner would be wrong the same applies for not vaccinating vulnerable foreigners because the foreigners.

 The US and or Pfizer would NEVER stipulate when donating that a specific nationality(s) i.e. ‘foreigners’ be excluded. To make the statement ‘violates the terms’ Mr Tossaporn must have read it(?). I cant see why this document can not  be made available to the public so could the Thaiger publish it? Should Mr Tossaporn statement be incorrect would it be considered ‘fake-news’?

 Pleasing to know doctors in the US & UK (& many other countries)  have inoculated huge numbers of nonnational, without chargenor consideration of where they reside.

 I’m sure the English readers will be amused by the doctor’s name, fitting it could be said!

 P.S. I shower twice a day and I don’t bark! Vaccine please!

With change there is sacrifice.

Only 40+ percent protection against Delta so they are getting rid of inventory! The new fancy shot against Delta for those willing to become serial dosers will be soon available.
