[Thaiger]

Apart from the growing evident reality of global inequality of access to vaccines, across Thailand there is still a gap where some people are struggling to get access to their first vaccine while others have had their third booster shot already.

A fourth vaccine seems to be unique to Thailand, with most countries administering 2 vaccines and a few moving forward now with booster vaccine programs.

No. He said that Thailand policy of going with anything they had available, like Sinovac and then a jab of AstraZeneca, is not recognized by countries as being vaccinated. Also some countries do not consider Sinovac a vaccine.

Thanks for that info.  It reads:

 

Which COVID-19 vaccines allow entry to Switzerland?

People who have received one of the following vaccines can enter Switzerland:

• Pfizer/BioNTech (BNT162b2 / Comirnaty® / Tozinameran)
• Moderna (mRNA-1273 / Spikevax / COVID-19 vaccine Moderna)
• AstraZeneca (AZD1222 Vaxzevria®/ Covishield™)
• Janssen / Johnson & Johnson (Ad26.COV2.S)
• Sinopharm / BIBP (SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine (Vero Cell))
• Sinovac (CoronaVac)
• COVAXIN®

>> But this begs the question WHY Anutin was refused entry to that recent WHO-meeting in Switzerland.  Allegedly he had 2 shots of SinoVac (fist one in February) and unclear whether he did had the AZ booster-shot.

And by the end of 2022, some people have got their 8th shot, while others still have 0.
