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 according to the ThaiGer article he also had the AZ booster-shot.

Good question. Is his hatred for us international news?

Well his "Dirty Farang" outburst made international news, so perhaps this is a bit of payback.

Anutin . . . Prawit? You tell me . . . there's just so much empty space there.  (Sorry @Russell, you beat me to the 'empty' gag!) 

Great move by the Swiss, though, all things considered, to gently ease these creatures into their rightful political ranking, i.e. unimportant.

Well. Something just came back and bit them in the rear-end. But didn't they all think they were so ahead of the game and every one else by jabbing first while the commoners were left to rot in the peon hell?..

Just as well no one's stretched the Swiss angle a bit further with Toblerone's or yodelling .. But back on track TukTuk above has hit the nail firmly on the head in his post ..
