What has Thailand done to seek license to produce Astra Zeneca in Thailand? Itwould at least be part of the solution. Good on Japan for making a donation! But the old saying "Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach a man how to fish...you feed him for a lifetime. I am only disappointed in my own country for not donating Astra Zeneca. We are swimming in it here.!!! Just not enough Pfizer. I wonder if Thailand ould do swap deals with other countries. It works by countries giving their surplus vaccines to be "Paid back" when the receiving country gets the orders they placed.

Japan has produced 23,000,000 AZ doses and is giving them away.

How many doses has Siam Bioscience delivered in the same time frame?

Isn't it ironic that a "producing" country, like Thailand, needs the donations of the very vaccines they produce on their own shores.

What an embarassment.

Nah Japan is just giving AZ away to countries they don't like so much perhaps. They are like Germans, not much sense of humour but sometimes they come out with some crackers 😂

Perhaps Thailand can sell it as extra export AZ?
