Because they cheap?... eh.. but useless If you mean Sinovac, that's actually expensive! Good to see that they are at least focusing on the better vaccines for next year. Of course they should first have properly trialled different brand boosters and the way in which they are administered. And it would be good if they kept in mind that new vaccines will become available too between now and some time next year. But this is at least a step in the right direction until they U-turn and buy the Chinese mRNA... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolyCowCm Posted September 28, 2021 #70281 Share Posted September 28, 2021 There they go again with the AZ. I hope Pfizer is opened up to all who want pay for it and jab it, not just them picking and choosing. And what the heck happened to Moderna??? and what happened to J&J???? Even though these are the good guys in the clip, hopefully it will be their same eventual outcome as seen for always staying on their negligent little plan.

JackIsAGoodBoy Posted September 28, 2021 #70292 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Why in the hell they are vaccinating kids?! Especially since it does little to prevent any further spreading. In Sweden 9 kids under 10 have died out of 14767 as of Sep 21, according to Statista.com. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted September 28, 2021 #70460 Share Posted September 28, 2021 I do agree with the "In talks" sentiment. We're into month 19 of this pandemic. Now the government is talking about 2022?? This is "shutting the gate after the horse has bolted". Maybe Thailand should approach Australia to take our AZ surplus! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alavan Posted September 28, 2021 #70475 Share Posted September 28, 2021 "However, Taweesin says there are additional expenses involved in the procurement of vaccines beyond the price of each dose. These include packaging and storage costs, freight, customs duties, taxes, and insurance charges." Wouldn't you think expenses like custom duties and taxes on the Thai side could be skipped?
