The Thai government is ordering 20 million doses of the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine, along with 5 million of the Johnson & Johnson single-dose vaccine. Public Health Ministry has instructed Thai hospitals to honour vaccination appointments, even though they may not have received the number of doses expected. Police have arrested a group of Burmese migrants and an alleged guide from Myanmar in Songkhla’s Hat Yai district. PM Prayut Chan-o-cha’s younger brother is in hot water with the National Anti-Corruption Commission. A drive-through Covid-19 vaccination service has opened up in Phuket.
