They are being disposed of in public toilets whereupon due to the lack of bog paper the subsequent users utilise them to wipe their arse.

I imagine the moment you might have an intelligent thought your pointy little head will fall off.

By collecting infected droplets right in front of your face.

Mind you, as prescient as I am, I also said in January 2020:

I had my 1st pfizer shot last week, in my area they are already well into the 60-65 group now.

the vacc. clinic was extremely well run with dozens of staff apart from the nurses and docs helping out.
after answering some questions about allergies etc. i was directed to a booth where a nurse administered the shot and then i was asked to wait in a waiting area for 15 minutes to ensure that there was no allergic reaction and doctors were on hand to answer any questions about the vaccine.

apart from a mildly sore arm, i had no side effects.

anybody know when "aliens" in thailand will be getting theirs, and how much it will cost?

That is too long. The Pfizer vac is three weeks and the Moderna is 28 days.

**Stumpy** · 17-02-2021, 06:06 PM

My youngest daughter was 24 days. Oldest 26. Not sure on parents. All had Pfizer except my oldest who had Moderna

...months late, billions short...

Thailand Losing $8.3 Billion as Vaccine Delayed, Lawmaker Says

Thailand Losing $8.3 Billion as Vaccine Delayed, Lawmaker Says

By Randy Thanthong-Knight (Bloomberg)
Wed, February 17, 2021, 3:56 PM

(Bloomberg) -- Thailand’s economic losses from a slow vaccine rollout is seen at about 250 billion baht ($8.3 billion) a month and the delay undermines a faster recovery from the pandemic blow, according to an opposition lawmaker.

The Southeast Asian nation is behind many other countries in the region in starting the inoculation program and Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-Ocha’s government is responsible for the delay, Wiroj Lakkhanaadisorn, a lawmaker from Move Forward party, said on Wednesday.

“Every day the government delays its rollout, the country loses 8.3 billion baht,” Wiroj said while participating in a censure debate against Prayuth’s government in parliament on Wednesday. “The vaccination drive isn’t only just about preventing Covid-19, but also about ensuring faster economic recovery.”

Thailand’s vaccine rollout is unlikely to gain momentum until June as it waits for shots produced by a local drugmaker under a partnership with AstraZeneca Pcl. While the country may start receiving some vaccines from Sinovac Biotech Ltd. from next week, nearly 97% of its orders are for AstraZeneca shots, which won’t be ready for distribution until late May.

Though Thailand is behind countries such as Indonesia, Singapore and India in the vaccination drive, it expects to inoculate 50% of its 70 million population by the end of the year. Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has defended the government’s strategy of not placing orders with multiple vaccine developers, saying Thailand with its low number of infections and status as a middle-income country was not a priority for most suppliers.

‘Not Complacent’

“We’re trying to distribute vaccines as soon as we can,” Anutin said on Wednesday. “I’ve never been complacent. That’s why we have the budget and resources allocated to all necessary agencies,” he told the parliament.

Wiroj said the current vaccine plan will affect the nation’s readiness to fully reopen its borders and slow down a recovery in tourism industry, which made up one-fifth of Thailand’s pre-pandemic economy.

The lawmaker’s warning came on a day when the central bank singled out an uncertain recovery in tourist arrivals as “a major risk” to the medium-term growth outlook. The economy, which shrank the most since 1998 last year, will expand this year “at somewhat a lower rate” than the central bank’s December projection of 3.2%, according to edited minutes of its Monetary Policy Committee.

But Prayuth said Thailand had “done a better job of containing the outbreak than many other countries, and we’re trying to do better.” “We had to close our borders and that hurts the economy, but at least we could contain the outbreak. I don’t want vaccines to become a political issue,” he said.

Thai parliament is scheduled to vote on a no-confidence motion against Prayuth and nine of his cabinet ministers on Saturday and the opposition has criticized the government on various issues ranging from budget allocation to handling of the Covid-19 outbreak.

The news last evening said it was safe to go back to places where crowds gather, such as the gym, two weeks after the second dose. That’s what I have been looking forward to, getting back to the gym and socializing. Still, masks required.

Looking for the call from my local health department in the next couple of days for my second jab.

Truly, it is inconceivable anyone could be more fucking stupid than Anutin.

**harrybarracuda** · 18-02-2021, 01:24 AM

He is some cretinous waffler that bloke. He makes OhOh sound coherent.

**Buckaroo Banzai** · 18-02-2021, 01:32 AM

It just occurred to me that since almost everyone in Florida is over 65, and I am only 63 , I might not het vaccinated for the next two years until I reach that age,

Just back from getting my first jab.

**panama hat** · 18-02-2021, 09:45 AM

Good for you, you must feel a lot better/at ease.

Sore arm?

I am glad for sure, and I have a second appoint all set for next month. Arm feels fine, and I barely felt the jab tbh.

Ya not much to celebrate as everything is still closed, and I will need to continue the same precautions. As for the beer I picked some up on the way home and may crack one open after I make some dinner.

Not strictly true. That's the regimen they used for testing. They don't know if it will diminish the effect much if there is a longer gap.
