Vaccines - Covid 19

[hhinner]

Going back to the vaccine record, I've just spotted the first requirement, which many of you probably wouldn't be interested in, but I can see it becoming a greater requirement as time goes on.

On the Thailand Football thread, I've been saying how crazy it is that teams are asking for 25% fan capacity to be permitted at stadiums. I've just read that this will be approved providing supporters can prove 2 vaccinations. If not the vaccine record, what other proof will people be able to show?

Incidentally, I have no intention travelling to watch footie in the near future, but we're going to need something for many things IMHO.

I think many will be able to show their Mor Phrom record on their smartphones. Others will have their paper records received at vaccination time, though these won't take much wear and tear.

Would people be allowed to photograph the vaccine passport and carry it on there phones like they do with passports?

Thai IT systems

They've produced the list for Monday, and surprise, surprise, I'm not on it. I'm going to be well stressed when I turn up on Monday. It will be a lot more than white coat syndrome that sends their blood pressure monitor into orbit.

Actually, looking at Mondays list, when I attended for the first jab, there were loads of Farangs listed. This time, Farangs are few and far between. It seems as though many Farangs have dropped off the list. I will most likely turn up early, because if they only have vaccine for those listed, they are going to be hundreds of doses short.

Not too much reporting on this. An update of the development of Thai made Covid vaccines.

A quick look at Covid-19 and medicines being developed in Thailand

ChulaCov19

Considered as the pioneer behind Southeast Asia’s first mRNA Covid-19 vaccine, the human trials for Thailand’s home-grown ChulaCov19, developed by researchers at Chulalongkorn University launched earlier in June, have been met with very successful results.

“Thailand’s home-grown ChulaCov19 vaccine generates immunity on par with the Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA vaccine and protects against four major variants of Covid-19,” its lead developer said on Tuesday.

Dr Kiat Ruxrungtham, the founder of the Chula Vaccine Research Center (Chula VRC), revealed that the “ChulaCov19 stimulated similar levels of antibody-based immunity as other mRNA vaccines such as Pfizer BioNTech and Moderna, while generating much higher protection against the original strain of Covid-19.”

“This high antibody response is also capable of inhibiting transmission of all four strains: Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Delta. ChulaCov19 also stimulates T-cell immunity, which helps to eliminate and control the virus in the cells of infected people,” Dr Kiat added.

The first Phase of the human trials involved 36 volunteers, aged between 18-55, who were given two shots of the vaccines. They experienced no serious side effects after seven days, with some reportedly developing mild to moderate symptoms which went away after 1-3 days.

Phase 2 trials on volunteers will begin around August 25. If successful, Dr Kiat expects ChulaCov19 to be available by April 2022. Researchers will transfer the technology to Bionet Asia for immediate mass production.

One of the biggest positive factors in producing mRNA vaccines is that they are quicker to produce and can be made in large quantities, according to Dr Kiat, which will ultimately help reduce cost in the long run.

Not only that, the vaccines will be readily available, first and foremost, to Thai people and persons who currently need it most.

Another key distinctive feature about ChulaCov19 is that it can be stored at a normal refrigerator temperature of 2-8°C for three months and room temperature (25°C) for two weeks, unlike its mRNA counterparts, such as the Pfizer and Moderna, which requires a deep-freeze and special kind of storage.

Dr Kiat also spoke with Nature magazine earlier this year about the development of the vaccine, which had received positive pre-clinical results as early as May 2020 but has only just progressed to human trials this year. The vaccine was developed by the center in collaboration with Professor Dr Drew Weissman, a pioneer in mRNA technology from the University of Pennsylvania.

If that's the list starting 5559 it's for the Mor Prachuab Phrom Sinovac 1st jab. You were in the original Mor Phrom queue. You should just turn up with your appointment card.

A big number seems to have passed us by with little or no notice, in that the country on August 19 vaccinated 852,924 people. The highest daily total here so far, and right up there with what many big countries have been achieving.

Another vaccination batch announcement from Hua Hin Hospital:
----

Announcement from COVID-19 vaccination center
We will provide Covid-19 vaccination service on 23 August 2021 from 7 am - 3 pm at the parking building, 7th floor.
(“Mor Prachuap Prom” now 5,559 - 8,085)
Please kindly check if your name is on the vaccination list. And please bring your ID card or passport on the appointment date.
If you have registered through the “Mor Prachuap Prom” application or you are not on the list, please closely follow the news on Hua Hin hospital's Facebook page as we regularly update the vaccination schedule.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

If that statement is correct, which I don't doubt, the wording, "For everyone, Mhor Prom, Mhor Prachuap Prom........" is very confusing. The Mhor Prom list (first vaccine) actually completed last week, or should have. Many Thais are being confused by it as well.

This just proves the inadequacy of the IT support having multiple systems doing the same job, and using the same number identifiers on each list.

The vaccine team at HHH are fantastic, but the IT support is less than adequate.

Very sorry guys, this looks as though it was a scam (I've deleted the original post).

Below is the reply from the British Embassy ...
Thank you for your enquiry of 21/08/2021 15:29 .
We appreciate that you are looking for clarity regarding vaccination programmes.
The British Embassy in Bangkok is not providing vaccines for British Nationals resident in Thailand. British nationals should aim to be vaccinated in the country where they live and the Thai government has confirmed that vaccinations will be provided for everybody who is resident in Thailand, including foreigners.
We are closely monitoring the Thai government’s plans to roll out the vaccine, including registration processes. As information becomes available about the national vaccination programme we will share this on our travel advice pages.
You can also register with the Embassy to receive detailed information about the vaccination programme by sending a message to Bangkok.DocumentaryServices@fcdo.gov.uk
You can also sign up for email alerts for updates to our Travel Advice using the link in the summary section. Information about vaccines is available to read in the coronavirus section.
Information about vaccines used in other national programmes, including regulatory status, should be available from local authorities. British nationals may locate English-speaking doctors in Thailand and, where available, can find information provided by local authorities on the roll-out/availability of a COVID-19 vaccine. We provide this information through our Living in Guides. The World Health Organisation recognises a number of Stringent Regulatory Authorities, which may also be a useful source of additional information.
We hope you find this reply useful.
Regards
David F.
