Thailand Covid At Record High!

[Dodger]

Thailand's limited production of the AstraZenica vaccine continues to plague Thailand with drastic shoratges of vaccine.

The Bloomberg article below explains the challanges involved in the global suppy-chain, and states that the shortage in Thailand is due to the Thai Company Siambioscience for not being able to ramp up production as planned.

It's becoming very clear (to some) that Thailand bit off more than it could chew regarding its comittments to produce the AstraZenica vaccine, and, as a result, the Kingdom has found itself in a very dangerous position. The root cause of this problem has helped fuel the public demonstrations in Bangkok, which appear to be equally as dangerous.

Thailand should consider themselves lucky.

This site, https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ shows that, since the pandemic started, the UK has a fatality rate of 2.27%, the US 1.77% and Italy 2.96% per infection. Thailand has an fatality rate of 0.8%.

And that whilst they battle the Delta variant, which did not affect the other countries so badly.

Thailand should consider themselves lucky.

Only if the quoted figures are accurate.

Given that we are talking about Thailand and its "leaders", chances are they are not.
