Secrets barred entry to Thailand’s Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, reportedly for not assembly the country’s Covid-19 vaccination requirements, and Thai media reports that the minister missed a World Health Organisation assembly.
Anutin was the first individual in Thailand to be injected with a Covid-19 vaccine on February 28, kicking off the country’s mass immunisation campaign. He was injected with China’s Sinovac vaccine whereas PM Prayut Chan-o-cha was later inoculated with the AstraZeneca vaccine.
The well being minister later obtained a second dose of Sinovac and a 3rd “booster” dose of AstraZeneca as the Sinovac vaccine was later found to be not as effective as AstraZeneca towards the Delta variant, which is now the dominant strain of the virus in Thailand.
But apparently Anutin’s Steps and AstraZeneca booster didn’t meet Switzerland’s vaccination necessities for entry and he wants a fourth shot. Nation Thailand stories that many international locations do not recognise mix-and-match vaccines that embrace China’s Sinovac and Sinopharm vaccines.
Now the well being minister says Thailand will begin administering fourth doses to people who have to travel abroad to attend enterprise meetings..
