First procurement of the second generation of Covid-19 vaccines should begin next month. The National Vaccine Institute (NVI) will study the idea in October, according to the Deputy Director-General of the CDC. Which brands and how many vaccines are needed are controversial. Pfizer’s new vaccine targets the pandemic strains BA.4 and BA.5. That doesn’t mean Thailand will depend on it most. The NVI will research every presently available and soon-to-be-available vaccine before choosing one for Thailand. The deputy director-general believes all future vaccine purchases will be second-generation items as manufacturers phase out first-generation vaccines and replace them with more advanced ones. Chulalongkorn University created the ChulaCov19 vaccination. Government Pharmacy Organisation is creating HXP-GPOVac with 434.5 million baht. 250 18-75-year-olds are currently in phase two trials. HXP-GPOVac is safe and effective. The NVI director expects all three in-house vaccines to be available by 2023. Thai-developed and -produced immunizations will be provided…
Following the Ministry of Interior’s suggestion to enable small hotels to operate more readily as homestays, a coalition of hotel organisations is urging a relaxation of building laws that have rendered 20,000 small hotels illegal. Ten hotel and tourism organizations asked the prime minister to modify some regulations for smaller hotels that can’t afford to rebuild. As Thailand’s tourism economy recovers, some provincial governments have closed unregistered hotels. But not all were shady. Many people were trapped since the structures they were staying in couldn’t pass hotel licensing tests. Business and government have been negotiating this issue since December, but the prime minister’s office has not yet responded. The group wants these rules halted while they’re addressed. Small hotels are just starting to benefit from the post-pandemic tourism resurgence, they say. According to the president of the Khao San Road Business Association, small hotels can’t comply with building standards and…
Anucha Burapachaisi, a spokesperson for the Prime Minister’s Office, stated yesterday during a news conference in Thailand that 203 new water pumps would be purchased with the 664 million baht budget. The Thai Meteorological Department predicts that until Friday, September 9, flooding and heavy rain will affect the entire nation. More than 10 Thai provinces, including Rayong, Ayutthaya, and Pathum Thani, were under water yesterday. The task of managing the budget and locating efficient water pumps to replace the outdated ones that aren’t worth fixing has been delegated to the Royal Irrigation Department. The budget for the fiscal year 2022 was left at roughly ten billion baht, and the most of it was set aside for water management, according to the PM’s Office. When the projects are finished, more than 1,400 acres of land and 542 households in Thailand will benefit. Interior Ministry and Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.…
The administration just reiterated its steadfast opposition to electronic cigarettes last week. Ekniti announced that the department will increase taxes on all types of alcohol starting in the fiscal year 2023 in order to combat drunkenness among Thailand’s youth. Unless Thailand soon makes vaping legal. He said that the price rise was necessary because young Thais were increasingly binge drinking in order to reduce alcohol consumption and improve overall public health. KhaoSod claims that Ekniti also announced an increase in the fee on e-cigarettes. E-cigarettes are not allowed in Thailand, thus it is unclear how the tax would be applied to “vapes” or if it has already been implemented. Given his declaration that the agency will start charging for beer with 0% alcohol, Ekniti’s concern for the general public’s health is, at best, questionable. The majority of e-cigarette users—more than half—are young people, according to Anutin Charnvirakul, a pro-marijuana health…
