Siam Bioscience breaks silence on Thai vaccine deal after Thanathorn criticism

BANGKOK (The Nation/ANN): Siam Bioscience on Monday (Jan 25) released a statement following criticism by Progressive Movement leader Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit over its role in Thailand’s Covid-19 vaccine programme.

Last Monday Thanathorn slammed the government for slowness in providing vaccines, and questioned the transparency of giving a company owned by the Crown Property Bureau – Siam Bioscience – the right to manufacture the AstraZeneca vaccine locally.
