Thai private sector ‘can import Covid-19 vaccines'


Traisuree Taisaranakul

BANGKOK (The Nation/ANN): The government is not monopolising the purchase of Covid-19 vaccines and is not blocking the private sector from importing them, government deputy spokesperson Traisuree Taisaranakul said on Thursday (April 8).

In a bid to clarify “inaccurate” information that is confusing the public, she said the demand for vaccines is far higher than the production capacity.
