Thailand Health Ministry says that it will fully use its over 32 million stock of Sinovac vaccine for its vaccination programme

BANGKOK, Oct 18 (Reuters): Thailand will stop using the Covid-19 vaccine of China's Sinovac when its current stock finishes, a senior official said on Monday, having used the shot extensively in combination with Western-developed vaccines.

Thailand used over 31.5 million Sinovac doses since February, starting with two doses to frontline workers, high-risk groups and residents of Phuket, a holiday island that reopened to tourists early in a pilot scheme.
