Sinopharm deal turns the screws on govtThe side-effects of the Sinopharm vaccine on the Prayut Chan-o-cha government could be deadly. The most that the alternative vaccine would do is to push it closer to being a "zombie" government, dead but still walking. How can the PM and his government justify their continued stay in power with so many casualties under their watch? The arrival of the CRA and its alternative Sinopharm jab on a battle ground dominated by state officials should make people wonder what the point of the government is when it can't seem to fulfil its functions. Why did the government insist on buying only Sinovac when Sinopharm, which is endorsed by WHO, is apparently available?
