Stop health staff threatsPublic Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul threatening state hospitals with disciplinary action for announcing vaccination delays will do more harm than good to this crucial mission. As public health minister, Mr Anutin's duty is to support them in every possible way. It is no time for the Public Health Ministry, which stands at the vanguard of the battle against the pandemic, to act vengefully against its own personnel. Mr Anutin on Monday said the public health permanent secretary had set up a panel to probe why some state hospitals announced vaccination delays. Many officials including Mr Anutin himself also admitted that the main jab AstraZeneca will be delivered gradually with no fixed amount or timing.
