Ok thanks
So I presume not approved in Europe?
The first batches were sent to Europe, GB and USA where there was good coverage in the Bangkok post. I would think that the subsequent batches for millions of doses a time continue to be checked (by who? - I hope GB
I agree but, despite the fact that it is approved by WHO, AZ vaccine produced out of Europe is not approved in European countries and they won't allow you in without quarantinecaller wrote: ↑Sat Jul 17, 2021 3:35 pm They are producing the vaccine under license and was at least inially overseen by the parent company. Considering the deal is that they are the main producer of the AZ vaccine for the region, hence the export quotas, I think its safe to assume that it is at the same standard as produced in Europe. Just as other meds produced here under license are widely used.
This is correct. In fact even some people who were vaccinated with AZ in the UK cannot travel to some EU countries because the particular batches their AstraZeneca vaccine came from, were manufactured in India.

But the EU drug regulator's approval does not cover AstraZeneca doses made by South Korea's SK Bioscience or Thailand's Siam Bioscience.
China!! FFS.The EMA has only approved AZ vaccine manufacturing sites in the EU, the United Kingdom, United States and China.

I don't think anyone was expressing doubt about the standard of the AstraZeneca vaccine being produced here, just pointing out that it's not accepted in some EU countries using the digital certificate system.PET wrote: ↑Sat Jul 17, 2021 5:47 pm This was the BPost article - pretty clear for doubters
