Thailand’s Billionaire-led Opposition Lie about Vaccine Prices

The US-backed billionaire-led opposition in Thailand has continued to attack the Thai government over its COVID-19 response despite Thailand’s response being among the best in the world.

Now the opposition is lying about the costs of AstraZeneca’s vaccines and about the nature of the deal made with the Thai government for vaccines, technology transfers, and the manufacturing of vaccines in Thailand.
