By stating that “Covid-19 epidemic in Thailand is in a slow downtrend, Yong Phu Worawan, 6 December 2021

as previously said It would be impossible for this disease to go away even if there were patients, but if the symptoms were not severe, or not dead There are thousands of patients But there were no deaths or deaths as the primary units, it must be accepted. Every year, in Thailand, there are 100-200 deaths from influenza per year, which are those with congenital disease, the elderly, young children, obese people, pregnant women.

Similarly, next to covid 19 if everyone is immune. But will still find this disease seasonally. especially the same season as the flu In Thailand it is the rainy season. From June to September or during the first semester of students and will be found sometime in the winter around January to March Or during the second semester of every year, every child born until the age of 9 is almost nonexistent. who never had the flu And we add vaccination to the at risk group. to reduce the mortality rate

In the future, if everyone is immune to the covid-19 virus, whether caused by infection. or from vaccination for the most part or almost all Such immunity can reduce the severity of the disease. This disease is a seasonal disease. and will have a high incidence during the same period as influenza

so now Everyone has to build their own immunity by choosing between vaccinations. with infection

Vaccination is probably a better way to get infected. which may be a disease The benefits of vaccines go beyond infection. So I want everyone to get the vaccine as scheduled.”
