MYAWADY------Myanmar migrant workers from Mae Sot, Thailand, were receiving Covid-19 jabs yesterday as a second day, according to the sources.

“Some workers are afraid to get the vaccine. So, there have been unvaccinated workers. Although some workers wanted to get the vaccine, they have no chance. That’s why, I would like to urge the workers who have a chance of getting Covid jab to inject the Covid vaccine,” said an entrepreneur from Thailand.

“I think that Myanmar workers should get the chance of receiving Covid jab. Don’t seem carelessly. Migrant workers must be needed to get any Covid vaccines which were recognized by WHO,” said Ko Mann living in Mae Sot.

The Covid-19 vaccination program for Myanmar migrant workers in Mae Sot is being organized by Chulabhorn Royal Academy Foundation and  Tak Province Chambers of Commerce and Industry.

Totaling 5,000 Covid doses are being injected to Myanmar migrant workers who worked at the factories and shops in Mae Sot and around 1,180 Myanmar migrant workers in Mae Sot, Tak province, Thailand had caught  Covid-19 virus.
