The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Wednesday asked Thonburi Healthcare Group (THG) and its chairman Boon Vanasin to clarify a reported deal with the Defence Ministry to import the Covid-19 vaccine made by Pfizer-BioNTech.
The SEC said Dr Boon told reporters on Tuesday that his group would this week sign a contract with the Defence Ministry, which would import a supply of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.
However, the ministry denied later that day that it had a plan with any company to import the vaccine.
