CCSA assistant spokeswoman Apisamai Srirangson on Wednesday said the vaccine plan set a target to vaccinate 70% of Bangkok's population, but as of now vaccines have been given to only 43.6% since Feb 28. The Disease Control Department said it plans to procure 500,000 doses by next week and get a further 500,000 the following week to vaccinate Bangkok's remaining residents, Dr Apisamai said.
