Pledging to still give out 6 million doses as planned, officials appear to be making up the shortfall with millions of shots from China’sSinovac Biotech Ltd.</p>\n<p>Shipments of shots made by Siam Bioscience -- AstraZeneca’s Bangkok-based partner, which has links to the Thai royal family -- to Malaysia and the Philippines have also been delayed, though both countries say they don’t expect to be waiting for too long.</p>\n<p>The situation comes on top of delivery problems at India’sSerum Institute of India Ltd., another AstraZeneca partner, which has left developing countries from Nepal to Rwanda short of shots that were promised through the World Health Organization-backed Covax program. Siam Bioscience is AstraZeneca’s sole Covid vaccine partner in Southeast Asia, a region that is trailing on inoculation and where the virus continues to flare, including in Thailand where infections have surged over the past two months.</p>\n<p>AstraZeneca declined to comment, while Siam BioScience didn’t respond to requests for comment.</p>\n<p>The Philippines now expects a batch of nearly 1.2 million AstraZeneca shots to be shipped from Thailand in mid-July rather than this month, though a government official saidthe initial delaywill not derail the country’s vaccination push. In Malaysia, authorities say they’re working to resolve the issues around the delivery schedule, which the government stated in May would see 610,000 doses arrive from Thailand in June and another 410,000 in July.</p>\n<p>AstraZeneca itself is also facing legal action from the European Union for a production shortfall, with the company only delivering 30 million doses to the bloc in the first quarter, compared with an original target of 120 million.</p>\n<p>Seeking Alternatives</p>\n<p>The Anglo-Swedish company, which partnered with the University of Oxford on the vaccine, received orders to supply as many as 3 billion doses worldwide before efficacy data came out last year, more than twice as many as any other first wave shot, data compiled by Bloomberg shows.</p>\n<p>While not exclusive to AstraZeneca, the various delays -- particularly out of India, which has banned the export of Covid vaccines -- have left dozens of countries that were counting on the shot desperate to find doses elsewhere, and undermined the company’s bid to supply the developing world.</p>\n<p>Now, countries are turning to alternatives, particularly shots developed by Chinese companies Sinovac and Sinopharm that recently received approval from the WHO. While they’re less effective than the Messenger RNA vaccines made by Pfizer Inc., BioNTech SE and Moderna Inc., these shots are easier to store and transport.</p>\n<p>Thailand, which aims to vaccinate70% of its populationby the end of this year, is also now allowing regional health authorities to extend the interval between Astrazeneca vaccine doses to 16 weeks, from 10 to 12 weeks previously, though officials say the move is to optimize the shot’s effectiveness and not for lack of supply.</p>\n<p>The country has alsoordered20 million doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and isin talksfor 5 million doses of the single-shot Johnson &amp; Johnson vaccine as it continues to expect deliveries of the Astra shots from Siam Bioscience.</p>\n<p>New to Vaccine-making</p>\n<p>AstraZeneca’s vaccine is among the cheapest of the first round of Covid shots because the company said it wouldn’t take a profit, selling it at cost.</p>\n<p>But the lack of economic incentives could have constrained AstraZeneca and its manufacturing partners’ ability to get the supply chain in order, said Carlos Cordon, a professor of strategy and supply chain management at the Institute for Management Development in Lausanne, Switzerland.</p>\n<p>“The supply chain of the Astra vaccine is not an easy one and, logically, one would assume that there will be more than one source of supply to avoid bottlenecks,” Cordon said. “A little bit of an economic incentive would have certainly helped to make companies in the supply chain even eager to make higher production volumes.”</p>\n<p>AstraZeneca’s choice of Thai partner raised questions from the start.

It has also made Covid test kits.</p>\n<p>It’s set up by theCrown Property Bureau, an agency that managed assets for the palace no matter who sat on the throne. The company had been operating at a loss in the four years leadingup tothe year of pandemic, when it brought in anet profitof 35.8 million baht ($1.1 million), according to data published by the Department of Business Development.</p>\n<p>In February, Thai Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-Ocha said Siam Bioscience does not seek to profit from making the Astra vaccines.</p>\n<p>Royal Links</p>\n<p>Complicating matters is Thailand’s lese majeste law, which can see jail time ofup to15 years for defaming the royal family.
