  1. THe long term daily average of 40 deaths per day increases to nearly 70 per day at New Year and at Songkraan.
  2. I visited the hospital in Sakeow last week. There were thousands of people all waiting to see a Doctor. Every one of them masked. Probably all still worried about Covidbollocks.
  3. So with China apparently in the midst of a large "Covid wave" at the moment will Thailand insist on tight controls for the virus-ridden Chinese? Or will they be simply waved through? If so what was the point of the stupidity of the last 3 years?
  4. The official figures suggest that cases are now falling (566 per day) - and deaths are probably peaking (15.3 per day). https://ddc.moph.go.th/covid19-dashboard/?dashboard=main&fbclid=IwAR1ldoavWNzTFzhnuNQYXSVoCRYua4RqAOcfVZwt0LOy3R_o1lzeFad2E9s
  5. I forgot to mention China. Their cases are rising again. Looking at the logarithmic plot (lower graph) their background cases have been rising throughout the panicdemic they have supposedly had under control.
  6. Japan and South Korea are both peaking now - as is Hong Kong. Singapore has peaked. Everywhere else is basically flat or going down. The second graph shows the same data on a per-capita scale. Johns-Hopkins data.
  7. Nope. I wouldn't call this "soaring". The appropriate English word would be "hovering".
  8. Soaring? Hardly. It's al relative. Thailand is at background level. Have a look at this graph before they delete it.
  9. Don't like my graphs? How about OWID/Johns Hopkins? (They are identical to mine - same data and same smoothing.
  10. Here we go again... Lock the country down again. Reimpose the lockdown...
  11. Drop the masks and Thai pass. Open up fully. Open the bars. And then you might get a chance of attracting tourists during a recession - or depression - caused by two years of lunatic Covid lockdowns which Thailand wholeheartedly supported.
  12. Phuket's 7-day average cases are now 8 per day. An average of 0.4 people are dying each day having tested positive for Covid recently. This is insanity. If people want to wear masks for the rest of their lives let them - but let those of us who would rather breathe fresh air go without.
