    The Minister of Tourism and Sports is preparing to propose the opening hours extension of entertainment venues from 2:00 AM. to 4:00 AM. to be in line with tourist behavior.


    Minister Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn revealed on Thursday, August 11th, that the proposal will be introduced in the meeting of the Center for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) for their approval next week.

     

    Phiphat added: “The extension is in line with the foreign tourists’ behavior, such as European and Middle Eastern nationals who regularly started dinner around 10:00 PM. and started drinking at midnight.

    Some good news, 2am is a little early for closing. Used to be 4am previously so no chance to the law

    Where?

    Global fatality rate is 7.7%

     

    Per country the death rate varies from 0.25 to c. 12%.

     

    Source: https://www.biospectrumasia.com/news/83/15738/covid-19-the-current-case-fatality-rate-globally-.html

     

    Also different countries log data / deaths differently, some will register someone who died of a heart attack but had COVID they log it as a COVID death which is highly debatable if the heart condition was pre existing. So the global death rates are at least in part including deaths of people with pre existing medial conditions. Italy, having the second highest deaths in Europe has stated >99% of deaths were people with pre existing medical complaints.

     

    So the number that everyone wants to know, the death rate for normal fit / healthy people of working age is rather impossible to know. However we can deduce that it is lower than 7.7%, globally. Likely significantly lower.
