Frankly I am surprised he was suggesting 10,000 cases per day by years end. Given the transmissibility of the Delta strain, then as witnessed in India, UK etc I would have thought 10,000 cases per day by end of September would be nearer the mark. However we will never know the true numbers given the extent and organised corrupt reporting mechanisms put in place by this appalling administration.
By the end of July. This is no slow moving virus now. All hope of control has gone

I just hope the Thai people remember those that led this fiasco come the next elections. It has been painful to watch the unfolding of events in Thailand, when so much more could easily have been done.

A very odd list, 2 very common aquarium species which are too small to be edible, not sure wh would be mad enough even in Thailand to farm Tiger fish, Rainbow Trout and Sea trout would not thrive in Thai conditions, and the worlds most dangerous octopus. Who is farming that?

How anyone thought that the delta variant would take 2-3 months to become dominant is deluded. They only had to look at any of the countries where it has been to see how quickly it takes hold. Govt and experts are inept

Happy for Indonesia for joining Covax and enjoying the benefits of that program. Thailand could so easily have joined to but pride and all that stopped them

I must admit, I did think this current surge was due to the delta variant, but according to some newsposts yesterday, that is not true, and the current surge is mainly down to the alpha or British variant with over 75% of cases.
If true, then as the delta variant takes hold it is inevitable that it will have the same effect in Thailand as it has been in Indonesia where it is now the dominant strain
Maybe 10,000+ per day will be the new norm very soon?

So 4 paid tests in total just to go on holiday. No thanks

No tests = no cases.
Not a chance either Mae Hong Son (Burmese border) nor Lamphun (proximity to Chiang Mai) do not have cases.

Pfizer 96% AZ 92% Pfizer is the winner with most likely less side affects then AZ, like blood clots, people dying of heart attacks. Not Recommended for people under 50. Part of the reason AZ has been banned from 18 countries
No AZ hasn't been banned from 18 countries. Try pullling your head out of the sand once in a while

Are Thais particularly easy to con? These stories seem very common

Had dinner with a Thai friend yesterday and she said her nephew got his Pfizer jab for 1500bt in Bangkok a month ago. I told her that was impossible as Pfizer was only just go ahead and was not in the country yet.
My guess is that already unscrupulous con artists are selling jabs of what they claim are either Pfizer or Moderna and Thai's are buying it thinking it's the real thing.
That or genuine vaccines are actually being smuggled into Thailand and sold privately

It will not take 2-3 months it will be much much faster than that

Just wow.
Seems all the ingredients are there for the worst possible outcome to all of this. The beta and delta variants will battle it out for dominance in Thailand leaving a trail of economic and physical destruction in their wake.
It really didn't have to be this way, but even now the bad decisions just keep coming. What happens in the next 10-15 days will be critical in just how bad this is going to get. The exodus from Bangkok might just be the final straw

This will be looked back upon as one of those key events that Thailand screwed up on. Probably quite a big list thinking about it

Not a chance those figures for Chiang Mai are remotely accurate. What is going on up there? is there no testing at all?

It's not a subtext at all. Military have already been providing support in many ways. Setting up and running quarantine facilities, providing transport, supporting vaccine centres, building field hospitals and manning them.
And let's not forget the all important border security.
They are even providing funeral facilities when required.
They're are not 'ready to implemented it', they're already doing it.
I guess I was thinking more along lines of enforcing secure lockdowns etc etc
Edit: I've just seen the posts re: guarding the building camps to ensure no escapees.

All young, fit and disease free......what a waste of vaccines when elderly Thais lives are at risk.
The subtext to all this is, could govt be preparing for something draconian and needs the army to be ready to implement it?

All this will do is increase the infection rate inside the camps to almost 100% if the infection rate reported from Suan Lung is anything to go by, 198 out of 233 tested positive there.
This is totally barbaric.

198 out of 233 workers at the camp tested positive!
Still it's just a cluster, nothing to get too excited about I suppose?

An even better reason to get them opened.
If serious illness from covid starts climbing as it did in India, what can this govt do? It cannot build hospitals, and beds will become critical. If the current policy is because govt does not trust asymptomatic people to self-isolate, why not provide somewhere where they can?
Would hotel owners complain of earning something?
