Bus station Mor Chit was packed today.
The weekend saw a mass exodus from Bangkok to home towns, some will be infected and act as carriers on the way home in the transport and when they arrive...
Most say Bkk is closed with nothing to do, they refuse to sit at their accommodation so are heading to family far away in the hope of some normality.
Expect the numbers to surge more in a week or two!

Odd that they would close golf courses. You can’t get much further away from people than that.
Except in the 19th hole, where they spend most of the time.

Don't think so ...No, but the government could cut back the multi billion baht defense budget, instead of buying useless hardware and submarines, paying hundreds if not thousands of commanders/generals, cut the conscripted soldiers level in half and god know what else, they could offer free testing everywhere, free medical treatment and help the unemployed.

if the majority are in BKK that would be a smart move to keep them there and don't allow them to travel and spread it out, thus first and foremost, lock down/shut down/block down, halt any and all traffic out of BKK
Too late, someone I know working in Bangkok headed back to Roi-Et today... she said the bus station was packed with people going home around the country. Most quoted, "stay in Bkk for what, everything's closed and nothing to do".

Guitar Mag Awards 2020 was organised on March 9. Amongst artists, musicians, and celebrities who attended the event was Nichaphat Chatchaipholrat, an actress who revealed on Friday that she was infected with Covid-19.
Obviously they thought they were above the virus?

Huge amount of daily jumps now. Similar to how it started in Europe a few weeks ago. Got a feeling they need to impose a proper lockdown (this government have done it before) to avoid Thailand becoming like Italy or Spain very soon.
A lockdown is one thing... fully explaining what "self-isolation" actually means is another.
Expect the numbers to rocket as carriers still continue to go out or mingle with family members at home!

Many come from the north where they may have generations sharing. They don’t have the option of going it alone
So wait for the numbers to rise dramatically... I didn't say what they could do, I quoted what "self isolation means" which we know is un-achievable.
The trojan horse came in, and now because of the Thai culture at home it will spread like wild-fire.

What makes you predict they will likely do as you suggest they will?
I didn't predict anything...
I merely quoted what "self isolation" really entails... and as we know that's almost impossible for Thais to do!
So wait for the numbers to keep rising.

44 minutes ago, tropo said:These young people should self isolate for 14 days when they reach their homes. Of course they won't
Unfortunately "self isolation" is not fully understood by many.
Self=alone
isolation= away from others.
They will go home and share everything with the family, sitting areas, meal times, bathroom facilities, even sleeping areas.
The parents and siblings will then continue to live as normal, going outside, shopping, working socialising.. spreading the virus further.

Additionally, the heroic medical and healthcare staff who are at the front lines to contain the Covid-19 pandemic should be shielded from exposure to infectious healthcare waste through proper medical waste systems
411 cases nationwide?
I could understand the concern if it were a few thousand.

Provincial governors of border crossings nationwide have been given special powers to close borders, with only one land border crossing per province permitted to stay open
Makes sense under the circumstances... although hard for some people.
Tough decisions are never easy or welcome.

its not about "beliefs" its about statements of fact by specialists outside of Thailand people who are not towing a line or impeded by the state with a thought based education. Just look at Anutin, he speaks on behalf of the govt................you trust him?
There are two things in Thailand, truth and beliefs, as we all know they are thought of in equal measure by different factions of the country...
It's not hard to wear a mask or any kind of protection when you go out... just make your own statement..
"I'm doing something" is better than doing nothing.
That's what the officials did at the start, and that got us where we are today!
More provinces shutter public outlets to create social distance amid Covid-19 threat

This is an initial shutdown period to monitor the affects... infection numbers will be scrutinised in those areas to see if it is working.
If someone said now... your closed for 2 months there'd be mass hysteria!!
