“The Justice Ministry is not neglecting the safety of civil servants and its employees,” Thanakrit said. “We are strictly following the Public Health Ministry’s measures and will not be careless.”

“The roads are still jammed and car parks are still full, which shows people are still leaving their homes as usual,” Thanarak said. “This means that both government organisations and private companies are not complying with the work-from-home measure, which is a very unsatisfactory state of affairs.”

Thainess...

“However, this rate remains unsatisfactory until we bring it down to 1 or below.”

Zero is the truth... one person can kick it all off again, just like it began in the first place.

GPO chairman Sophon Mekthon said medical equipment and supplies had to be imported from overseas because production in Thailand cannot meet demand.

But we're in control and can meet all demand???

Because no-one knows how long this is going to go on (for quite a while by the looks) consider an ED visa if you are applicable. 1900 each month and the hassle and risk of doing this every 30 days in such heat is torture ????

 

An education visa requires you to study... where are you going to do that with all teaching facilities closed?

Don't think you'll be granted that one any time soon!

Scenario 1: If Thais didn't follow rules and practice social distancing there would be 24-25,000 cases.

The above coupled with inadequate testing numbers I'd put money on #1

Phuket didn't enforce the required 14 days quarantine and let him got out of the premises.... just shows how good the communication is between Thailand governments (provincial/central)

Or how dumb the Phuket minister was trying to keep tourism afloat and ignoring all the information about what was going to happen.

As a precaution, even though they are at low risk of contracting the virus, all staff at the hotel have been placed in 14 day quarantine. Ban Muang did not say what hotel it was.

Its the one that's now closed because of no staff.

Yea, casinos are dangerous. By the way, Thailand should build cashinos to increase the GDP, but Thais are not permitted in the cashinos due to Buddhism.

Can you imagine the corruption if Thailand had casinos?

The tooth was extracted and when the patient was being told to bite on the gauze the truth came out that actually he had gone to Lumpinee Stadium on the 6th and then driven his taxi around for the next 2-3 days.

It's a shame they still don't use gas for extractions, like they did back when I was a kid, I'd of opened the tap a bit more!

Thailand confirms 120 new coronavirus cases, 2 more deaths

We keep hearing stories of people asking for a test, only to be turned away from hospitals.

I think the numbers are only showing the total test capability of a few hospitals.

Patient numbers are actually much higher.
