What does "low risk virus period" mean?

I’ve never heard of it and I’ve been following this whole thing closely, as have the majority of us I would think. A Google search returned the following, which suggests incubation beyond 14 days is negligible, i.e. around 1%. 

 

There were 181 confirmed cases with identifiable exposure and symptom onset windows to estimate the incubation period of COVID-19. The median incubation period was estimated to be 5.1 days (95% CI, 4.5 to 5.8 days), and 97.5% of those who develop symptoms will do so within 11.5 days (CI, 8.2 to 15.6 days) of infection. These estimates imply that, under conservative assumptions, 101 out of every 10 000 cases (99th percentile, 482) will develop symptoms after 14 days of active monitoring or quarantine.

I just put old my furniture outside and it’s gone in seconds; I’m on the 18th floor.

Meanwhile, he cautioned users that spam received via Apple’s iMessage system is not related to ThaiChana

No, it’s just a complete coincidence that I’ve only been getting these messages since the day I first used ThaiSpama.

The car was reportedly going at a high speed when it went out of control and hit the electric post at 10.15am.

It’s not the fault of the car. It should read: 

The driver was reportedly driving too fast for the conditions when he lost control and hit the electric post at 10.15am.

An expert doctor

Then I must be a genius as I’d worked this out years ago. 

If you watch closely during his briefings you can see the strings.

Yes, but they should cover all costs of the quarantine including a test at the end of the 14 days.

Why? Thais don’t pay for it. If you’re working here and paying tax, then I see no reason to make non-Thais pay.

For democracy to work properly, it needs an educated and informed electorate.

Uneducated people are easily manipulated by populist politicians.

Whether Thailand is ready for a democracy that functions as intended, I'll leave up to you.

Agreed. One only needs to look at the education system here to see this in action.

Nailed it in one mate, so why risk the chance of  increased spreading by allowing foreigners to enter ?

So why risk the chance of increased spreading by allowing anyone to enter? Just saying.

Yes, being a member of the human race helps. 

And so the poor get poorer.

The tourist police came and contacted the British embassy but they had no record of the man and proved unhelpful.

No surprise. It has ceased being an embassy and has become a trade mission.

Thai Chana does not violate personal data

.....says the government that created it. 

Then how did they get their "Fit to Fly" certificates?
