I'm surprised on how he wears his mask on several pictures taken this week. Barely covering his nostrils? 

On the news this morning there was a cop wearing a mask it was doing a good job of protecting his chin

Funny how no one is ever fired for not performing the duties of their office. The only punishment is being transferred to a post where the profits of corruption are less lucrative.

Now now this corrupt govt says there is no corruption ????

What difference will insurance make if the hospitals are full, the ICU overwhelmed, medicine in short supply, and doctors and nurses becoming infected and unable to work?

Those with money or insurance go to the front of the line all others wait ????

my understanding is that medical insurance now excludes COVID-19

Yes sure they did, they tested it on 340 patients who recovered in 4 days instead of 11 days.
Why didn't they use it on more though like 20,000? What is the cost?

Those 340 were upper party members 

It's good for foot and mouth disease this govt needs to take a couple of hundreds of those pills a day 

Going to pack people into temples to pray to the big budda in the sky but close bars I guess Covid19 can't survive in a temple

I agree - the village folk seem to think farang are spreaders because we wear masks.

I was getting some strange looks from a little 2 year old boy at my local eatery this afternoon but the lady that runs the place and other people didn't treat me any different than normal

Are these only from the circa 400 apparently tested daily only in Bangkok........ what about the rest of the country apart from Bangkok hospitals 25k package nationwide, are their official results for testing in all areas..

 

What about Phuket? or does Prayut need permission from the real head money man before figures can be disclosed or bars closed or jet ski scam suspended for a couple of weeks.

Watching a news program this afternoon they were talking about the Covid19 I don't understand thai but they mentioned several different places other than Bangkok

Well, look at it from their POV. They have no clues. It's like a drowning man clutching at straws. and assuming (probably rightly), that the proletariat are just too dim to know any different. One of the advantages of keeping them poor and uneducated; they'll believe pretty much anything.

 

Just wait for the folk magic to start: A dead person riding in on a celestial white chariot to slay the Covid-19 dragon and save the Nation..

 

Wait and see.

 

 

Well I did see on TV a temple full of people shoulder to shoulder holding strings while the monks chanted so I guess they hope Buddha will come down and slay the bad virus good luck with that

OK if you can speak or understand Thai language but most of us will have to rely on our wives translation or this forum .  Maybe there should be an English text on the TV screen at the same time ?  

Or am I asking too much ?

I asked the same thing when he made his Friday night speeches before the election they had English text maybe rooster or one of the other members proficient in thai could start a thread with the speech in English

New Jersey in America just locked down the state and called out the national guard.

 

My wife told me the doctor who has been treating her for a nail wound told her that COVID-19 is all over Thailand and they plan on locking down Thailand no one is going to be allowed to go out of their houses, they will be brought food when needed.

 

This is just 1 step while still letting people move around a little, until it becomes like Italy or China.

 

It's like the Quarantine in New York now in one area, its expanding now to New Jersey, New York will expand to the entire State, then the entire country before you know it, like Italy and China.

The county I used to live in in Georgia just reported a case in a town not far from where I lived

I doubt it, the only way to find out if it spreads as much in hot weather is to see how it pans out over the next few weeks and then compare it with the colder countries.

 

 

Isn't it hot and humid in Australia now and what about some of the African and sub saharan countries that have it 

Next come the tanks
