Right now Europe is struggeling with a second wave of Covid 19 and USA are registring record high numbers of infection. Only China and North Korea seems to be relatively Covid 19 free, but can we trust these numbers published by the Chinese and North Korean governments?

So you only read the Asian news? Australia and NZ are the world leaders in low Covid infection numbers and that is honest and reliable info. Believing that China or N. Korea are low is extremely naive 

The Republican recruiters are already in serious talks with the highly favoured candidate for their new leader after Trump gets the flick.

Yes they all agree that Ronald McDonald has more flair and superior political skills .

My guess is that there are many asymptomatic carriers within the Thai community and the authorities would probably have that awareness, that's fine if the carriers are being told (quietly) to quarantine, but ultimately very dangerous if they dont. It bugs me big time that these media outlets only report farang that have Covid, it's extreme Xenophobia and just makes the Thai population think poorly of farang and be suspicious that they are all Covid carriers. The Government and their media cronies should get smart and be aware that without farang money Thailand will suffer economic gloom for many many years to come. Unless of course this Government has already sold it's soul to the Chinese and believes they no longer need Western retirees and tourists, only time and actions will tell.

This article is nonsense, show me where Australia add hundreds new cases per day.

Only in Victoria the have a few dozens per day in Western Australia we had not a 

local transmission for months Norther Territory had none for months only a few 

in NSW nothing in SA or Tassie who writes this nonsense?

Look again mate, Melbourne had only 5 new cases today and 0 in regional Victoria.

You are right however, this bloke is meant to be a leading Medical expert and he should know better what the true numbers are rather than trying to make Australians look unsafe. Just more Xenophobia sadly

Wild fires?  more like wild crop farmers constantly breaking the law and nothing being done to stop it.

Genuine leadership and governance is required URGENTLY

Alcohol, drugs, fatigue, vanity, diverted attention and good ol' stupidity are the main culprits of such occurrences... 

You left out the main 2 culprits, lack of driver education, lack of care by government

I think the Chinese would like an American military base on their doorstep. A lot. I'm guessing this is all connected to the events ramping up around Taiwan, the South China Sea and the Indian/Chinese border. It looks increasingly like China is going to get a kicking either later this year or early next. Nothing brings in the votes or turns around a recession like a nice bit of war.

Say what??? You would HAVE to be a Trump supporter making a stupid statement like that. Those of us that are even semi intelligent realise that a war between the US and China would ultimately lead to "lights out Earth"

The logical answer is that they got in too late, far better to jump off now and save funds as others are on the brink of production after serious and positive testing results.

Enough of all this negative crud people, this bug is soon to be gone from our lives, but I pity those who wont get vaccinated, no travel for a while for them 

Is it just me or does the Police Chief look more like a heartless, cold blooded crim'

Just sayin'

Sorry for the deleted word - did not think it was that bad.  As a car driver here...in the Sukhumvit area, I witness, almost daily, drivers of certain cars getting away with a myriad of offences - often in plain view of the boys in brown.  

I think it's called Envelope Brown 

Is there no charge in Thailand for Culpable Driving? they recommend he be charged for drugs and speeding what about recklessly causing death?

Negative test Thai style.....

cheap Chinese digital thermometer held close to forehead shows temp under 37, .... next!!

Bet London to a brick they're Chinese made

Hmmmm!!!  I love the smell of Yuan in the morning

It totally amazes me that for all the usual cynicism many of you TVF mob put out on a daily basis, some of you are actually believing that Thailand has no Covid?

No tests, no Covid. But strangely record amounts of death from Influenza, Stroke, Pneumonia 

Talk about the Ostrich burying it's head in the sand.

Stay safe, stay home

Totally disagree with you.

 

Foreign tourism is necessary to boost the economy. What's tthe point if most of the money is going elsewhere?

Madmitch is a perfect name for you, China and Thailand are awash with Covid, do you really believe that either of these Governments are open and honest?

Who says they are fly thrus?

If you multiply the Thai Covid stats by 100 you'd still be way off the truth IMO, logic says if you consider how many infected Chinese were crawling thru Thailand for at least a month after WHO declared an epidemic then add the Thai "you think too much" attitude .....seriously

wakey wakey dreamers!!!

In Melbourne they are conducting around 25,000 tests every day on a population of 5 million, today they found 415 that are positive due to an isolated outbreak mainly in the Northern and Western suburbs

Thailand manages to test 1500 for a population of nearly 70 million, what's the chances ???

But note, strictly for business purposes with written proof of business from the Taiwanese company, so no destination for holiday makers

Not sure of the others but currently Australia wont let Australians other than Diplomats and Medical experts travel anywhere outside of Oz, but there is talk of a bubble between Oz and NZ that will be for holiday makers.

Qantas just grounded all flights until October so I'm guessing someone high up has whispered in their ear
