You’ll have to contact the BBC and question their facts.... its all ‘fake news’ right ?

You don't understand.

Where has the digit 4.9% has come from? Whether it be to BBC or to whatever official orgranization.

The only entity that gives the world the rate of growth of China or value of its GDP is China itself.

they opened up for tourists and are still paying a heavy price for it, the Canaries will be next of course..

There're plenty of nations that haven't opened and the infections are still rising.

Therefore, be a country open or not - no difference.

It [China] has one of the few economies which has improved achieving 4.9% growth in the second quarter.

According to whom? Who has given you and the world the figure 4.9%? Right, China itself.

By the way, how's Melania doing?

No idea. I don't know who that is.

You better search for "105 year old recovered" or "100 year recovered" in the internet.

As to 'no problem' - you've no idea whether he's got any lingering issues. His words, or his staff's words on this is less than solid, even if elections weren't around the corner.

 

 

And you - do you have an idea about that? You're saying that as you were 100% sure that they've been some problems.

I don't. You don't either. Then, what is it you're arguing about?

You have no idea about the long term damage to his organs particularly his lungs. I've already posted numerous times that he will most likely survive the acute phase. Cheers.

Re-read what you claimend previously - "not 99% of his age and with obesity"

And do you have an idea about "the long term damage to his organs particularly his lungs." ?

On 10/2/2020 at 7:07 AM, Jingthing said:

Not 99 percent of obese people his age. 

He has recovered, with no problem.

What will you say now?

Just now, Eric Loh said:

Some of those who recovered have brain problems and messed up their organs and those are in the younger age group.  

Yes, some. What's the percentage, though?

Anyone can recover with some problems from any desease whatsoever, even from cold. So what?

Thailand has such a low number because here they wear masks against pollution traditionally. 

Confirmation bias - you've found an example, Thailand, that confirms your theory - "masks = low numbers", whereas you should look for those that disconfirm it.

Indonesians also wear masks. Japanese do. Koreans do. Even chinese do. Where are the low numbers there, the ones that are compariable to the ones of Thailand? Especially in Indonesia.

Thailand has tested only 0.5% of its population, during the whole time, hence the low numbers. In India, for instance, they test the same amount daily.

I want the official fake news only! Only the fake ones approved by the government.

What beginning? Spanish sewage samples from March 2019 had traces of the virus. 

Those Spanish sewage samples that China, barely having found out about which, shouted from each roof "Ahhh, yeeahhh, you see everybody, it's originated from Spain! We've known that! From Spain! Ahhhaaa! Not from China!"

Why didn't people begin to fall sick in Spain or even in Europe then, in March of 2019? How come they did only in China half a year later?

What will you say about the lady from Hong Kong who confirmed that the virus originated in China?

Both Trump's narratives are not facts. Just his cover to defend himself from the failures to protect his own people. He still don't have a plan to protect his own people and that's a fact. 

That doesn't overshadow the fact that China has failed to contain the spread of the virus, from the beginning, and thus has spread it to the whole world.

That's my oxigene around me! Don't breath it!

FILE PHOTO: People wear face masks after Thailand detected its first domestic coronavirus infection in over three months, in Bangkok, Thailand September 4, 2020. REUTERS/Soe Zeya Tun

Oh, Gosh, after 1 death in 100 days that old man on the photo is in panic. Look, he also points a finger to a guy who probably is infected, as if saying "that guy, he'll be the one to blame soon!"

Go figure

- Is Thailand free of chinese covid?

- Of course!

- May I cease to wear a mask then?

- No!

Those who don't wear masks are called by some people irresponsible. Then, what should we call people who are:

a) wear a mask

b) but smoke ciggarets, drink sometimes, eat junk food (think of McDonalds and the like) and food that contains suggar and chemicals.

These people make their immune systems weak, and thus are likely to contract the virust and sicken others. These people should be called irresponsible, as they are those who spread the virus and not those who don't wear masks.

Yet they're busy to come to realize that as they're critising those who don't wear masks.

Before wearing mask and calling someone irresponble, look at the mirror first.

China, for instance, is actually not as safe as it presents itself. It's not in terms of the virus, but in terms of crime. How does it manage to present itself as a safe country? By sensoring what's allowed to be reported on TV, internet, newspapers. Thus, almost no one is aware about the crime, except those who witness it with their owns eyes.

How has Thailand managed to fight off the virus thus becoming viewed as a country that's been successful against the virus? The same thing - don't allow to report, or don't allow to report too much, of what's going on.  That's my opinion.

What would be the advantage to ANY government by hiding figures about this virus?

Can a government alone handle the situation without the cooperation of its citizens?

Is it possible for any government to hide mass deaths, if it is happening?

Can infected patients be hidden in public hospitals?

(Not trying to prove anything, just asking!)

What advantages? I have many:

More trust from the citizens.

Absense of critisism.

Absense of potensial protests.

Absense of fear, from citizens, of going back to work.

Ability to justify, of the government, any measures against the virus. And new ways of spending money of the tax payers.

Plenty of tourists, who are sure that Thailand is safe, flocking back that otherwise may not be willing to return once borders are open

Being viewed as "excellent example of how to fight the virus" from other countries.

"Can infected patients be hidden in public hospitals?" ---> Yes. Don't report them to the world, report only domestically at best -- they get hidden.

Sneezed with a mask on and it helped to spread the virus

funny and too simplictic argument  that doesn't prove anything.

I've seen people who even with a mask on, when they're sneezing, they're taking it out, only to sneeze more easy.

And people who even without a mask, would sneeze in a napkin or cover their nose with shoulder or handkerchief.

Mandatory mask wearing only took effect on July 15 after the increase in infections. 

So what? People in Asia often do, and especially in Hong Kong and since January have been wearing masks voluntarily.

A new wave has come despite that, therefore masks are of little to no help. Placebo.

You are the joke here lol The positivity rate is ZERO and have been ZERO for 2 months. Whether there is 2000 tests a day or 5000. 

You're a joke.

In Vietnam, for instance, there hasn't been no single new local infection for 100 days straight. Until recently when someone, who's stayed the last month in Vietnam only in Da Nang, suddenly has been discovered as sick by the virus. Where did it come from, out of a thin air? No, it means the virus never left the country.

How can Thailand be different? Let alone the fact that Thailand does less tests.

"ZERO"  means a) zero discovered or b) zero officially reported.
