Per the official numbers, yes. I would look at hospital admissions to get a better picture of the level of infections in Thailand.

That’s a bit misleading. Grouping European countries together mixes countries where Omicron has already peaked with countries where Omicron infections are just starting, and where the numbers are spiking. My contention is that Omicron has passed its peak already in many countries. I don’t think you can argue with that.

Remind me why people have to resort to extreme measures because you don’t want to follow the rules….

I use Worldometer, but even with 1.35 million cases, the growth is not exponential. On Monday, in the US, the case numbers are higher, due to some states not reporting during weekends. You would probably agree that Omicron numbers have stabilized in Europe.

Something is stopping the exponential growth of Omicron in Europe and America. Let's hope that something is also available in Thailand.

Asking for a friend. My friend lives alone in a condo, but often has bargirls come over at night. Sometimes they bring a friend, sometimes the friend is not a bargirl. There is heavy drinking involved. i understand that for a bargirl to go with a Farang is no big deal, but I am surprised at the number of non-bargirls who want to go with my friend. More surprisingly, they are often delivered by their Thai husbands. Note that I am talking about ladies working in the factory, ie they are not penniless. A couple of weeks ago, my friend took a married Thai lady to Bangkok for the weekend. Her only concession to modesty was not posting photos on Facebook. This week, he rented a pool villa and the married lady was delivered to the pool villa by her husband, along with a married neighbor lady. so, are Thai men really that mercenary? Or is this some ploy to justify leaving the wife at some point in the future? Yes, I realize that my friend is not dealing with HISO ladies, and, yes, this is Pattaya.
