  1. Alright! Thank you for the advice, we will check with the amphur. The distance is approximately 1000km or 12 hours by car. I guess we will try to find a taxi driver who is willing to drive that distance for a reasonable price. What might a reasonable price be? Around 5000-6000?
  2. Hello! I was wondering if thai nationals are allowed to return to their home province? A friend is breaking up with his thai Gf, she is from Nakhon Phanom. We stay in hua hin, how can his ex girlfriend travel back to Nakhon phanom right now? Is it possible to hire a taxi? Is she allowed to travel back home? She has no way of sustaining herself financially right now so she needs to get back home. Q.
  3. That is not entirely true. A country COULD technically be prepared for a pandemic. Obama mentioned 2014 that the US should be preparing in case of a pandemic. Why wouldn't it be possible to prepare for a pandemic? After the swine flu and ebola outbreak the former president tried to put in place an infrastructure to be able to identify and isolate any possible disease. Trump administration undermined his efforts and handled the pandemic very poorly. And the fact that hospitals and field hospitals are overcrowded is mainly due to the fact that people who were asymptomatic were forced to stay in hospitals and field hospitals. The poor response from the thai government and other governments does not prove that it was "impossible" to prepare for an outbreak. Edit: https://couriernewsroom.com/2020/04/14/obama-prepared-for-a-potential-pandemic-trump-gutted-his-work/ here you can listen to Obamas speech from 2014. Saying "nobody was expecting it" and "nobody COULD have prepared for that" is not correct.
  4. There's probably many people who have avoided testing because they would be required to quarantine at a hospital if positive. So I doubt the number of cases has been accurate anyways. Flooding hospital beds with asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic infections would not be worth it even if it provided an accurate number of infections.
