With regular disinfection and cleaning, the facility is guaranteed to provide zero virus transmission.

I never understand why people/organisations set themselves up for a potential fall in this way.

What is wrong with "to reduce/to minimise the likelihood/risk of virus transmission etc"

There are no guarantees in the current situation.

He added that it would take up to one year before the antiviral drug production starts.

 

“It is not considered too slow because the Covid-19 situation would prolong,”

A year to produce!

And the situation will prolong till then!

Though the closure has been extended, AWC said it will continue paying its staff’s wages as per usual.

At least this is some good news, hope they continue to do so.

If they formed 3 committees the problem should be resolved much quicker.

Or, as is the norm, 3 times slower.

So you only read the headlines then spout out what suits your agenda. Try reading the arrival and use common sense.

 

Khon Kaen’s Nam Phong Hospital has had to quarantine 86 medical personnel after a 63-year-old Covid-19 patient visited the hospital on Tuesday (April 14).

Whatever, but I don't think friends and relatives are classed as medical personnel.

It didn’t state 86 medics, it’s said 86 medical personnel which could mean anyone working within the hospital. No doubt the reporting could be poor and the 86 persons might well include friends and neighbours.  Incase you didn’t know, viruses spread exponentially.

Apparently 'white skin' is a very big risk.

Well after 14 days self isolation indoors looks like I am in deep ****, either that or in high risk. Not sure which is worse.

All sounds good, are the checkpoints still in place or removed over songran?

Checkpoints are all still in place, they are located just off the highways on roads that lead to villages. Temp check, hand sanitisers and questions regarding your travel.

On the subject of Sonhkran, there have been very few returness to the area and no sign of water play.

Recovered patients, there is no cure.

But, but, but it was a Major General who was in charge before and we all know how well that went!
