Interesting that we are getting more frequent honest updates from China than in Thailand 

Might be a good time for the WHO to send Thailands Minister for Health a personal directive telling him to get his head ######## on top of this and follow the correct guidelines 

Farangs who refused masks were 100% correct to do so, being used in the wrong situation could make things worse 

so did they move them to economy - sure to fit there lol

I wouldn't like to cleaning their cage out

A Thai website, being out of date ?? 

 

I simply dont believe it.. 

yes it talks about Wuhan as if Thailand is magically unaffected 

wake up call 

Thailand now has 25 confirmed cases of the coronavirus, and its capital Bangkok is now considered the most at-risk city in the world outside of China for spread of the infection.

“we have done our best”, says Thai health minister

Really? Handed out a bunch of masks that are pitifully inadequate, slagged off those who knew that and refused them, all the while trying to allow more virus carriers to come visit and spread the plague. If this is his best, you would hate to see what happens when they do poorly.

absolutely 100% spot on

They think it is bad now 

If they don't start taking this situation seriously it may take a very long time to recover and restore confidence 

News coming from China is very grave indeed - they ignored and silenced the Doctor (who has since died of the virus) who gave them an very early heads up in December  and a chance to halt this in its tracks, by covering it up and lying to the public we now see the results

First thing Thailand needs to do is be honest with the public - the only way to stop this is with public cooperation - it is not about face masks - it is about shutting down affected areas and containing the outbreak if necessary - China has isolated huge parts of the country and shut down public transport and told people to stay indoors - Hongkong has closed its borders

that is one giant step up and a giant leap for

Thailand

China had similar numbers a week ago and now in the tens of thousands

anybody now starting to pay attention - you should be

what I think happened as someone already suggested earlier in this thread

He was handing out masks and rightly a few farang refused them, I would have refused them also - we don't know where he has been or what he has touched and I certainly would not be shaking his hand either - that is how you spread a virus - touching things that could be contaminated

I know that WHO stands for this. But they are all governed by governments WHO want to use them for their benefit - this is my opinion. 

can anyone spot the health minister posting on this thread - it beggars belief

pretty much the same idiotic nonsense 

you know who will be blamed if there is a massive outbreak in Thailand - he thinks "not him"

maybe he owns the company that manufacturers face masks

That is either a miracle or ….………………… superb management

Finance Minister Uttama Savanayana said on Thursday (February 6) that exporters could park more of their money abroad as the latest measure to curb appreciation of the Thai currency.

I'm going to explain this double talk in plain English

Buy foreign currency quick because the Thai baht is about to go through the floor

and I'm not joking - this is what he is saying

The problems began when China banned all outbound tours in a bid to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, Mr Chairat said.

So does Thailand agree with the measures China is taking to protect other countries or not ?

They start off with Thai men - get knocked up at 16 then abandoned - they have little choice from there
