Only a matter of time before emergency powers are invoked (like Art. 44) and the army are back on the streets.

You mean the same as when they measure the size of their d!cks?

The government need to appropriate these buildings and convert them into field hospitals - beds are already there and people can be kept in isolation in separate rooms.

Does anyone have the web address to register with the British Embassy? I seem to be going round in circles on the FCO site and not finding it.

If any one of them already has the virus then they are all toast. Not very responsible behaviour for such an elite team. How the hell would they replace them?

Why waste time, money and prison space? Just take him out the back and dispose of him.

They should offer to convert the place into a field hospital.

SCB in Phuket was open today but they have stopped foreign exchange so I would assume that maybe all banks have? I was directed to an exchange booth in Boat Lagoon - at 30.02 to the USD I told them to stick it - it's above 33 now on XE and SuperRich web site was quoting 32.87 earlier today. I will try SuperRich tomorrow.

in the next 2 or 3 days the Amphur is going to close for all business except for the registering of births and deaths.
Are they expecting to be busy then?

Merkel, 65, will continue her work from home and will submit to repeated tests over the next few days, her spokesman said in a statement, adding it was too soon for a conclusive test yet.
So why are they testing and confirming COVID-19 much quicker elsewhere? Has she already tested positive and they are looking how to spin it?

I also arrived on Thursday night from Yangon and transited through to Phuket. I had no temperature check, did not complete a TM8 form, did not get asked to upload an App, and did not get asked to self isolate. The only thing they did was to take my fingerprints using a grubby fingerprint scanner with no hand sanitizer available. I had my own and regularly sanitized throughout the journey and also wore a face mask throughout. Seems tat some are taking this more seriously than others.

Arrived late last night from Yangon and transited through Swampy to Phuket. I was not asked for medical certificate (which I got in Myanmar yesterday). I was not asked for proof of health insurance (which I have). I was not told to self isolate (which I am doing) and there was no mention of loading an App on my phone (although people coming through regular immigration seemed to be doing that as I passed on my way to transit).
I scanned my fingerprints but there was no hand sanitiser. I had my own travel bottle so was regularly sanitising throughout the trip.
Typically there seems to be a lot of inconsistency in the way this pandemic is being dealt with.

Still does not explain it.. in Italy hospitals are overwelmed and they have to turn down people. So if its really bad it wills how. It has not. So cases might be higher as reported but not super high otherwise we would have hospitals that are filled to the brim.
Yes, I agree. I am currently in Yangon and at present there are no official cases here. In conversation with our resident Farang medical practitioner, who also experienced the SARS epidemic, he explained that the COVID-19 virus does not survive in the heat. This may go some way to explaining why the pandemic seems more virulent in cooler countries (China, South Korea and now Europe and the US). However, no need for complacency as I believe it's still prudent to santise regularly, avoid crowded areas and just be generally vigilant. If it does not survive hotter climates then I am hopeful that we will get through relatively unscathed as it's gradually getting hotter here until the rains break in May/June. As the summer months approach in Europe and the US it may also help in stalling the virus. Hoping to get back to Thailand for a couple of weeks at Songkran but not looking forward to flying or transiting through the airports.

Yes, and you don't need to drink so much as they all look more beautiful in the dark.
