Tham Luang cave: As water levels recede, rescuers inclined to evacuate stranded 13 before rains aggravate floods

Yes, but not only that, there was a cave specialist being interviewed on the tv, he said the cave will be alive with bacteria and fungi, which would be a risk to the boys health, it would seem there isn't a suitable option at the moment.
Yes and there was a report today such irritants are already damaging their health. Imagine being a parent of these boys. The impulse to protect and nothing you can do. Maybe some are still on the high from their beyond found though.

    One member of the British team has returned to the UK. He is 70 yo and was going back for a medical. The remaining two divers (who I believe are with the kids at the minute) have pledged to remain on

Its crazy - I think most people come here for updates on how its all going (well at least I do anyway) yet all there seems to be are armchair experts from the TVF's offering this or that opinion on what should or should not be doing or how they should do this or that. Its pretty pathetic really. FWIW and my 2c's worth - let the professionals on the ground, both Thai and international do their job and make the best decisions they can considering the situation..

Good luck everyone. 

I think the weak ones should go first and all on the same day. If some were to perish, that would destroy the morale of the ones left in the cave. I don't see why extending the evacuation over many days would be necessary. I don't think the process should start until there's confidence that the weakest can make it.
