Popular Post webfact Posted January 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2020 Thai PM falls sick, but it’s not coronavirus Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has cancelled all this appointments and activities today (Thursday) because of sickness. He has been advised by his doctor to rest at the official guest house in the compound of the First Infantry Regiment of the Royal Guards. Informed sources say that he has been ill for the past 4-5 days and has been on medication prescribed by his doctor, but his condition has worsened today, with high fever and fatigue. The sources also said that the Prime Minister lacked sufficient rest, because he has to handle several official activities each day, especially overseeing measures to prevent the spread of novel coronavirus in the country, including an inspection trip to Suvarnabhumi international airport on Wednesday. The Prime Minister’s condition is not related to that inspection trip, said the sources, adding that, if his condition improves, he may be back to work tomorrow. For now, he is under medical observation.

Popular Post rabas Posted January 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2020 (edited) Thai PM falls sick, but it’s not coronavirus How, if it takes so many days to test suspected cases, does he get tested so fast? In other words, they can test quickly, right? Edited January 30, 2020 by rabas 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RJRS1301 Posted January 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2020 (edited) Surely there are quaified medical personel who are well versed in infection control, who understand the science, and are better able to take control of this health matter, rather than former army person? I was under the impression that good leaders delegate to best qualified person and receive updates and briefings.

You misunderstand the nature of politics. Everything is political, and politicians need to be seen to be in control. Experts are merely bit players 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a less complicated one for you ???? Virus | Definition of Virus by Merriam-Webster https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/virus Virus definition is - any of a large group of submicroscopic infectious agents that are usually regarded as nonliving extremely complex molecules, that typically contain a protein coat surrounding an RNA or DNA core of genetic material but no semipermeable membrane, that are capable of growth and multiplication only in living cells, and that cause various important diseases in humans, animals 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And fit guys like himself don't get sick This is Thailand, the people in authority didn't get there on their merits, they got there on the back of the people they knew, the family they were born into, and the amount of cash that they have. Actually, that sounds a lot like the UK. Edited January 30, 2020 by SteveK 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuyJohninBKK Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 If it actually IS, you can pretty much bet the government would never acknowledge it publicly... Not with Mr. 100% Under Control in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beggar Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 If I look at the masks they all use on the photo all I can do is to hope the best for him. All of these masks provide only limited protection against the virus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
