They are not tell us where these infections are occurring and the count is still 19 what must they be hiding

 

Yes the schools.....that’s scary for sure!!

Thailand seems to have a static number of 19 Coronavirus people..... By the spread of it elsewhere, this would seem to be unrealistic. 

They are withholding the diagnoses or simply unable to do them.

The pending diagnosis cases rises every day, at almost the same rate as persons under investigation.

 

EDIT: A-ha, in the latest report they have deleted the part with the number of pending diagnoses completely. In the previous it was 405. Just how blatant can you get?

Traveller from Thailand confirmed as South Korea’s new virus case

 

The latest confirmed case brought South Korea’s total number of patients to 16.

She is a 42-year-old Korean woman who returned to the country from Thailand on January 19, according to Seoul’s health authorities.

She started showing symptoms six days later, and was diagnosed with the virus today, they added.

But the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said it was too early to conclude whether the patient contracted the virus while in Thailand, where 19 cases have been confirmed so far.

“We need detailed research through an epidemiological survey,” Jeong Eun-kyeong, director of KCDC, told reporters.

Same for other 19 confirmed cases.

There are now over 20,000 cases in China - Thailand still 19

 

That doesn't sit right with me

Could be that they are holding back, hoping that the numbers explode elsewhere, such as in the US or Canada or Europe. Then, they'll release their numbers, knowing they will be lost in the mix. Anything to try and stay off the front pages. Just my speculation. But by not giving us updates and information the MOPH is asking us to speculate and imagine.

True but they could provide details of where she had been.

They just took out the pending number completely in the last report. It's a total cover-up.

Me too. Maybe more in the 492 Persons Under Investigation category.  

If the Coronavirus infection does incur high transmission rates (human to human) and high mortality rates - a mortality stat that is not an actuality, currently - then there is something not adding up.

 

China has reported 20, 000 people have tested positive, which indicates the transmission rates between humans is high. Yet only 19 such reported cases in Thailand and less elsewhere. The stats just don't make sense - by my reckoning, Thailand, for one, being a country with a lax attitude to prevention of Chinese visitors, should have had at least 1-2 thousand infected by now.

 

While I don't support a cover-up or conspiracy theory, it is as statistically unlikely that a mouse would fall in love with a cat.

 

It begs the question. What is the reality?  What is the government suppressing?

It just needs a few more like this, and a few Chinese going home in body bags to really put the exclamation mark on "Tourism is Dead"

 

Thailand, you have a window to do something meaningful and be a leader...because right now, you aren't even a follower.

 

Weak.

When I fear what is coming comes 'leaders' who prove to be no such thing will face an unparalleled wrath.

Their incompetence becoming common knowledge. Too late for that.

100% in control... according to the clueless PM

It is a cover up the transmission from WHO indicates 4.1 to 2.5 and fatalities @2%

I pity all the low paid workers returning home because the zero tours have been stopped by the chinese authorities.

There where 25k from that city wuhan in thailand in janurary

Keep the borders open General 100 percent under control TIT

This adds a whole new dimension to the Virus outbreak in Thailand.

With poor Hygiene standards in the Wet Markets around the Country, and Sanitation at best described as basic in many areas, this Virus has a natural home to live and evolve.

My Daughter is going on some trip with her School on Saturday, and for fear of being called the worst Dad in the World, I am seriously thinking that she wont be going.( for her Safety )

Before seeing your comment above, I just did a separate thread on that exact same subject -- the removal from the latest government daily update report of all mention of what had been 405 potential cases awaiting lab results:

I think people should be made aware of her movements 

 

authorities in Thailand should be retracing exactly what she did when and where

contact tracing is very crucial. unfortunately it will not be easy as the tourist would have visited many places in thailand.

if the infection is indeed from thailand, then it becomes a very serious issue.

Just saw that! They also removed the entire "Lab results" section criticized yesterday in TV for being suspiciously obtuse about testing. This is the last Lab report from Feb 2. So no way to know anything.

 

Laboratory results identified the novel coronavirus 2019 in 19 cases. Eight of them were discharged from hospitals (Table 2 ) The etiologic agents for the other cases (61) were identified in the final diagnoses as Influenza A virus (11 cases), Influenza B virus (13 cases), Influenza C virus (1 case), Adenovirus (1 case), Streptococcus pneumoniae (1 case), Bronchitis (4 cases), Nasopharyngitis (2 cases), Pharyngitis (8 cases), Common cold (9 cases), RSV infection (3 cases), Tonsillitis (3 cases), Rhinovirus (1 case), Hyperthyroid Fever (1 case), Pneumonia (2 cases) and Acute febrile illness (1 case). There are 405 cases in which laboratory results are pending.

Soon they will not be accepting flights originating in Thailand the hub of incompetence...????

So basically no one knows where she got infected is the story here. Yes she visited Thailand but maybe she has been to China and maybe she got it in Korea...

I just had the most terrible thought enter into my Head.

What if, AND I REPEAT >>IF there were transmissions from this Country to some of the Indian Tourists and returning home.

Mind Boggling consequences.

Under control doesn't mean what you think it means.

The other telling number is they're still officially reporting that 350 people who started out as coronavirus "patients under investigation" remained hospitalized in Thailand as of yesterday...

 

After subtracting the 11 of 19 official virus cases still in hospital, what they're NOT telling, is why those other 339 people are still in hospitals, how many have had final lab tests, and what those lab tests showed.

That's the gist of it. Only fact is it's in Thailand and spreading.
