I had no idea and just looked it up:- Bang Kwang Central Prison: Located 11 km north of Bangkok in Nonthaburi province. Nicknamed the ‘Big Tiger’ reputedly due to its ability to eat men alive, the prison contains over 4,000 inmates. The prison is the seat of Thailand’s execution chamber and death row. Bang Kwang has a reputation for its harsh conditions. All inmates are required to wear leg shackles for the first 3 months of their sentence. https://www.thaiexaminer.com/thai-news-foreigners/2017/12/06/more-foreign-criminals-in-thai-prison-but-is-conflicting-reports-on-harsh-conditions/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow I think this is fake news. How fake news? The article reads. "A PRISON has been placed on lockdown today after an inmate collapsed in his cell with suspected coronavirus after returning from a Thai jail." 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to read those figures again, 18% was how many had died of the virus of those closed cases. Infected are 60,376 and of those, 1369 have died. An infection starts, you live, you live and then you either die or continue to live, either way an infected may be cleared early on or as a precaution, still considered to have it for a period of time. According to my calculations, the percentage for dying is closer to 2.3%, which is a very high percentage in my view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God help us all. God help thailand. i am not trying to be dramatic here. something huge, dark and scary is walking behind the scenes. So now you come into Thailand and are refused entry so your thrown in to a holding cell and you contract corona virus so do you sue them the Thai government or your own government who do nothing and you bring the virus back to your own country. Let's see where this goes right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you have a flood of cases the ability to provide oxygen to severe cases will be problematic since there would likely not be enough supply.
