These people live in the land of make beleive, they cannot accept truth, defeat or logic. Get real!!! Most foregiiners have had enough of a racist, expensive, polluted, unsafe, extortionate, filthy, dirty place.. Clean your act up, demonstrate far more respect toward foreigners, the very people that help Thai to exsist! Foreigners do not need Thailand, but Thailand needs foreigners! Simple truth and a fact! So accept the truth or go under. UP TO YOU! You over estimate your worth to Thailand, it's not even close to a fraction of what you think. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. 5G in South Korea, Japan and Hong Kong? Yes. In Thailand? Not that I am aware of...I need help here...is there 5G in Bangkok anyone?

Dutyfirst Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Actually what he is saying has some basis. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2863430/https://www.hindawi.com/journals/av/2011/734690/ These studies demonstrate that the virus get inactivated at much faster rates in hot and humid weather. Combined with the other factors of how viruses tend to spread less in summer months this might be a glimmer of hope for SE Asia. It also might explain why there has been huge surges in numbers in areas like Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia like the other much colder climates in Asia and not some crazy govt coverup as suggested.

Look at the cases in Kuwait and you will see the vast majority of 8 (hardly a large amount to consider it a pandemic) all just returned from Iran. Now go look at the daily temperatures in Iran which are around 10 degrees (c). Now go read the studies and see where the virus start to lose a decent amount of effectiveness which is around 28 degrees. So not sure how these cases in Kuwait are relevant to the climate in SEA at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambum Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 (edited) Pipat Ratchakitprakarn said he expects everything will be much better for Thailand by Songkran - mid April. He told Thai Rath after a meeting in the south that the virus does not like hot weather and along with other countries entering summer its impact will lessen. Plus he expected his Chinese friends to have come up with a vaccine by then. From today's update on the BBC website:- "The state-run Global Times reported that scientists had made progress on developing an oral vaccine, with a professor at Tianjin University taking four doses with no side effects. But experts warn that until full clinical trials have taken place it is unclear how safe or effective the vaccines will be and it could still be months before they can be made widely available." The man is perfect for the job - talks absolute garbage! Edited February 25, 2020 by sambum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally irrelevant - these articles are about the SARS virus - not the current outbreak of Covid-19 which may or may not react in the same way - NOBODY KNOWS YET!!!

assayer Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 To his credit there was an article that said EXTREME heat killed the virus. I am not sure that 38 degrees celcius qualifies as extreme heat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retsdon Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) It's an interesting anomaly that while in cold and temperate climates the normal flu virus survives better and propogates more readily in cold, dry weather, in the tropics the opposite is true and flu infections climb during the rainy season. So if Covid-19 follows the same pattern, it's more likely that the worst is yet to come. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2013/03/08/173816815/flu-risk-and-weather-its-not-the-heat-its-the-humidity Edited February 26, 2020 by retsdon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtls2005 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) "Normal" flu season here is June through October. No clue if CV19 follows the same patterns. Also no clue if the use of aircon (low temp/low humidity) is a factor here? Slowing/delaying the spread seems beneficial, for any number of reasons. Obviously places like Singapore, (hot and humid) have issues: see SARS and H1N1, even with CV19. Counting on high temps and humidty as a silver bullet seems silly.

Maybe it is the pollution keeping the virus numbers down. Opposite.. PM2.5 causes inflammation of the respitory tract making it easier for the virus to catch on. That's why smokers are in the risk group. Edited February 26, 2020 by DrTuner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Songkran is made by the people, I haven't seen many organized parties outside Bangkok. Other than posting soldiers in every corner ready to shoot back with live ammo, I don't see Thais stopping to do whatever they have done for ages, no matter if there's an army of zombies gnawing their jugulars or not. They are just too bullheaded and fatalistic. That said, there's a major drought going on. Just close the reservoir outflows for the duration.
