Popular Post christophe75 Posted March 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 1, 2020 The article on Nation gives more details and the timeline. They have tried everything on him : the new antiviral drug (China), Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation, and even serum from patient who recovered. They said that the virus was gone by february 16 (?)... But damages done were already too severe. Full scale care, staff and equipment, and even some special drugs... But the guy didn't make it. It easy to imagine the outcome... if the healthcare system can not handle anymore and can not answer with such force (China, Iran...). The people who think they are smart by repeating like parrot some inane "mortality rate" figures... should rethink, twice. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The address has apparently not changed since the virus first appeared and was unidentified and unnamed, thus it was referred to by what it did.......gave you viral pneumonia. At this address the document is titled "Coronavirus Disease 2019 Situation": https://ddc.moph.go.th/viralpneumonia/eng/file/situation/situation-no56-280263.pdf "On 28 February 2020 at 18.00, Thailand announced 361 additional people met the criteria for patients under investigation, raising the total to 2,798 PUIs as shown in Table 1." How do you find the above report from the https://ddc.moph.go.th site? I tried V, P and C under disease, but no Viralpneumonia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This graph is more telling than one death. The rapid rise in PUI with very little rise in cases confirms their game plan. The rapid rise in PUI at this time of year can only be from nCoV2019. Note 1200+ cases have recovered but were never confirmed. So they are simply treating patients as if they had nCoV2019, letting them recover and go home without recorded testing. Yesterday they announced 6 major BKK hospitals were now testing but demanded all hospitals report results to the ministry within 3 hrs. I now read that to mean all hospitals must report within 3 hrs only to the ministry. Thai style, almost same same as testing everyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webfact Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 Covid-19 claims first life in Thailand By The Nation A 35-year-old Thai man, who worked as a salesman and had been infected with Covid-19, died on Saturday (February 29) at 6.25pm, the director of communicable diseases, Dr Sopon Iamsirithawon, said on Sunday (March 1). The patient, who had a history of contact with Chinese customers, had no underlying disease and was receiving standard treatment at Bamrasnaradura Infectious Disease Institute (BIDI) and stayed on Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO). The patient was given favipiravir, an experimental antiviral treatment, and white blood cell serum from a patient who had recovered. The virus had completely gone since February 16, but his lungs suffered a lot of damage. The patient passed away peacefully after fighting the illness for one month, the director said. “This is an important example of how the disease can spread in people without symptoms or with small symptoms, and can become a crisis even without underlying diseases,” said Thiravat Hemachudha, the Head of the Centre for Emerging Infectious Diseases Health Science Centre. The patient had admitted himself in a private hospital and was diagnosed with dengue fever on January 27. He later tested positive for Covid-19 and was transferred to BIDI on February 5. The nurse who took care of the patient on the first day also developed severe pneumonia on both sides of the lung but, fortunately, she received medication in time and returned home after recovery. However, it has damaged her lungs. Meanwhile, two patients -- both Chinese -- are reported to have recovered from Covid-19 and were ready to return home. Thailand now has 42 confirmed cases: 30 have returned home after recover, 11 are under medical care, and one person has died.

webfact Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 First COVID-19 related death in Thailand A medical panel, from Thailand’s National Infectious Committee, will determine the exact cause of the death of a COVID-19 patient, who contracted dengue fever prior to becoming infected with the coronavirus. Disease Control Department director-general Dr. Suwanchai Wattanayingcharoenchai said today the victim, a 35-year old Thai man, one of two severe COVID-19 cases in Thailand, had been cleared of the COVID-19 virus on February 16th, following one month of treatment in hospital, but subsequently died of lung and heart failure. Since the patient caught dengue fever before he was treated for the COVID-19 infection, he said that it was not yet clear which infection had contributed the most to the patient’s death, so the medical panel will investigate the exact cause of the death, he added.

neeray Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 I take comfort in the fact that at least this death was reported. Perhaps too many medical staff knew the real details and it wasn't worth the risk of a cover up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their sources are linked and it is in my opinion one of the most reliable Covid trackers out there. Do I trust info coming from China? No but thats another debate. Their sources are not China only but all world data. Hint* all aggregated new case websites have lag due to different time zones and will give slightly different numbers including https://bnonews.com/index.php/2020/02/the-latest-coronavirus-cases/ which I also use and have an alert set up for updates.
