These people probably won't have empty homes to go to, they will return to family or stay with friends until they get their own place sorted out, especially if they've been away for years. I guess some of them might stay in hotels - depends on how much money they've saved while working in Korea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sahibji Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 hm returning from south korea and have fever - will make a highly suspect case. best option would be to isolate them in a dedicated facility.test should also be done to check for corona infection.

The notion this government doesn't have the authority to do something like that is total B.S., especially after the formal emergency declaration that took effect Sunday making CV a dangerous infectious disease and giving them broad powers to contain it. Exactly right. Also this government seems to be ignoring the issue now. They can do something with these infected people coming to Thailand. Force quarantine as mentioned here from the Wuhan evacuees. I also say this is total B.S. by just telling them to quarantine themselves. We all know that will not work and if they are infected with the virus, then it will just spread like wildfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExpatOilWorker Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 From totalitarian regimes to nanny states, I thing the coronavirus script is being written as we type. China did the lock down, Italy is closing schools and universities for a few weeks, others impose various degree of travel restrictions. At the end, as we see in Germany right now community spread will eventually happen and then body count will start to pile up. The nanny states will come out saying, we did the best we could to prevent it and in the process strengthen the power of the state. Thailand could use this Korean influx of patients as an excuse and start to reveal the real numbers. Singapore is the only shining star with their amazing transparency. BRAVO! Iran seem to have lost the plot completely, but the leadership is way past their due date anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meechai Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 (edited) The disconcerting part is the fact that so many with high fever were allowed to board in Korea This seems to imply no checking at Korea Airport or...Korea are just glad to rid Korea of the Thai sex workers? In any case it shows total disregard for all the other passengers on the plane & the ability to pass the infection on. Next you have Thailand's side & their only bullet is to tell them to stay home for 14 days Most know this will not work because many of these "workers" have nobody & will go out to get food etc as soon as able/possible or worse yet return to "work" On the other hand with 5000-20,000 possibly returning Thailand really has no option. Not enough rooms nor jail cells for a bump that big This is looking like "The Stand" not so much because in that story a pandemic killed so many but because half were stuck in Colorado & half in Vegas The more things like this happen the more likely other countries will start refusing incoming from certain countries I think folks should consider the possibility of restricted travel/exit ahead. Not necessarily because Thailand wont let you leave but possibly (like UAE) other countries wont let you enter Edited March 4, 2020 by meechai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMEinBangkok Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Most of the times after I reading the comments in a TV forum posting, I'm pretty sure that whatever intellectual capacity I might have, has been diminished. Each year the seasonal flu kills around 500,000 world wide. So....let the panic begin....haha! Quick, jump on a motorbike taxi with no helmet on your way to get drunk, take a 'boner' pill bought from a street vendor and have unprotected sex with a prostitute. But, let's moan on and on about something that to date has killed fewer people than the seasonal flu. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
