50 or so cases and what? 2 or 3 deaths? from what again?

 

this site is a little dated but great for looking at death rates by cause by country> https://www.worldlifeexpectancy.com/thailand-life-expectancy

 

"According to the latest WHO data published in 2017 Influenza and Pneumonia Deaths in Thailand reached 60,321 or 12.04% of total deaths."

That averages just over 5,000 dead per month from the typical flu and pneumonia.

50 or so cases and what? 2 or 3 deaths? from what again? The WuFlu Terror?

 

For those with a brain and some common sense, you will see the emperor has no cloths, not in this nor any other country. But go ahead and stock up on toilet paper, keep wearing those coffee filters on your face, and walk around in fear because the WuFlu terror is coming for you next! 

 

It's got to be the same people who pushed and believed that stopping all plastic shopping bags was going to save the country, the whales, the children, the whole planet. I have no other explaination.

 

You misundertstand the  flu fatality number, as do  many who tort it out to downplay the SARS-CoV-2 potency. Almost no one dies from an influenza infection in itself. It is someone with a  chronic illness who then contracts  influenza. The significance with a SARS-Cov-2 caused infection is that in addition to killing those with chronic  diseases, it kills in and of itself. It  does this by inflaming the lungs such that the  infected person cannot breathe, and who then suffocates.

More importantly,  as the Italian experience is now demonstrating 10% of Italian patients require ICU care. The Italian health care system cannot cope and is now on the brink of collapse. That's the key issue. Health care and access to a respirator is being rationed.  No country has the capacity to handle the ICU patient requirement.
