No he is waiting for the "magic number" of infections and deaths, before he does that. One cannot rush these things, after all his Health Minister claims WHO is full of admiration of their actions Are chin masks the new fashion trend??

Popular Post sapson Posted March 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2020 For the hundredth time of mentioning it. How about starting with the simple tasks first, like making face masks and sanitizer gel available to buy at all pharmacies nationwide at normal prices!!! Could the PM possibly manage that ......maybe he needs the weekend to think about it. Divert the smart BMWS from the oh so important task of arresting farangs for heinous visa violations and use them as a rapid delivery fleet for the menial less important supply of essentials to your people. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can never stop the virus so there will be many many thousands who will inevitably catch Covid-19. Once this is understood, the governments must take the necessary steps to slow the spread. Option 1. If we all carried on as normal there would be a massive influx of people with Covid-19 and the hospitals just wouldn’t cope. Not nice for a Doctor to have to decide who lives and who dies. Option 2. If there was an immediate lock down of every establishment and everyone had to remain in lock down, then the virus would incubate. When the people would eventually be released from homes, the virus would be more virulent and spread like wild fire. Not to mention the panic! Option 3. So, option 3 appears to be what the experts are putting forward. If you can’t stop the spread, a gradual slow down is required, so some people will inevitably catch the virus but it will slow down as more restrictions are enforced. This way, the amount of infected people will be spread over a much more lengthy period, which will, in turn, help to alleviate the overcrowding of hospitals. At least, this is what I understand the reasoning. Not sure what you mean by the virus will incubate. My understanding is that's the period betwee catching it and showing symptoms. That happens inside you with any virus. Or do you mean mutate ( change ) and that can make it weaker or stronger.

I dont disagree with anything you say. It was more the case that until they declare a lockdown as such I can’t see behaviours changing. Where they leave grey areas it will just generally be ignored. Ive just travelled from the sticks down to Udon. First impressions driving to and from the airport I see many noodles bars with Thais all huddled up. I think unless they come out and clearly ban certain practices they will pretty much just carry on as usual. I will have a stroll out later and see if there has been any real change in attitude. I was here 2 weeks ago at the weekend so will be interesting to see. PS Grab and Panda must be raking in it, or soon will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand is now paying the price for not doing anything pro-active, As for tour operators they happily took the money from the infected Chinese over the New Year, now you can share the bad times too... hope you put some money in the bank because you're going to need it. This year is dead, and next year will be a very slow recovery.. but most of you would have gone under by then. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The virus can stay on a surface for up to 24 hours, IMO this is one of the most obvious ways to pass the virus on. I'm not sure who is going to advise Cha Cha. The medics know precious little, the TAT team even less and the military have got the commandoes at the ready, but no real plan. My advice it to only handle money (coin and paper) if you have gloves on. Keep any money in a sealed metal box at home. To safeguard others, tip the money into a ceramic dish (that has had a alcohol wipe) and put them into the microwave for a couple of minutes. Care must be taken when the money has just come out as the coins will be quite hot. And also a word of caution, go easy with the alcohol. Just a smear for anything going into the microwave.

To be a little more practical regarding paper money, then iron it briefly at a high temperature and wash hands afterwards as the temperature of the iron will nuke anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
