Popular Post WhatsNext Posted March 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2020 Amazing how much speculation is going on here, if you have to believe this forum then half thailand is either infected or already dead. We are just lucky to be one of the countries with a limited infection rate and it would be nice to keep it that way till the problem is over and done with. Keep calm, reduce your exposure to groups of people and it will pass. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure! The more they close the better. Anyway, closing nothing would be more bad, so closing the bars must still be positive. Then again, according to the WHO, Thailand is praised for doing good. I am more in for trusting WHO than you. No offense. ???? Regarding your PS. You are choosing what is reasonable or sensible based on what you deem is. I am open minded and answering any questions, discussions or other things that might come my way. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaanbiker Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Mr. Anutin said Dr. Kertesz also praised Thailand’s promotion of social distancing as a means of preventing the accelerated spread of the contagion ????? It was actually Bavaria/Germany that has started it. But Thailand is great in copying, we all know that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They put the whole country at risk by putting income above the nations health, they should be ashamed of themselves. Almost zero problems? Russia had over 100 cases in last two days and first death!

Keep calm, reduce your exposure to groups of people and it will pass. Your argument is not really logical. Nobody is saying half of Thailand is infected now. The more real question is whether or not people believe the still very low official numbers. I don't. Do much more testing nationally and you will see much higher numbers. This basic fact has already been proven internationally. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of the new cases are people who were linked to that Bangkok boxing stadium. So far, there are very few official cases outside of Bangkok.

Popular Post 300sd Posted March 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2020 The WHO is pathetic. I think they have done a disservice to the world in their slow re-actions to a calamity in the making. They are a joke. I can't say anything that good for the nutcase beside that WHO rep. Yes good work Thailand you're doing a great job, oh and sorry about that cleaner dropping at the airport while working. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't he the genius who suggested that all foreigners who don't wear face masks should be thrown out of Thailand? Did he address the concern that face masks have become a rare item in Thailand, and because people can't buy them they continue to reuse what masks they have, rendering them worthless and possibly more likely to spread infection. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sapson Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Praised for exporting a huge stockpile of facemasks so the general population cant easily buy any and failing to resolve the situation. Praised for charging its own citizens for a Virus test and allowing private hospitals to price gouge. Praised for the accurate fast and totally transparent release of Covid data.......5555 Praised for the unrestricted welcoming of the Chinese from day one of the virus outbreak. Truly a magnificent effort offering great reassurance to the general populace. Well done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just hoping the alternative explanation, that the heat kills it, is true. On the other hand, most Thais have a pretty limited social circle. Their aversion to, or fear of, foreigners may be a factor. Outside of the tourist areas that is. I'm guessing Pattaya and Phuket are danger zones. Like, most of my relatives by marriage have one contact with a foreigner, and that's me. Having said that, both of my SO's sons work in the hospitality industry, so there's a danger there.

christophe75 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 WHO's praises : -lie -lie again -make the people laugh by your orders and counter-orders -repeat our words like monkeys (but without the bananas) -mimic what other countries are doing, even if it's totally stupid -do not think by yourself -and very important : do not test (use any possible excuses to delay, to postpone, to change the criterias etc.) DO NOT TEST. It's the utmost importance that the livestock, sorry the people, believe that the virus kills half of the infected, that the virus is a "destroyer of worlds". So we need to keep the number of cases LOW. Capiche ? Eventhough the virus is everywhere, and most people do not even feel it. Voilà. If you follow this "plan", you'll get our "praises". Happy ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenhill Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Of course, that's just the WHO representative in Thailand, who lives here and is dependant on the Thai authorities for 'good relations'. Much like foreign ambassadors who hardly ever say a bad word about their host country! It just wouldn't be etiquette! I bet Mr Anutin asked the WHO guy to say this, rather than being initiated from the WHO side!! Just a guess, of course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
