How virus is spreading in Thailand

By The Nation

 

 

Men carry twice the risk of Covid-19 infection than women, the deputy director-general of the Department of Disease Control told reporters on Wednesday (March 25).

 

Dr Asadang Ruayajin also noted that the flu-like symptoms associated with Covid-19 were observable in only one in every five confirmed cases.

 

Most of Thailand’s confirmed case have been found in Bangkok and the metropolitan area. Most of the foreign victims detected in Thailand have been Chinese, French and British.

 

Most of the confirmed cases found in Bangkok and vicinity have been traced to a single day of boxing events at Lumpinee Stadium. The bulk of the rest came from close contact with previously confirmed victims. Most cases in the southern border provinces originated at religious ceremonies in Malaysia.

And I was told today that the emergency measure to be taken tomorrow is.... a curfew!

That's really going to stop it once it hits the factories...

Does he really mean asymptomatic? How about symptoms of the 4630 PUI undergoing treatment in hospital for weeks, listed as 'results pending'? Or the 663 confirmed cases currently undergoing treatment? Treatment for what? So far only 57 have recovered and discharged.

Men smoke more, drink more, and avoid medical attention more than women and that surely is related to their increased risk at least somewhat. Chinese men in particular smoke an awful lot.

[dinsdale]

Well let's let the Chinese in. We need their money. Good idea. "I'm in control now" he says. Who was in control before. Whose decicision was to let the Chinese in? Who's decision was it to let this boxing farce go ahead?  This is an out of control train being driven by someone with no arms, no legs or a brain. What is on display is the intelligence of people who have had their way to the top paid for and bought. It doesn't bode well.

Same as in S. Korea, same as in Iran, and probably in many other places as well. I think it's GOD message to us all - Religions are BAD. Stay away from ANY religion!!!

With all these experts and the information you have, it is really strange that you have not yet managed to eliminate Covid-19 ...

As yet no explanation from the "army" who organised and after being asked to cancel the event went ahead with it?

I was reading yesterday the China has one of the highest percentages of smokers on the planet, yet only 3% of the women smoke. That means an awful lot of the men smoke.

[yellowboat]

Now all those from Bangkok are in the countryside infecting elderly people.  cha cha leadership does not go beyond his fancy dress or his borish statements.

????????????????

That's how it spread

Well it's obvious how C19 spreads you get it from someone who is in the incubation period and still feels ok.

Anyone can be spreading the coronavirus without realising they've got it.

There has been professional comment on news venues that smokers are more at risk to C-19

In fact when you go to the church or the mosque to talk to God, that's when he can see you. And when you tell him the things you did wrong he gets angry and strikes you down with a virus. 

 

It is far safer to go where God doesn't look. Like in a bar or a massage parlour.

I doubt it's that, I've noticed Thais coughing away with no mask close to friends and no one blinks an eyelid

Exactly how it spreads, I have say a majority of our village people are very scared and taking care as much as they can.

[Tropposurfer]

I went to Villa Market in Bang Tao an hour ago.

The only people I saw without masks and actively ignoring the staff at the entrance offering hand sanitizing gel and to wipe the handlebars of the trolleys coming in from outside were Falangs (Europeans). Of folks in the store, Asian and European ratio to Euro was high on the European side. I doesn't know about 'dirty falangs' but the actions I saw this morning sure seem to to show indifference to self and others at best, and perhaps white-privilege arrogance at worst (i.e. I won't get it, I'm somehow immune, I couldn't have it and therefore have no need to wear a mask or uptake hand cleaning protocols?

Fat people are also at bigger risks according to the doctors in Italy.

correct, read from a different post:

 

https://www.nationthailand.com/news/30384808

 

However, the statement did not respond to the rumour that the Boxing Board had requested cancellation of the matches on March 6 in a letter sent to the management of the stadium dated March 4.

[burgdawg]

interesting take here that a population with malaria exposure more likely to resist corona virus.

Apparently estrogen plays a key role here.

Have fine particles accelerated the spread of the virus in northern Italy?

This is the hypothesis put forward by Italian researchers to understand why the virus seemed to spread faster in the regions of northern Italy, highly industrialized and subject to pollution peaks.

 

If this turns out to be correct, Thailand, which regularly breaks records in this subject, will experience an unprecedented crisis.

In Spain people trow stones at on a convoy of ambulances transporting patients to a quarantine location. Human stupidity begins to uncover

[Eibot]

Chill out...It doesn't seem to spread nearly as much in warmer countries..it spreads, but not nearly as fast thus not putting any strain on the health system. 

[vangrop]

If as stated the infection started in Wue China. The how it was spreaded is simply an infectional domino effect. For Example an infected Wue person travels by plane to Swampy, infecting neighbours on the plane, those people then infecting others. The person taxes a cab to Pattaya infecting the driver who infects his family. At the hotel he could infect staff, other tourists for example an Italian and so on. The only efficient remedy is isolation. The virus will be stopped being unable to multiply.

Don't forget hand sanitizer.
