Dangerous places: Covid-19 hotspots in Thailand

[ebean001]

I do not see USA doing this. Even though the dates are old, each person can see if they got exposed and if they feel bad, they need medical help. They need to fond people who got sick to stop the virus. 

Are these all the places....no, only God knows all the places but it is all they know about. people who got the virus have moved on from these places. they have made many more places of concern. In the meantime, the gov is trying hard to find those who moved on. There will become more hotspots

[CiderFizz]

There is a clear explanation for the bar stool fraternity not becoming infected with Corvid 19. We are all urged to rub alcohol on our hand to kill the virus so if it wokrs on the hands it must work in the gut. All bars should be reopened immediately!

Pattaya has had a number of cases, as explained by the Chonburi governor on social media a few days ago, but he believes that all the cases have been successfully contact-traced. I think the list in the OP is of cases and places where the authorities haven't been able to successfully complete the contact tracing, and so they're asking for help.

[Iamemjay]

They've had to open a special hospital unit in Chiangmai to handle the cases there, but CM does not even rate a mention??

To name hot spots means for Thais anywhere else is safe. Hot spots are everywhere now! If you look to the markets, crowed, no distance to anybody, in evening croups sit together and drinking....most people are not aware of the situation and Thailand will run into many many thousands of infection with a horrible peak in 2- 3 weeks!

I couldn't read anywhere how hospitals are prepared for that high peak, how many emergency beds are prepared and and and! I feal great to get latest informations from specialists in Europa,  watch the news and special informations to be aware! And so i can imagine where this country will end up!

Stay home!

Weird that our Pattaya expats haven’t been hit hard yet by this virus.

As it stands now they figured out that the Corona virus prefers overweight and high blood pressured and with a high sugar Level Males ! Those are the ones laying in the ICU in Italy..

 

The Corona virus is too expensive for the Pattaya mob,  they better look out for the Cheap Charlie Chang virus.

Cockfight stadium, Thung Kwao (March 9-12)

Cockfight stadium, Pak Kang (March 9-12)

Cockfight stadium, Wiang Thong (March 9-12)

The police officer with Covid-19 in Kut Chap, Udon Thani, was on holiday to visit his mother. He lives and had attended the boxing fight in Bangkok (March 6-8). When he came to Udon he went all around the place to visit friends and events. He was hospitalized March 22, 14-16 days after he was infected. That's potentially 12 days of spreading the virus before he became isolated.

 

Now, 6 days later, 8 more cases has been confirmed in Udon the last two days. Unknown whether these new cases are related to this officer, as no one says anything, not even to us in the village where he visited his mother.

[Anant72]

I don't see Chaeng Wattana immigration offices, why not? Oh yes, I forgot: national security first: it is more important to stamp a passport than prevent the Covid-19 to spread. The pandemic is not a national security issue, no sir!

[aBigSmile]

Over ten million Thais have likely been exposed to the virus. 

 

In fact, the entire world is going through a process of natural immunization, with the number of exposed in the hundreds of millions. The number new sick will have peaked in two to tree weeks and then rapidly subside.

 

Peace to all

I am not advocating the avoidance of taking precautions. All I am saying is, that I tend to question the intentions of government and authority. That relates to any government, but especially this administration, that cannot be relied upon for fairness, decency, competence, talent, or honesty. Rarely is any governmental authority honorable and noble. A lockdown may have some wisdom at this moment. Maybe. Maybe not.

 

But there is no doubt we are seeing a massive over reaction over this. And there is no doubt, that the economic consequences will be infinitely greater than the death toll.

 

1. Millions will remain out of work for a long time to come.

2. Many will starve in nations like India, that do not have any real, or practical safety net. The $22 billion bailout is not enough there. How much of that money will actually reach those in greatest need? You have a nationwide lockdown, and hundreds of millions of people earning just $2 to $5 a day, in good times. 

3. I do not see Thai tourism EVER recovering to the extent it was before. Why would they return? Why would the Chinese return like before? They will likely choose other nearby countries. It was declining already. Now? What impact will that have on the airline industry? The airports?

4. Will people return to the movie theaters like before? Concerts? 

5. Will people be willing to travel as much as before? Where will they travel to?

6. Will people return to restaurants, and dine out like they did before?

There are an infinite number of questions out there, and they all remain unanswered.

 

This is not the zombie apocalypse, and there is no doubt that the panic, fear and precautions being taken are out of proportion to the risk, by a ridiculous degree.

The list was titled "Hot Spots", not places with positive cases.  I take that to mean places with multiple cases, not just a few.  I am in Chiang Mai and we have nine cases as of yesterday.

Not sure what you're trying to say, but the only thing governments are trying to do is to spread the amount of infected at once over a greater period of time to prevent overloading hospitals, which again may save lives. Not only the lives of the corona infected, but also people in need of treatment for unrelated illnesses.

 

That being said, a pandemic at this scale is something new to anyone under a hundred years old, so what are people going to do when no one knows anything, when no one has the experience? Maybe it's an overreaction, but isn't it better to overreact then to react too late when we discover it is the new Spanish flu?

 

Either way, we'll learn a lot from this, gain much knowledge, become more proactive, have measures in place, but reacting to the pandemic this way I feel we're going to learn a lot more than just observing and predicting. Now we'll have a greater understanding of the effects of mass quarantine has to the spread of the virus, to the economy, people's reactions etc... That may come in handy when the next pandemic comes around, an ebola mutated virus outbreak, Covid-19 mutates for the worse, or who knows what...

By now these places are known and very likely cleaned up.

Now the dangerous places are somewhere else - and maybe in two weeks we know where we had dangerous places today ...

No the person spreading the virus has moved on

Was the amazing exodus of 10000 through the bus station last week on the list?? Or were they all immune?

Is that a joke? If not joking, i highly doubt this to be true. My dad was ex-CIA and I just asked him and he was like “definitely not”. Most Seals and CIA guys that my dad worked with retired in Hawaii and Florida. I think what is more likely is that you have a lot of expats in Pattaya pretending to be spies / Mi6/CIA etc to seem cool and important amongst other expats. It’s not uncommon for people to lie about being a government spy. 

Is that actually true though ?

Are there numerous people in Pattaya pretending to be ex MI6 /CIA/SAS/Spys etc, or has that been repeated so many times people believe it to be true ?

   I have yet to meet any of these people, although I have never been to Pattaya
