Dropping below 100 is a welcome sign, but one Swallow, a summer doth not make. I seriously hope that the corner is being turned here, but maybe a little premature to breathe too easy, especially while the actual number of tests being performed remains unknown.

I don't believe this daily number is correct at all.Porky pie's i think.

It's the tip of the iceberg really, most people diagnosed probably need hospital care, all the rest are trying to get through it at home

But should they come from the originally infected areas, or the new ones that are springing up now that they're relaxing the restrictions, lol?

It's ok. Hopefully you'll have a life time ahead of you to learn difficult words like sorry, yesterday and today. I know "This is today" is a difficult sentence and "Sorry. Yesterday." meaning I realized my mistake, maybe conceptually difficult for you but keep practicing and one day you might understand.

****Apologies to my 10yr old daughter who fully understands my post and my admitting to a mistake. 11th birthday may not be accurate.

sweet, numbers dropping nicely 

 

at this rate we'll all be reminiscing about the 'rona days by songkran

Good news, the curfew is beginning to work ????

Right,no law says you have to test and if you choose to test no law says how much you have to test or is there?Are there international obligations binding enough to force testing or to even care for or about one's citizen's well being?Way over my head those answers.With the WHO patting Thailand on the head for it's handling of the pandemic who knows?Maybe even the WHO maybe liable for their seemingly erroneous advice not to restrict international travel when it was still possible to contain the outbreak in the early days.Davross the dithering Dalek seemed more concerned about economics than human survival.Where's Doctor Who when you need him?

I don't know if it's my phone causing the problem but those graphs are woefull to say the least. Can I assume they are parts of more fuller graphs at world meters....which I clicked on and saw many different things but nothing similar. ????

Sounds like good news to me, why the sour grapes. Fuddy duds just see misery I guess.

I hate to burst your bubble but the figures are not a true representation of the true situation. I am sure it is not going down, judging by every other country that has contracted the virus Thailand is just at the beginning. If you look at the USA it has over 277,000 cases but they have conducted nearly 1.4 million tests. Thailand has 2067 cases but has only tested 339 in the entire country! you can see this data on the worldometer which is used for pretty much all countries data for all news medias, google it and see for yourself. i would strongly advise staying in until this blows over, you do not want to be catching this viruse, especially if you are of a more mature age or if you have any medical conditions such as diabetes. stay safe, good luck..

CCP way of counting. Coming soon no new cases and testing 70,000,000 a day. Sad thing is there's some CCP fanboys new to TV who would argue 'til they're black and blue that it's true.

This time next week we will all be sat in our favourite bars; a girl on each arm; drinking a toast to the great leader.

Get a grip. There is nothing unusual about people being taken ill on trains or in streets. It's part of normal life. We all get sick sometimes. We all eventually die. 

 

What is NOT normal is the unprecedented trashing of our traditional rights and freedoms on the pretext of saving us from a virus of modest lethality and dubious origins. Could there be a hidden agenda?

I don’t know for some reason I’m having a hard time believing any numbers the Thai government puts out it’s kind a like the way they current road accident kills here are figured out TIT

So there is nothing wrong with dying on the train because you had COVID-1.....in what world is that ok.  It just goes to tell you folks are not going to the hospital. I am pretty sure had he died at home they never would have tested him for it......
