BANGKOK (Reuters) - Thailand reported on Saturday 45 new coronavirus infections and two more deaths.

 

The dead were Thai men, said Taweesin Wisanuyothin, a spokesman of the government's Center for COVID-19 Situation Administration.

 

The Southeast Asian nation has registered a total of 2,518 cases and 35 deaths since its outbreak emerged in January.

I had been hoping it was going to drop a bit more than that, but it seems to confirm a downward trend over the last ten days or so.

It would be very handy for numbers to drop away after the Songkran period has passed.

[kevin612]

That’s what I expected around this figure. Stay safe, everyone.

[Guderian]

They've evidently given up trying to stop the Songkran celebrations in Pattaya, and the attempt to do the same elsewhere seems to amount to little more than a half-baked ban on the sale of alcohol in a few places, a lot of pleading in the media, and a six-hour curfew in the dead of night long after the Songkan revellers will have collapsed to the ground drunk. I hope I'm wrong here, but I have a feeling the numbers are going to start shooting up again in late-April and May. Why is the government risking throwing away everything that has been achieved so far, and indeed potentially making matters far worse, are they really so incapable of controlling their own people?

[dinsdale]

Relects testing. I would really like to know the criteria. Downward trend yes, but why? It is now a 'fact' that China has no new infections other than the disease riddled foreigners. This of course is rediculous in a population of a billion+. When someone can show me the criteria for covid-19 stats in Thailand and how this is collated I'll have more faith in these numbers. Testing in countries with high testing in the population is showing a near 50% of those tested being asymtomatic. Are asympomatic people here included in the stats. If not this is just one example of how the numbers do not represent reality.

[Yadon Toploy]

Predictable.

I heard a lot of stories last night about how people are being kept in the provinces they were in when it really started sometime around the end of March. Earthmovers used to pile dirt on the lanes at highway checkpoints. People unable to even leave their villages. So I would argue that measures are being taken.

[Solidpoo]

BS figures. I dont believe it one bit. Especially with countries with discipline people and much better healthcare like Japan and Singapore are struggling with 100 over cases per day

Apparently checkpoints to be reinstated (different places) beginning of the week.

[KhunJH]

Yesterday there were 11 cases in Bangkok. Wonder how many there are here today of the 45 nationwide?

[Bkk Brian]

Whether or not the figures are to be believed, the lockdown measures in Thailand are to be applauded and the only way to contain the virus. Would like to see more testing though.

They don't care about controlling the people only controlling the people's money.

[Eibot]

Figures are fairly meaningless. No high influx in the hospitals, or increased deaths/funerals. Like we have been saying for weeks, the climate has a positive influence on the virus. My bet is that we're opening up.again after 30/04. We have to open up since the government is seemingly avoiding helping people out with their 5k per month.

 

The biggest risk will be opening up for tourists. They should avoid this, but economic wise they can't.

Yes, he must be, because if what he says is true, that "Earthmovers used to pile dirt on the lanes at highway checkpoints. People unable to even leave their villages", then I am 100% sure that it would be all over social media with the title of "We have been trapped in our village please help us" I think people would be all over it if this was true.....so another fake news story.

To be safe, I hope they keep restrictions/lockdowns until June 1.

[SidJames]

They have closed Thai schools until the 1st July

Tourists coming back at all this year is pure fantasy.

Yes, that post is a real truthful post and has merit, where the statement he made about earth movers piling dirt in front of villages has no facts in essence one can find anywhere, is the point I was making.

 

Sorry i got a little off topic:

 

With 45 new CV cases, how many were tested, where were these new confirmed patients, and where were the deceased from.

Edited April 11, 2020 by ThailandRyan

[fred110]

How old were the dead? Did they have other health problems?

Y’all do know that there are other news sources in Thailand don’t you?

[Canuck1966]

How does your local simpleton rationalise the whole country shutting down for 30 deaths in 3 months 

They don't even close down a lane of a road  when 30 passengers are expunged from the records in a minibus crash!

Absolute madness and economic suicide on a scale never seen before

My point was that if villages were being locked off by bulldozing the roads in front of them here like they did in China, then it would be all over the news or by viral means on social media....sorry if I was not clear.
