webfact Posted May 5, 2020 Author Share Posted May 5, 2020 Thailand reports one new coronavirus case, no new deaths People in face masks run inside a park, after the government started opening some restaurants outside shopping malls, parks, and barbershops during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak in Bangkok, Thailand, May 3, 2020. REUTERS/Athit Perawongmetha BANGKOK (Reuters) - Thailand on Tuesday reported one new coronavirus case and no new deaths, the lowest number of new infections since March 9. The new case is a 45-year-old Thai man from the southern province of Narathiwat, authorities said. The number of new cases have been declining in the last two weeks with the exception of a cluster at an immigration detention centre in southern Thailand that has seen 60 new cases in that period, said Taweesin Wisanuyothin, spokesman for the government's Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration. Since Thailand's outbreak began in January, the country has seen a total of 2,988 coronavirus cases and 54 deaths. Taweesin said 2,747 patients have recovered, while 187 are still being treated in hospitals.

Why all this about not testing, the UK have quadruple there testing over the last few days I would have thought we would see increase of cases from there but no increase only a decrease in cases and deaths so maybe testing is not everything 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy, someone posted who was not authorized too, and now those tests have vanished and replaced with only the 18 Rohingya in the detention center...but zero elsewhere....bad boy to post something from the south without asking the MOPH....go figure... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post dinsdale Posted May 5, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 5, 2020 If anyone believes this they must be either insane or stupid. China, Wuhan, 0 infections. I've been saying this for ages Prayut is taking this straight from the CCP playbook of non-transperency and misinformation. Add to that a complete lack of testing and you get this absolute lie to the people of Thailand. Unfortunately there are many blind sheep that will take this as truth. 6 1 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JCP108 Posted May 5, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 5, 2020 If you compare the number of deaths in Thailand from Covid 19 this year in total with the number of deaths of the first four months from the standard flu virus (8k [Thailand data from 2017 of around 24k deaths for the year as reported in a thread on here by another poster]), then you would have to believe that the Covid 19 mortality rate in Thailand is about one half of one percent (54/8,000) as deadly as the normal flu. Doesn't reflect what is being reported in the rest of the world outside of China. Confused. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what is Thailand doing right that India is doing wrong? Not overbreeding, perhaps. India has a population 15 times the size of Thailand's and a population density 3 times greater. Namibia has seen 16 infections and no deaths. Perhaps we need to ask what they are doing right that Thailand is doing wrong. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In regards to deaths it's hard to know. The UK wasn't including deaths in oldies homes for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well your 6-year old must be almost as dumb as you evidently are, lol. How does having a population just twenty times as large as Thailand's result in four thousand times as many new cases in one day, as well as 195 deaths compared with none in Thailand for several days now? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aspaltso Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Seems like the deep south is becoming the new hot spot in country. Many feel like "gods will" will either afflict them with virus, or not, and social distancing makes no difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
