Popular Post webfact Posted June 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2020 Only after another 14 days without domestic Covid-19 cases can Thailand 'consider itself safe By The Nation Thailand has had 13 days without any Covid-19 case and can consider itself safe if the trend continues for another 14 days, Dr Panprapa Yongtrakul, deputy spokeswoman of the government’s Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration, said on Sunday (June 7) .According to epidemiology and disease investigation for Covid-19, there is a 14-day incubation period but the low-risk virus period is two times the incubation period, which is 28 days, she said. Panrapa added that even though the country has not found any domestic cases for 13 days, people still have to act responsibly and follow disease prevention and control measures, wear a face mask, keep a distance, wash hands, and avoid going to crowded places.

I’ve never heard of it and I’ve been following this whole thing closely, as have the majority of us I would think. A Google search returned the following, which suggests incubation beyond 14 days is negligible, i.e. around 1%. There were 181 confirmed cases with identifiable exposure and symptom onset windows to estimate the incubation period of COVID-19. The median incubation period was estimated to be 5.1 days (95% CI, 4.5 to 5.8 days), and 97.5% of those who develop symptoms will do so within 11.5 days (CI, 8.2 to 15.6 days) of infection. These estimates imply that, under conservative assumptions, 101 out of every 10 000 cases (99th percentile, 482) will develop symptoms after 14 days of active monitoring or quarantine.

Popular Post JCP108 Posted June 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2020 So, all they have to do before the 28 days is up is report one case of local transmission and the 28-day clock will restart. They pulled this 28 day thing out of their <deleted>. The Thai people in my neighborhood clearly aren't believing this, either. No masks. No distancing. The temp checker at the local night markets are gone. 18 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 5633572526 Posted June 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2020 It is lost on the idiots running this country that the object of social distancing, masks etc. was to “flatten the curve” so that hospitals would not be overwhelmed, not to eliminate the virus completely. The virus is not gone now nor will it be until there is a vaccine. To cripple your economy and starve your people in some vane finger pointing opportunity for a photo op is insanity. The first plane load of tourists will put the virus back in the news as most countries with competent leadership understand the term “flatten the curve” 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
