It only needed a few Chinese to spread it and they did. Far more likely that business people visiting Wuhan would have been the main carriers which is why it spread so rapidly to the western countries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would need to show me where on your link it confirms that 100K were carried out in one day by the 1st May. At the beginning of April, Matt Hancock pledged that the UK would be carrying out 100,000 tests for coronavirus by the end of the April. https://www.channel4.com/news/factcheck/factcheck-the-target-was-for-100000-tests-a-day-to-be-carried-out-not-capacity-to-do-100000-tests But questions have been raised over how the tests have been counted, with the figure including tens of thousands of home kits which have been delivered, but haven’t yet been returned. The overall total also includes tests dispatched to ‘satellite testing locations’ – such as hospitals that have a particularly urgent need – but does not detail whether the tests have actually been used.

Dave0206 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 It seems strange to me that any of our members have the opinion that by Britain doing a tit for tat response to Thailand by making any Thai National do 14 day quarantine that this will have any effect on thai government. Do we honestly think that prayut or his ilk worry about any issan wife or girlfriend having to overcome 1 more hurdle to visit Partners or husbands abroad? No matter which country in the world you choose normal restrictions only apply for non political connected paupers if you have connections and money world welcomes you with open palms sorry mean arms ( Saudi Arabia eg) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? Here's what you claimed: "And the UK has lied consistently on testing, got caught doing it over and over again and then stopped releasing test data. They only talk about testing capacity, big deal, they can say have 20 million a day capacity, but if they’re only testing 50k it’s pointless." Where's your proof to back up this nonsense?

Cake Monster Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 10 hours ago, Trillian said: Once again, does doing more tests change the number of deaths! No ! But it would highlight the number of people that are freely walking about in Society without showing any symptoms, but are Covid +. No testing = no problem It is my belief that this is the reason for all the paranoia from the Authorities, and these folk will be the catalyst for a second wave. Should the Tourist arrive back to LOS, and then become infected, that will be the death nail for Thai Tourism, and that is something the Government cannot tolerate.

There's no consistency in the way countries have been reporting figures, or attributing causes of deaths. Until there is, all the figures are just rough guides at best.
