Do you ever wonder why Spain, Brazil and Italy have traces of Covid-19 in their March, November and December 2019 sewage samples? How come those countries didn't report that a novel coronavirus had appeared in their countries? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The health official said this (large) facility has seen several outbreaks over the last 10 years, often noravirus or flu, it's certainly nothing out of the ordinary, he said.

Visarghhhh Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 First I think Thailand should let in the people on O-A visas, who are long stay and not tourists. O-A Retirees can pay for tests and quarantine and have close ties to people and loved ones in Thailand. Some of us got stuck outside and are trying to get back. Tourists can come later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titan1962 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Yes why not,don’t worry about the rest of the country that’s just getting back to some sort of normality. Like the street market vendor,the fresh fruit market sellers,the locals that cater to the locals. Let’s take the chance and hope we don’t have to shut all these places down and go back to a curfew like before. No planes flying,restricted movement between provinces. Sounds like someone might have a certain type of business that’s going broke. Don’t get me wrong,I am all for opening up the borders and allowing tourists back in,but if there’s a chance that it could put thailand into a Melbourne situation again,definitely not. This virus came from China and crippled Thailand and is tourists industry,has china offered any compensation to places like phuket,Pattaya. I bet not.

I live here, but I wouldn't be tempted to visit as a tourist..........Thailand has sold its soul to the devil. Other way around for me. No way I'd willingly submit to the Imm. IMO barking regulations again, but I'd happily visit regularly on visa exempt, or Elite if I could afford it. IMO many countries sold their souls long ago, so I don't get the choice of a country with a soul anyway. At least in LOS I could enjoy my life for a while.

Vietnam was much cleaner than Thailand until last week when they reported a large outbreak of 200 cases on Denang. The health minister said it a much more infectious strain with R0 near 6.0 instead of the normal 1.8-2.2. They just removed 800,000 people in a effort to stop it. It has spread to Hanoi. Local authorities suspect a large number of Chinese in Denang who recently entered the county illegally could be the source. If it is a fast spreading strain, it could hit Thailand the same say. Reuters: Vietnam says origin of Danang outbreak hard to track as virus cases rise R0 of 6!!! Very serious : With 200 infections in Danang in 2 weeks then, 6^x=200. , x represents the number of generations or infection periods. Solving for x, (xlog6=log200) = 2.95. So in two weeks :14days/2.95 = 4.74 day generation/infection period. If you calculate for 6 weeks. 42days/4.74days = 8.86 generations Then 6^8.86 would be the number of infections in 6 weeks. This is just from the pure math only. But it shows how serious R0 6 could be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What ever they do in the country, speak Thai or not, married with Thai family or not, Thailand lover or not, save child in Thailand in the cave or not (i remember there were no Chinese in the cave).

Thailand seems to have little or no concerns over loosing its European tourists......so they will make an exception, somehow, for the Chinese. But why, oh why are you selling your souls to the Chinese....Who, in power, is receiving what for this never ending love affair? The ruling Thai class is same same Chinese in China. Key differences are superficial like language they speak and food they eat. Culture is same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
