AndrewMciver Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Simple go watch these youtube videos. Guests who are meant to be in quarantine are chatting and socialising with hotel employers - especially during the 1 hour out door exercise they get. If the guest or the employer have the virus they will pass it on to each other. Just really bizarre and an obvious flaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elkski Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Very early on there were cases with longer than 14 day incubation. I think it was 21 days but this data used as a quarantine period would have given you naysayers a stroke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his incubation period was 28 days as it would seem without him being infected in Thailand then thats a game changer and one for the historical records. A true rare case without known causation 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now he has a positive, a month after arriving, yet he was infected abroad. Safe trusted Thailand? It was possible. One case out of thousands. I have no idea if Thailand has tested its reagents or where they obtained the reagents used in the tests. It is possible that the reagents were bad. it is also possible that the tests were not administered properly. The swabs used must be of a specific type of polyester on a metal tip. There may have been a defect in the swabs. In the early phase of Covid19 the reagents were a source of considerable concern. Much of it was sourced from China.

I wondered about that, but if there had been other positive cases on the same flight, wouldn't they have said so in the press conference? I gather they didn't or it would have been commented on. Also, I think most falang are in business class at the moment whereas most Thai nationals are in economy, so the chances are high that the people sitting near him would have had recent negative tests. Still possible of course but it would take something close to the perfect storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no evidence at all that someone can go for 14 days after exposure and not test positive. 16 days after release from quarantine he poses no danger to Thai people, he obviously had no contact with the DJ s mob, so no worries. These are my orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in a restaurant 2 weeks ago and a Thai guy came in to eat, he had a constant cough and seemd quite embarrased by it. All the staff and customers were looking at him very badly, almost venomously. All because of a cough. This plandemic has not changed anyone, has it? It was suggest by some that I be locked up for having hayfever,so yes this is the new normal where the jack booted nervous narrative nannies live in mortal fear of people spreading germs which is now a criminal offence in some countries that consider themselves civilised. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before leaving (except when you are Thai!) and when entering Thailand you are tested. When on entry you test positive, it is straight to the Hospital for you. And all those that tested negative, have to go through 14-days of quarantaine. The whole idea of quarantaine in a 'locked' Hotel (where you can mingle with other Hotel guests and staff during the exercise hour) is nonsense and the 'obvious flaw'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matzzon Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 On 9/12/2020 at 8:15 AM, Flying Saucage said: I have to disagree strongy Sheril! There are not hundreds of deaths in European countries now!!! This is simply wrong. For example Germany with 82 million people had between zero (!) and maximum ten deaths per day during the last weeks. Single digit numbers per day! To say hundreds new Covid deaths a day is no only vastly exagerated, it is simply not correct. Germany alone now does around 200,000 test per day. Europe, with around 8 times more people than Germany, might be in the millions per day. But I agree that Europe with more than 600 million people must not be compared with Thailand with its 67 million. But how many tests does Thailand daily, compared to Germany? And regarding random testing: Germany does random testing. In the Germany state of Bavaria, the have test booths at the motorways to test everyone who wants to be tested. Mainly for those coming back from holidays in Austria, Italy and Eastern Europe. I call this random testing. Also, it is this random testing that increases the positive tests strongly, because so many asymptomatic people are tested. Overall, I am sure that the Covid-situation in Thailand is not much different to well performing countries in Europe. It is naive to believe the official numbers in Thailand. Sorry, I am not that gullible to believe this government anything. Thailand performs well, sure. But neither better nor worse than European countries. And, whatever success Thailand has, this has not so much to do with the government. More with climatic and social circumstances here. With so many university degrees you say you have more than others, then you ought to know that you can not compare continents with countries. Just to make you aware. Europe is a continent, and Thailand is a country. ???? Let´s say like last week during one day it was: France: 70 deaths Turkey: 58 Spain: 78 So, there are high number, and I would say that Sheryl was not far from the truth. If you are German, yes then you can be happy. However, it´s just one country, you know. Not a continent even if they had aspiration for that 80 years ago.

At least you did not understand it obviously. Would you mind to read it carefully again? Also, maybe you heard already that there are some more countries in Europe, with significant lower daily deaths today than France and Spain. Like Italy, Austria, Switzerland, UK, Norway, Finland, and some more. But I would not necessarily assign Turkey for 100% to Europe. BTW, this kind of discussion is too stupid for me.

How did they get out of Suvarnabhumi airport with Covid? Did they get covid on arrival in Japan - in essence when were they tested? Secondly, how long was their trip to Thailand? Did you notice how many people arrived in Thailand with a "High Fever", suspected Covid, in the last 5 months? This was jammed into the TV news and Papers with alarming regularity. It included a group from New Zealand, before that latest outbreak during the three months or so New Zealand had no Covid. I assumed and still assume that this had more to do with News Media fakery and promoting the idea that the outer non thai world was seething with infectious virus. I still do as it makes no sense any other way. The question remains, how are all these people getting fevers on a plane as they would not be permitted to board if they had one at the departing airport? As for the Japan case, they were tested for Covid19, not just testing for fever. Could there be more Covid in Thailand than the government or media admits?! It looks that way.

In addition, PCR test cannot distinguish live/infectious virus from dead/broken fragments of virus. There are problems with the PCR test. This study from Singapore is older, but has relevance. https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/health/covid-19-patients-no-longer-infectious-11-days-after-getting-sick-research-shows 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was in January, when also in Europe nobody was expecting yet Covid cases to appear so quickly there. They all recovered well, and only later end of February when the virus slowly started to become diagnosed around the world, they were tested and Covid antibodies were found in the blood of all three of them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
