When I hear of the Thais who come back to Thailand, and test positive, I wonder 

just how good is the air filters and scrubbers on the air planes? Maybe even the hepa 

filters do not get enough of the virus. It seems that a lot of these people get back and

then test positive, scary. I hope that this latest bunch of Thais are healthy.

Curious how much the government pays per flight, or per passenger?  I'm sure they are trying to subsidize THAI through these flights.  I'm also curious if and when all of the past freebies and handouts will come forth from decades of underhanded payments.  There needs to be real accounting now, although I suspect many records can no longer be found.
