Doctor Yong has stated publicly that he thinks it's likely the footballer was infected in his home country 28-30 days before being found infected on the 8th Sep.He was tested negative before leaving his home country.If that is the cases he would be 1 case in 28.5 million that has an incubation period that long.So he is effectively saying it's likely that he was infected in his home country at the same time saying it would be "very rare" I would think 1 in 28.5 million is very rare and unsubstantiated.Sounds like he might be back peddling a bit.He might well know a lot but not "immune" to the odd slip up or being caught out trying to spin this infection off to a foreign country. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all Thai people have the ability to read English and gain the vast combined expert knowledge that we all are so fortunate to have here on TV ......... After all, TV is the hub of all knowledge, right?...... ???? I also would have thought the reason his post is shown here is just to drive more clicks to TV ...... Something which it has succeeded to do ... By us all commenting .... it a win win ... We get something to do .... TV gets more click ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at the last table on this link: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/coronavirus-incubation-period/ (There you will find that it stands both 2-14 days as well as 0-24 days.

I'm talking about the footballer who arrived in Thailand on 13th Aug possibly left on the 12th Aug would have got his results on the 11th Aug and tested on 9-10th Aug,the test was negative.He tested positive on the 8th Sep which is about 28-30 days from the initial negative test.I'll settle for 28 days which is considerably longer than 20 days.I don't know why the good Doctor is talking about 21 days when the footballer he was referring to went about 28 days from a negative test to a positive test other than trying to dig himself out of the hole he has got himself in. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Look, this is silly. Infection with more than 14 day incubation is unusual but it happens, it is possible. It is also possible he got infected after leaving quarantine. None of us knows which. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JusticeGB Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 If he likely tested before he came that would be around the 9th of August and then he was tested more than 30 days later well beyond the maximum incubation period. As Thailand wants to keep its covid19 free reputation the footballer must have been infected before he came to Thailand. It seems strange that the only people who have been compulsorly tested, namely a prisoner and a footballer have been the only people in Thailand found with covid19. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naturesway Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Unfortunately in Thailand the majority of people are naive and gullible enough to believe in this covid-19 Business going around the while at the other parts of the world the people are getting their realizations and rising up against this media fooling. These and the similar types of flues have been always here but this time they named it and have a plan with it for some reasons. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
