In relation to the case of a Myanmar toddler reportedly picking up a Covid-19 infection in Thailand, Department of Disease Control (DDC) director general Dr Suwannachai Wattanayingcharoenhai said on Wednesday (September 16) that it was quite impossible when all facts are taken into account.

 

The two-year-old boy reportedly travelled out of Thailand with his mother via Mae Sot to Myawaddy on September 4 and was diagnosed with Covid-19 on Sunday (September 13). After the boy’s infection was announced, Myanmar put Myawaddy under lockdown. 

 

Suwannachai said immigration authorities had no report of the boy and his mother travelling out of Thailand via Mae Sot on September 4 and suspected that the two had taken a natural border route. 

 

The doctor also said a DDC team had visited Tak’s Mae Sot district on September 8 to 9 and conducted random Covid-19 tests on 2,635 people, both locals and Myanmar residents, and found no infections.

Are you ok Steven, it is not like you to disparage the fine nation and its PM who you follow blindly.....Now I am confused

How did I disparage the honorable Khun Prayut Chan O Cha,  I referred to the DDC director Dr Suwannachai Wattanayingcharoenhai's comment and assumption,  nothing more.

but you called your beloved Thailand "Lie Land", and that just says it all especially with Kuhn Prayut your friend at the helm.  I guess you need to redact the claim of Lie Land as it has to be fake news

sorry if you misunderstood my remark, it was purely representing the comments made by the DCC only, and yes .... Khun Prayut is at the helm and doing a fine job I might say.

Yep billions of baht to be obtained from 1200 tourists each month.....while the poor starve, and the military racks up more funds for purchases.  Way to run the country into the cliffs of Dover.

There must be a pretty big hole in those cliffs as the country has been run this way for a bloody long time.
