Scary! well it's supposed to be ???? 

Over 80 % of those people testing positive (due to very "dubious PCR tests") are not sick at all and 99% (at least) are at no risk whatsoever of death but we are all being subjected to increased Panic campaigns, you could suspect there is more to this "agenda" like a global reset maybe, but we know the decent Politicians that have been elected would never do this ????

Thankfully the population for the most part have been "dumbed" down and are no longer capable of questioning the narrative 

 

Thankfully the English language has been weaponized and those questioning the narrative can be made to look foolish by calling them "conspiracy theorist or "tin foil hat wearers"

Or, perhaps a better headline

Seven Thais among the 10 new Covid-19 cases found in state quarantine

[2 is 1]

Thais don't need covid test before entrance in and of course it's ok to come own coundry! But seems like dosen't matter even foreigners get that test before! Only extra sht!

[yellowboat]

At some stage, everyone will test positive, but not everyone will have symptoms. They go on and on about infection, but say nothing of health and the immune system.   Healthy, intelligent people are a threat to a feeble minded, military government.   

 

Drink 2-3 litres of water a day.  Drink some vegetable soup with onions, garlic and red peppers a few times a week.  Eat fruits.  Get some exercise.  Wash your hands after recycling all that water.

I would be interested to hear what reason the Russians had to be travelling here

Why are new cases in quarantine always framed using the lens of "foreign" infections.  Stoking racial fear with the locals?  What's the purpose?

[mark131v]

66% of new covid 19 cases in state quarantine are Thai, there fixed it by removing the excess xenophobia...

[unblocktheplanet]

Why are these foreigners allowed in, when many others with genuine ties to Thailand are not.

 

There has to be a backstory here. Medical tourism, not for Covid, travelling with infected carer--sheesh!

[chilli42]

Why is this news?  Who cares?  Stop trying to fuel the Covid fear.

Nice little earner for Thailand too considering incoming foreigners all need 100K USD insurance

 

Another reason to avoid the country till this insanity abates due to economic collapse

 

Especially when one considers most of these turn sick after 5+ days arrival meaning....(If Foreigners ) They had tested negative before boarding but,

Then were put on a closed environment plane with untested Thai's

Arrive & a week or more later are positive???

 

Thailand should be paying the medical bills if any...

Considering their illogical choice of mixing tested negative Foreigners with untested Thai Nationals

 

What in the world could the the Thai Governments reasoning be for allowing Thai's to fly test free?

If these Thai's can afford International travel they surely can provide a test before flight like everyone else
