When I see Europe and the US I see how lucky we all are to be here. "ALL" (lucky)? Have you asked the 1 million plus unemployed in the now defunct tourist industry and with little support how "lucky " they feel ? 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LarryLEB Posted November 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2020 13,997 tests in Thailand as of yesterday out of a population of just under 70 million. No wonder there are so few reported cases here. On a per capita basis, that puts Thailand at number 156 out of 198 countries and territories that have reported test numbers.

Popular Post AlfonsV Posted November 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2020 Such a BS! I learned from the beginning of the pandemic that the WHO is opportunistic and corrupt. To count Indonesia among the best is plain ridiculous. Whereas not to mention New Zealand, Taiwan and Uruguay is an incredible misinformation. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your figure is the number of tests per 100k population and if you sort the columns correctly it shows Thailand at position 165 for tests/100k 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recom273 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Alongside Indonesia - that’s nothing to be proud of, is it? Another case of no testing brings low results .. even tho’ there’s a massive population they have hundreds of thousands of deaths if I recall.

cheapcanuck Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 7 hours ago, rooster59 said: WHO picks Thailand among 4 countries as example of effective Covid-19 handling By THE NATION Anutin Charnvirakul The World Health Organisation (WHO) has picked Thailand among four countries who have demonstrated efficient management of the Covid-19 outbreak to share their experiences and policies with other countries via video conference, Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said on Friday. “Thailand, Indonesia, South Africa and Uzbekistan were selected by WHO as countries that had successfully handled the Covid-19 situation using public health measures such as aggressive testing, contact tracing, patient investigation and intensive quarantine,” he said. “In the case of Thailand, we also have received positive cooperation from the public in following public health measures. This resulted in Thailand having a relatively low number of domestic cases, while most of the infections have come from overseas.” Anutin added that Thailand has been strictly following WHO’s Guidance for Conducting a Country Covid-19 Intra-Action Review (IAR), which was developed to guide countries to conduct periodic review of their national and subnational Covid-19 response, so countries do not miss critical opportunities for learning and improvement to better respond to the Covid-19 outbreak in their countries. “The IAR that we performed on July 20-24 revealed that Thailand’s success in handling Covid-19 derived from the government’s decisive policies based on a strong public health foundation, as well as cooperation from all sectors that helped minimise the spread of Covid-19 in Thailand,” said Anutin.

vangrop Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 if you test in a minimalist way and if you dont test casualities of the elderly in the retired and poor areas for financial reasons, yeah of course you are scoring the best. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post my friend you Posted November 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2020 What type of testing is done? PCR Test I assume, which doesn't prove an infection. This test is a fraud. Infection can only be proven by antigen test. Use google if you want to know details. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caldera Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 That's a strange list of countries, especially when you compare official numbers in Thailand with those in Indonesia.

Due to the economic shutdown, 8000 children extra die every day from starvation. The economic shutdown will kill many more people, than it will "save" from the covid death. Also, those who die from covid are nearly always older people, who already lived a long life and would, in many cases, have died within a relatively short period of time, anyway, whereas the children and younger people that die from starvation, have the whole life ahead of them. And this is about the deaths. On top of this, there will be those hundreds of millions that are sinking down in extreme poverty (but surviving), all those, who lose their businesses, their jobs, and a million other things. Either the WHO is stupid, brutal, insane - or all of it at once! I need to vomit now, sorry ???? ,Pretty much how it is around the world , severe destruction well.beyond the " Killer Virus " 55555 yeah right . It's a VIRUS , and it's here as it is everywhere else , what is " Simplistic " is those who think it's not here , it is , I assure you . Difference is , no idiotic , no reason testing , acceptance of the flu as still being a thing , great immune of the Thai people , and acceptance . ITS A VIRUS , YOU NEED AN IMMUNE , you need to be generally healthy , and that's most Thai people . Far Far more destruction , well outside of any virus .
