ukrules Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 How many days into the quarantine period is he? Why no more details? When will 10 day quarantines begin? ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post don43451 Posted November 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2020 Did you notice that all of the reported cases had no symptoms? That leads me to believe that they either had very recently contracted the disease (possibly on the flight to BKK) and were not yet showing symptoms, they are one of the millions of people that are just asymptomatic, or it was a false positive test result.

That would not be good for the new tourist plans from Thailand to bring that out..., how many days in quarantines..... as now they like to please the Chinese with just reducing to 10 day's ????

Popular Post Tropicalevo Posted November 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 8, 2020 Well, the case in Krabi is an Indian and he is a domestic case. He lives in Thailand and has not been anywhere. So where did he catch the virus and who from? The newspapers or the government are being very frugal with the details. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldie Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Very strange - people arrive from high risk countries and even have Corona. Must be fake news. There can't be any other explanation. We all know that so far only 33 Chinese arrived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tchooptip Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 He was admitted to a private hospital. No other choice, private hospital. Three years ago I had a tachycardia in the middle of the night, to be on the safe side I went to the nearest private hospital, in Samui at 6 a.m. everything was back to normal, but they kept me in ICU until four in the afternoon, as there is no permanent cardiologist, but only two days a week coming from Bangkok, I returned to consult him a few days later. He read the report, and exclaimed but why they kept you in ICU for the day? In the morning everything was perfect they should have let you go home, the only goal was to take 40,000 baht from you, I swear he said that, adding, I don't like the way they work here, I wanted to give you an ultrasound of the heart, so I'll see what it looks like but I won't mention it and so you won't pay for it as a compensation has he added smiling. By the way he said after but you have a heart of a young man. So some private hospital thank you, I know some other private hospitals where the prices are at least "honest" for us Westerners but not all of them I did not mention any name because who knows with the laws in this country, As far as I know there are 4 private hospitals in Samui ant a country's hospital in Nathon but the oldies in Samui will easily guess the name of the over-expensive one ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote According to Thai media, which quoted Dr Supoj Pookaoluan, director of Krabi Hospital, the man arrived in Thailand three months ago and has since been unable to return home.

Sheryl Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 The Dutch man was in ASQ when he tested positive, he arrived here on the 1st. The Indian man had been here for 3 months and was asymptomatic, tested positive on a routine test for a work permit. However in BP today there is some confusing mention of a third test being negative. So situation still rather unclear, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SO still some doubt as to whether he has active virus or not. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would they get someone to samui from Bkk ? They going to drive them all the way there or give them a flight all to themselves? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
