Interestingly, just heard from the wife, that the boy's school in On Nut will be closed tomorrow due to a couple of doses of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) found in his class. When asked how did they know whether it was not the SARS-CoV-2 virus, she was told that they do not have that particular virus in Thailand. 

 

I will be watching to see how many cases of RSV appear in the near future.

I am glad that the 5 most toxic countries were mentioned, and living next door to the

USA is frightening, as some of them want to come to Canada, sick or not.

  I think that Trump's lack of good policies will guarantee that a half a million of his

fellow American will die before this virus is under control in America. Good luck

Thailand, I hope that the numbers of Covid 19 virus remain low and a vaccine is

out soon for all to get.
