The article also mentions they did 100,000 tests. I wonder if that is since the seafood market outbreak, because if so it's an extremely small amount of tests each day.

This appears just like the first mini wave we had. The numbers can not be right, or are they not including all again. If they are indeed effectively contact tracing, testing and isolating, then we would not expect exponential growth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you track and trace when the floodgates were opened and travel allowed outwards for the holidays to the provinces. The answer is you can't and they know it is futile.

dinsdale Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Victoria, Australia with a population of 6.359 million have conducted over 3,000,000 tests since this started. Once again Thailand is not mass testing so these numbers are rubbish. They are only getting these numbers from presentations and tracing from there, apart from the Burmese in Samut Sakhon and that might only be amphur muang but i'm not sure. It is a snapshot. Samut Sakhon which was locked down until the 4th is now locked down until the 15th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UK didn't lock down until Covid had really taken hold and ended the lockdown too soon. "2000 people at a football match, many not wearing masks and Covid's in town.

berton Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 4 hours ago, Mango Bob said: I don't care how many times the PM heard this. You could have had a vaccine by now and nothing has been done. To me this is dereliction of duty. A vaccine now would have the country fully open in less then a year. But to keep hoping cases go down on their own is not going to work. I think Thailand needs new leadership even starting vaccine now : it will not stop 2nd wave . Cannot vaccine 67 millions people in 1 week . What about UK,France, same number of people? the wave is maximum in UK and close with 1/2 confinement in FR ...and How about USA: 4000 dead people yesterday... There are many problems with the different kind of vaccin that many governements are not ready to use AND many people who dont believe in...it's a long debate, isn't it? so don't be so strict for one country which is not yours ! Also what do you say about : TH needs new leadership? what do you know about what PM did for HIS country since he is PM? Thai people have chosen a man with no corruption , not political, thats why they love Him. So let them chose and be welcome if you come here ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably go down over the next days and then the government will say "look our measures implemented worked", exactly what happened in march/April. Miracle reduction after 3-4 days of lockdown.
