Spilornis Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Does Thailand report its ICU rate. That's one of the critical measures. In Malaysia the daily figures often top 2000 (yesterday 2525) but the ICU and intubation rates remain relatively under control at 130 and 60 respectively. Mind you these numbers have been creeping up each day and often the reason for the numbers decreasing is death (8 yesterday). I suspect both Malaysia and Thailand will survive okay until the vaccines arrive but it could be a close shave. Stay safe everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhatsNext Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 35 minutes ago, beano2274 said: looking at the deaths in Thailand there were 7884 deaths last year (2020) You are confusing things, the 7884 is the death RATE per million : The number of deaths per year is 551.880. You are of by a factor of 70.. Which is on the low side actually as Thailand still has a relatively young population with the massive number of people under 60. The death rate is going to go up in the coming 10 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they'll call 911 on anyone who starts talking about vaccines or immunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is Thailand compared to Taiwan. Oddly, they stopped updating as soon as Samut Shakon started, maybe from overload. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arick Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 The need to start testing the people passing away to find out the real extent of the spread. Health working coming and taking temperatures of people visiting from Bangkok is doing nothing if they have already been in the grandparents home for 15 mins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
