Popular Post rooster59 Posted January 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2021 PM assures the COVID-19 outbreak in Thailand is at “acceptable levels” Prime minister Prayut Chan-o-cha said the COVID-19 outbreak in Thailand, the availability of the field hospital beds and the government’s disease control measures are all still in acceptable levels. Prayut said the quantity of new cases being discovered each day seems high because the country is conducting mass screening, to bring infected people into the system, in order to contain the outbreak. He said the government has been following the situation very closely, day by day. The measures are discussed on a monthly basis, or more frequently if needed.

internationalism Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) the thing is - burmese are still coming, to take advantage of legalising their stay in thailand. the government estimate some 100k coming with this purpose. They are aware, but unable to do much - the green border crossings can't be stopped, and still immigration officials do take bribes for stamping in. with about 10% of them being infected it would bring to thailand 10k cases. so it might be not all rosy within the next month. those burmese won't be coming to samut sakhon anymore, as area is closed. They would be coming to the other coastal provinces in the gulf, which are even closer to birma border. thai employers, which are partly mafia establishments, "employing" slaves, would take care of human trafficking and giving them work in the other portal towns. They will shift their operations from samut sakhon, where the central government is controlling situation tightly.

Try mass testing in Bangkok, especially the western areas bordering Samut Sakhon, and see how many cases you can "bring into the system". 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikke1959 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 acceptable levels?? where?? in Samut Sakhon everyday around 800 because of al of testing a special group.. How about some mass testing in another province to know if it are ONLY this specific group of habitants ?? Than we are able to speak of acceptable levels or not an act to it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Drake Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I wonder how many people in the upper reaches of Thai society have already managed to get themselves vaccinated. The urgency here seems a lot less than it was last spring, when everyone was in the same boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natway09 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 If they are at "acceptable" levels why can I not have a quiet drink in my local Bar in Bangkok where I am joined by a few others from the local area only.. It is not the expat bars that will spread the virus it is the "Hi Sos" still insist on parties & travelling around the country as if nothing has happened. Isolation into areas with some stringent no go rules is the only chance of "isolation" but I see that the road block checks have been done away with so the Myanmar people can also travel wherever they wish now with impunity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sambum Posted January 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) "Prayut said the quantity of new cases being discovered each day seems high because the country is conducting mass screening" And so the penny finally drops! P.S. But as another poster has pointed out, the "mass screening" is not countrywide as Prayut claims, but only in the areas where there are "spikes" Edited January 30, 2021 by sambum 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
