I swear I’m cursed ! I’m in the uk in an area that has an outbreak of the South African strain , I’m due to leave in two weeks for Thailand, get locked in ASQ for 16 days and then was due to go to Mahasarakham !! ????????????

Doesn't sound like any of the infected are Burmese migrants. Nor Cambodians. Maha Sarakham is far from any border.

 

This cluster MUST have grown out of New Year travel. And now the junta wants to shoot us in the foot again, by encouraging Chinese New Year & likely Songkran travel.

 

My guess is a govt plot to keep three finger mobs off the streets.
