phetphet Posted July 1, 2021 Author Share Posted July 1, 2021 (edited) I'm nervous for when the Samui sandbox opens. I hope the authorities can get a lot more people vaccinated before then. OK. They won't have full immunity, but at least some protection. If this delta variant gets here, all bets are off. Vaccinated or not. Far more transmissible Edited July 1, 2021 by phetphet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timeline mentions no word of negative test but as she came back with Ferry she could get into Samui anyway (most cases we had in Samui in the last month came the same way). Seems to be a huge loophole in the Samui Covid protocol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So waits 3 days after onset of symptoms to get tested and drives all over the show while likely infectious. Then goes out while awaiting test result. Its people like this that let the whole system down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely that all of the school kids and their families will need to be tested? I have friends who are self isolating - they are three steps away from this lady but better to be safe than sorry.

Far more transmissible The latest results from Europe, where the delta-variant is spreading fast at the moment, especially in UK, is that even it's more transmissible, it's far less fatal than the previous variants. Furthermore the AZ vaccine seems to protects against the delta-variant; however Europe has no experience with Chinese Sinovac-vaccine. I'm not scared about vaccinated incoming negative-testing foreigners, I would be way more scared of domestic commuters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, 95% of Thais havent had a covid test and less than 5% have had two shots of a vaccine. The Thai population of circa 70 million represent much more of virus risk nationwide than the few hundred thousand resident or tourist westerners......... however Mr Xenophobia in charge prefers his own version of reality.

Best to look at India’s 3rd wave as the data from the UK is skewed by the fact most of the delta infections are in the younger population and the majority of the adults and high risk groups are fully vaccinated. As for the Chinese vaccines if you look at countries with high usage they are seeing evidence of large delta outbreaks in vaccinated population.

So was it the husband that brought it back to Samui? Would be nice to know his movements as well, and which school they attend. They might have tested negative, but if the mother mingled with anyone... Same as you, I had a friend call yesterday and cancelled coming to my house and plans to self isolate, as had been in contact with someone who had been near them. He had been at my house last Saturday 26th. I was only vaccinated on 29th. Not sure if I can get tested as will now have antibodies from vaccine? Anyone know if this affects test?

BarraMarra Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 What do you expect from this Government there happy pumping out the old " I have full trust in my prevention and pandemic ministers say PM " Then tells all construction workers I Thailand they will immediately be locked down because there spreading Covid ? by this simple act he has just spread covid to all provinces, because all the construction workers will have done a runner back to there provinces and took there infection with them because most will not have been tested let alone vaccinated.

No does not affect testing. They will be testing for the virus not antibodies if you have the correct PCR test done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My statement is based on conclusions yesterday, probably by qualified experts, not what I'm thinking. But this is then my speculation: I don't think you can compare India and transmission of virus with countries with just some level of precautions, Indian seems to be beyond control, whilst both Europe and Thailand actually are quite well controlled. The migrant worker exodus from Dark Red-zoned Bangkok in the recent news stories is not that different from the European football fan-exodus, which actually have caused experts Delta-variant alarm in today's news from Europe.

I beg to differ on many of the above comments. As previously started the expert opinions I have researched say the evidence is not conclusive. Making statements that delta is far less deadly without conclusive evidence may lull people into a false sense of security which in itself could prove to be deadly. And I would hardly say Thailand and Europe have the situation under control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, if you look at the timeline the symptoms came shortly after the second jab. Speaking of personal experience you would probably put these symptoms down as a reaction to the vaccination. Very similar and expected outcome under normal circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
