webfact Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 BANGKOK, April 9 (TNA) - A renowned virologist assumed the British variant of COVID-19 in Thailand might come from Cambodia where the strain had spread. Prof Dr Yong Poovorawan, head of the Center of Excellence in Clinical Virology at Chulalongkorn University, wrote on his Facebook page that the British variant known as B.1.1.7 had spread widely in Cambodia since Feb 20 and on March 19 about 1,500 people had the variant in Cambodia.

Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted April 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 9, 2021 Wait, there are infections in Cambodia. I was told there were minimal cases there, and even one member here on TV who lives there indicated it was under control and there had never been a true outbreak. Maybe I am being facetious, but why lay the blame on anyone country. The fact is it is here and needs to be dealt with. They worry to much about where something came from instead of getting ahead of the issue and stopping mass travel which will just assist in the spread of the virus. I wish everyone a safe Songkran, drive carefully, and keep social distancing and sanitizing. Today there are being reported 559 new cases of Covid. Just watching the news now. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millions of migrant workers are mooving in all directions all the time. the superspreader is krystal club in thonglor, so they were employing khmer prostitutes or orher staff. so many government officials were regulars there, thai this place it's called the government 2. Indeed, the transport minister don't want to reveal, where he was on 27-28.3.

lkv Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) Not to worry. Sinovac has an efficacy rate of just over 50% for 2 doses, and 3% (yes), for the first dose only. https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3128886/chile-covid-19-vaccination-drive-adds-sinovac-efficacy-data Maybe Astra Zeneca will save Thailand. Europe might shortly start donating, we have plenty of supply and no demand in the EU. Edited April 9, 2021 by lkv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That still doesn't explain how it got into Thailand... unless it follows a similar pattern of how Myanmarese workers managed to cross the border and make their way to Samut Sakhon area undetected? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to be blunt but....WHO CARES??? I mean really who cares? Covid in all its forms is in Thailand as it is the rest of the world. Thailand as usual concentrates more on blame etc than reaction to the problem I don't recall all this questioning when Covid first came out...guess what? Bet it came from China....Who Cares? Who is to say the UK Covid is not just covid as a mutated teenager & all countries will see it or already do? What will happen when the raging adult version/mutation of covid rears its head? You know it likely will as they say this virus mutates quickly & perhaps is a reaction to who knows what Point is stop all the stupid fake investigations & instead do what you should have been doing all year...

webfact Posted April 11, 2021 Author Share Posted April 11, 2021 Latest Covid-19 Wave in Thailand Is Related to Cambodia Strain By Subhabhong Rarueysong BANGKOK (NNT) - The strain of Covid-19 found in Thailand among visitors to entertainment venues in Bangkok has the spike pattern that matches perfectly with the Cambodia strain. Chulalongkorn University virology specialist Dr Yong Poovorawan said on Saturday that the latest strain does not match 100 per cent with the British or other strains, but displays a 100 per cent match with the Cambodia strain. The Cambodia strain had been found spreading in Cambodia about six weeks before it was detected in Thailand. From this data, it is conclusive that the latest wave at entertainment venues is related to the Cambodia strain of the virus. He said it was unlikely that the strain had been brought in by people coming via official channels because everybody is tested and quarantined for 14 days, but it could be from migrant workers or Thais sneaking across the border who may have been carriers of this strain, which is 1.7 times more infectious. -- © Copyright NNT 2021-04-12 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
