Popular Post snoop1130 Posted April 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2021 Image: Reuters file photo People aged under 30 help caused the spike in COVID-19 cases Thailand is currently experiencing. According to Department of Disease Control (DDC) chief Dr Opas Karnkawinpong, people aged between 20-29 who have active social lives and were in contact with lots of other people sparked the latest wave of infections. Dr Opas also said that increasingly members of entire families are becoming infected. Meanwhile, thansettakij.com reported the Ministry of Public Health has released details of best and worst case scenarios for the number of infections post Sonkran. The worst case scenario would see 9,140 infections per day if entertainment venues were allowed to remain open. This would fall to 2,996 infections per day if entertainment venues only closed in high risk provinces. The best case scenario would see just 391 new cases per day but in order to achieve this more restrictions would need to be put in place. These would include, closing entertainment venues nationwide, prohibiting private parties and group gatherings and making people work from home. Previously, the Ministry of Public Health warned that without any restrictions in place whatsoever, Thailand could experience as many as 28,000 new infections per day. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2021-04-15 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted April 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) Well don't that beat all. So let me get this straight, the 20 something crowd, impervious in their minds to covid, have been the ones to kick of this wave with the assistance of the Government who allowed the parties to go on at the clubs because Thais were immune and only foreigners could have Covid unless you were an older Thai and it was passed on by a migrant worker from a market area. Did I get that right? Tools and fools, they are the same ones shown in a video from Sakon Nakhon having a traditional Songkran splash and dance in violation of Governmental orders and will now be arrested and fined.

Popular Post internationalism Posted April 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2021 the transport minister is 59, some of his associates at krystal club were 75. the majority of cabinet is above 60. kids don't have a reason to lie about their whereabouts, they are single and mating is part of their growing up process. They don't get sick so their viral load is low (bar the DJ superspreader from the rooftop restaurant birthday party).

No, but it is not beyond the bounds of possibility that government ministers have, umh, informal association, with people under thirty years of age. Not that that has any bearing upon the origins of the current spike, as we all are fully aware that no Thai, particularly from those echelons of society, would be so reckless as to engage in such behaviour! 1 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SantiSuk Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Sisaket had 22 infections in this Jan-April wave as of last night - all in the last week. Before this wave it had less than a handful of infections since Jan 20. Of the 22 infections half are in the 20-29 age bracket. As best I can tell from their profiles none of them are government ministers and most of them went partying (mostly outside this province) and then returned to/came to this province just before or during Songkran. So I agree with the observations of the CDC guys in this instance. Have your fun with the lampoons of ministerial attendance at hi-so girly bars but as far as I can see it is the ordinary young joes going about their natural inclinations to party that are mostly causing this distressing scenario around the country. How distressing will depend on whether the inexplicably and remarkably low death rate continues or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or the Japanese Ambassador took it to the Krystal club as he stated he did visit there before he was diagnosed.

Dukeleto Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Whats the bet if it does get to the quoted figure of around 30,000 cases per day thats when they will declare Thailand is open and ready for international tourists without any restrictions. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes no sense? really, so you have not heard about the Military Officials visiting Myanmar along with the Cambodian Military officials, Russian Military Officials, Chinese Military Officials for the National Military Day parade which also was the start of the bombing in Myanmar. Yes it came across the border but this is a very possible avenue. So in your book it was impossible and makes no sense that the Cambodian Military Officials may have been carriers and infected the Thailand Military officials who brought it back and shared it unknowingly shortly thereafter. Add in the fact that Thailand's prominent doctor has indicated the strain arose from Cambodia by it's own genomic testing. So not a possibility in your book and you like Anutin believe that only dirty foreigners bring in the virus, Good to know and thanks. The Japanese Ambassador has tested and been confirmed and hospitalized with Covid just prior to the Krystal clubs cluster being found, and yes he has admitted to being there. Could be pure coincidence and he and staff picked it up there as well or it was brought in by them or someone who had contact with a Thail Military offical, maybe a minister. But no way in your book. We have heard of many police being infected from this cluster but nothing from anyone in the military as they deny anything just like when they denied the Naval Aircraft carrier personnel were infected from any off-duty partying.

I was going on the supposition that you believed it came across the border by an illegal immigrant, nothing more and so I expounded on my belief that is all, have a good day. I also stated it could have come from the Japanese Ambassador as well. Which meant it came from in the country.
