Popular Post TallGuyJohninBKK Posted April 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 19, 2021 Better results overall today compared to the 1,767 new cases reported Sunday, despite the three new deaths reported today, with only two provinces, Bangkok and Chiang Mai, reporting more than 100 new cases (yesterday's numbers in parentheses for comparison): Bangkok -- 293 (down from 347) Chiang Mai -- 197 (up from 164) Selected Other provinces: Chonburi -- 98 (down from 229) Samut Prakan -- 82 (up from 64) Surat Thani -- 42 -- (up from 38) Ayutthaya -- 42 (up from 7) Nonthaburi -- 39 (down from 100) Nakhon Pathom -- 38 (up from 26) Nakhon Ratchasima -- 35 (down from 51) Petchburi -- 35 (up from 23) Samut Sakhon -- 32 (up from 18) Songkhla -- 32 (up from 25) Prachuap Khiri Khan -- 23 (down from 66) Udon Thani -- 23 (up from 15) Rayong -- 19 (down from 35) Phuket -- 18 (down from 25) Khon Kaen -- 20 (up from 9) Chiang Rai -- 17 (unchanged 17) The dropoff in new cases reported Monday may have been influenced by Sunday being the last day of the long Song Kran holidays weekend. However, a government spokesman expressed optimism that the recent control measures/restrictions imposed by the government will lead to "a better situation" in the coming weeks. The new COVID cases total the government reported Monday was the lowest daily total in the past five days. https://www.facebook.com/thaimoph/posts/290630379213539 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is if they have enough test solution ect. Though I hope this will go on going down. But i doubt it to be honest. 7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted April 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 19, 2021 It would really be nice to see when these cases were actually tested for, and the time frame from the date of the test to the date of clearing the lab as being reported positive. Rode by Bumrungrad hospital on my way home from MTT this morning, and it appeared they were already queued up en-mass for covid testing with security guards directing people on where to go, and this was around 9 am. I understand because of Songkran that many may not have been tested, or those tests have not been resolved in a quick turnaround due to lab techs being on holiday, but I sure hope they are jumping on those today and this week to ensure and calm the publics fears that they are doing everything they can. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the upcoming week will be interesting with hospitals and test facilities back up to 100% and people back from Songkran. I was actually surprised by the jump during songkran given the limited people home and more limited health care and testing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TallGuyJohninBKK Posted April 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) A government spokesman provided some details on the three new fatalities: --a 56-year-old male waiter who worked at a Bangkok entertainment venue who had traveled to Buriram and died with COVID and heart failure. --an 84-year-old Bangkok woman with a range of serious pre-existing conditions. --a 61-year-old woman who worked as a trader in Prachuap Khiri Khan who had the pre-existing condition of diabetes. The spokesman said that while younger, working age people are making up the bulk of the total COVID cases, the fatalities thus far are falling predominantly on the older patients, including those with pre-existing conditions.

Popular Post TallGuyJohninBKK Posted April 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 19, 2021 Once again on Monday, the MoPH briefing appeared to provide little to no information on the extent of current hospital bed availability, or on what portion of the 14,851 people the government reported being hospitalized as COVID positive have serious symptoms vs. having little to no symptoms. The government had provided daily updates on the latter info until this past weekend. However, last night, the Ministry of Public Health did provide a list with a patient breakdown at just 15 or so hospital facilities run by the government's Department of Medical Services that did provide such condition breakdowns on a group of about 500 patients in those hospitals on Saturday and Sunday, as follows: (Note, the info below is just a very narrow slice of Thailand's COVID positive population that's been hospitalized. The charts below don't include any private hospital data or data from many other government/public hospital facilities). But it is the only publicly released breakdown of its kind that I've seen thus far. Also note, I edited the first chart below to add English translations where needed and provide the percentage breakdowns, for clarity purposes, since we are an English language forum.

TallGuyJohninBKK Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) Latest day's COVID vaccinations reports, first cumulative, and then the latest day's additions. The subtotals reflect the portion receiving their first shot vs those receiving their second shot. Negligible progress over the Song Kran weekend. Not sure why there's a small different in the total vaccinations figure between the two different charts. https://www.facebook.com/prbangkok/posts/3413528185413445 Edited April 19, 2021 by TallGuyJohninBKK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
