The Minister of Public Health has pointed out daily COVID-19 infection rates have begun to stagnate and the situation should begin to normalize in 2-3 weeks

With the incubation period after Songkran that would mean most infections have manifested and people have gone for tests or treatment... but it doesn't mean it will be over.

[Paul Knight]

From a man that allowed the population to travel unrestricted across the nation, fuelling the outbreak.His comments are so hypocritical that like other statements he makes, he shows himself to be out of touch with Reality. 

[animatic]

So much of so little substance to unpack here.

 

Buriram muppet speaks, and we should not auto-gafaw at each gaffe. Because the situation is serious, even if he doesn’t quite get it.

 

Chinese version not good, let’s go with the Russians.... quality control at national standards. Abysmal.

 

Real Vax suppliers won’t give a back hander to make the sale? 
Let’s go with herbal remedies. Even if the death roles are expanding, give them cheap stuff from the jungle. Yeah, yeah, that’s the ticket.

 

Same day different phrasing of the same old effluence.

We shall see on this one. Maybe he's right.

This is Anutin - he's never right.  How is the situation 'normalising'?  Each succeeding day (for at least the last week) record numbers of cases are being recorded + increased numbers of deaths.

 

'all patients who received 180 mg. of Creat daily saw an improvement in their condition' - all patients in this exhaustive test numbered SIX!

A round about way of saying now we will test and quarantine diplomates and there wives before we entertain them at hiso bars in Bangkok. Apparently a third of the cabinet tested positive from the "Thong Lor" outbreak. I bet they aren't in field hospitals.

Is this not the same guy who told us in March 2020 that the wind would blow away Covid by Songkran 2020 ?

But he has a crystal ball and "see's" it being over in 2 to 3 weeks.  He is after all a clairvoyant.

[tomazbodner]

 

Maybe, but there's some time until that 2 weeks are over, and numbers are on the way up. As of 7 am today.

Here is what the next round will bring

More chance of catching a tenner in a hurricane than that happening .. 

Not sure why you say this. It has already normalised. Just look at daily infections. About the same everyday. ????

jokes aside, this is what they'll actually do

They have already started to reduce test results.

Its the reason the positive cases have dropped and stagnated at about 1500 per Day.

What the people really want to hear from this pretend doctor, is when, and if, they will get a safe Vaccine Jab

Nobody has the least bit of interest in some Witch Doctor Brew that is available.

After all... If its that good, why has the entire World not been using it, and Thailand Marketing it. Or has that been another missed opportunity

[Olad Mate]

Normal....

Now there is a word that means absolutely F...... all here.

Yes, It jogged my memory when you mentioned about the wind blowing it away.

I did a quick search, but couldn't find the prophecy.

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Health Anutin Chanvirakul, speaking at a ceremony to provide 600,000 Creat capsules to hospitals, stated that the herbal remedy is part of a national registry of treatments made known to hospitals, which are able to prescribe the herb as an alternative remedy for those with COVID-19, noting data will be collected on its use to verify common perceptions of its efficacy.

 

Herbal remedy???

This is Synthetic

Very clever from a Health Minister

He assured Thais that the situation is under control and is progressing as expected by relevant committees, with all sides contributing to control of the virus, and public health systems operating effectively.

 

In an unreported statement, Khun Anutin also announced that the current outbreak is being dealt with so efficiently that the start-date for quarantine-free travel to Phuket by foreigners would be brought forward to June 1st, and the sandbox scheme would now also include Chiang Mai and Pattaya from that date. The requirement for foreigners to have been vaccinated will be dropped, as hardly anybody in Thailand will have been this year. He also mentioned that TAT now expects foreign arrivals this year to exceed 30 million.

Does that mean he floats on water?

[shackleton]

He is living more in hope than in judgement 

And no doubt will be wrong again

Need to get the vaccine program up and running faster get the Country vaccinated 

[Benmart]

His credibility evaporated long ago.

[EricTh]

Thailand has trouble providing beds when the figures are low 1000+ daily new cases, what happens when the figures reach 2000+?
