Invest money in vaccines and forget about tourism until Covid under control Totally agree the priority for giving out the vaccine should start with the ill old and health workers Giving to people in the Tourist industry first beggers belief All people in Thailand first then they can open up the country to Tourism 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runamok27 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 This isn't really that big of a problem. Hospitals don't have hundreds of ICU beds waiting for sick people. Most hospitals have very few ICU beds even in developed, rich countries, so it is not surprising that ICU beds would run low so quickly. It is a terrible barometer for the extent of the problem, so I really don't understand why they use it like it tells us anything. The fact of the matter is that the vast, vast majority of folks who end up in ICU because of COVID die, very few of them recover, so running out of ICU beds probably doesn't have much effect on the number of deaths because those folks were going to die anyways, ICU or not.

Popular Post Guderian Posted April 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2021 Blame the incompetent government that allowed Songkran travel to go ahead with no restrictions. If they'd imposed a nationwide travel ban two weeks ago this outbreak would probably be petering out by now. Instead, who knows what's going to happen.

KOZMO Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 15 hours ago, Blumpie said: And this is the problem. Hospitals can only deal with COVID, nothing or little else. Look at India - they have no oxygen. Of course that's a significantly poor third world country with a notoriously poor standard of life, where the poor simply never go to a doctor in their lives. Kids get sick? Oh well, have more kids. No doctor, no treatments. So what ends up in a place like Thailand is surgeries get delayed, people suffer, and it ends up being a big big problem. We are currently dealing with a huge backlog in surgeries with people genuinely suffering day after day here and it's really sad. I do hope that they can fare well - they have great doctors in Thailand! The have great Doctors in Thailand??? Went to Bangkok Hospital in Korat for a tear in my rotator cuff. Saw a specialst and told him i needed a shot for my pain. he gave me Celebrex, 400mg. I gave him a copy of all my meds. asked, any interaction. He said no. Went home and almost took the medication. pulled out my computer and checked, Web MD for Interactions. Had i taken the med would of had a stroke or heart attack. Called my Cardiologist in America. He said go back and ask the doctor if he knew how to check interactions. Next day went back and got a cortizone shot plus an Apology. It would have taken just 1 or 2 pills to kill me !!! Great Doctors??? A Specialist too !!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example have you had a procedure here and in the States? Like a colonoscopy? In the States you clean yourself out at home and come to the hospital ready to go. Here, you do the cleansing process under the watchful eyes of the hospital staff at the hospital. They do not trust the general Thai population ( from past experience I was told) to do it. So how can they expect to change when it comes to quarntining? No. Here in Thailand many procedures are carried out at home including the pre colonospocy procedure. If you fail to do it properly the colonospocy can not proceed until, at the hospital, enemas are used to finish the cleaning process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before cabinet members They (and that should be in every country) should have put the cabinet members at the end of the line. It is the only way for them to be motivated to get every one a shot as only then they can get their own vaccination. Just as cabinet members should have no access to private healthcare: they get exactly what the worst of people in the country get, same as schooling for their kids. You want better for yourself and your kids? Go fix it for everybody else first, then you also get it! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually no soap in the toilet area. I guess better than Laos though, the hiso Laos used to come here for treatment (private hospitals). Very scary.
