Perhaps you do not yet realise the social and psychological damage that these health protocols are doing on the quiet. 11 4 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a hotel, I would think it was an adjoining room with connecting door in the bedroom. Not ideal but better than total separation. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what you would let them roam around and infect others. Come on now. Be at least responsible and not foolish. You can not send them home to self quarantine.

Popular Post Bkk Brian Posted May 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) Lets face it, there's zero chance of stopping this coming in, they can take all the measures possible as they are quite rightly doing but it only takes one case to slip through and the damage is done. By the time they have sequenced the strain it'll already be spread in the community. Its an unfortunate fact. Just like the UK strain it will lead to more outbreaks. I fear it won't be too long before Thailand develops its own mutated strain. Solution? In my opinion there is none aside from the obvious, preventive measures and vaccines. If you reside in Thailand we're in for the long haul now. Edited May 11, 2021 by Bkk Brian 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Type: betacoronavirus Clade G Pango Lineage B.1.617.1 Collection date: 2021-04-26 Host: Human Additional location information: Travel history from Pakistan and detected on day 3rd after arrival in a state quarantine facility Gender: Female Patient age: 42 Submission Date: 2021-05-09 Submitter: Wacharapluesadee, Supaporn For those who like to dis Thailand, Supaporn Wacharapluesadee is Thailand's own batwoman. She was the first person to sequence the SARS-2-CoV virus outside of China from a patient on Jan 8, 2020. China had so far refused to release the genome and only did so on January 12, probably because of Supaporn's work.

I believe he was just expressing surprise that a 6 year old and an 8 year old would be isolated in their own room for two weeks by themselves without a parent or guardian, not suggesting that they skip quarantine. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
