Will be nice to see the actual breakdown when it appears. Stay safe folks. They only reported the prison deaths because of the protester that was realeased. What else aren’t they telling us about? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That maybe the case,but that doesn't answer the question,either this is a daily increase from tests recently taken or they have been holding back on reporting the true number of infections taking place on a daily basis.It also appears the situation is worse than has been reported as some have been suggesting.

At the current rate, provincial hospitals will reach capacity in about 3 weeks, assuming no more beds are made available. What this means is that rumors about filled hospitals in the provinces should not be taken seriously at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anchadian Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Read more: https://www.hrw.org/news/2021/05/13/thailand-covid-19-outbreaks-prisons (New York) – People held in Thailand’s overcrowded prisons and detention facilities are at grave risk from Covid-19 outbreaks, Human Rights Watch said today. The Thai authorities should immediately act to ensure that prisoners and detainees have access to adequate protective measures and health care. The authorities should swiftly reduce overcrowding by releasing people who do not pose a serious and concrete risk to others. On May 12, 2021, Thailand’s Corrections Department announced that 1,795 inmates in Bangkok Remand Prison and 1,040 in Central Women’s Correctional Institution had tested positive for the virus that causes Covid-19. In addition, hundreds of people detained in provincial prisons such as in Chiang Mai and Narathiwat have reportedly tested positive for the novel coronavirus. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If provincial hospitals are 19 days away from being filled, as of today, then, by definition, they are not filled today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't mean the big rug was lifted and stuff that had been swept under it has escaped.....gasp, ack, ugh. Ugly is what it is as well as reprehensible.

Ergo if it's discussed that the hospitals are full it means, well to those of us who understand it, that the covid units are full. The rest of the hospital may not be but they can not take in more covid patients. Is that agreeable to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covid patients only ever go into covid wards, all hospitals have empty wards for patients...........................the term hospital full when referring to covid infections is pretty clear to everyone but not you it seems, no surprise there then. Fancy another prediction on this new peak? You were pretty adamant last time saying there would be no more.......it was over. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
