snoop1130 Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 CHIANG MAI, May 17 (TNA) – The biggest cluster of inmates with COVID-19 is at the Chang Mai Central Prison in the northern province where as many as 3,929 inmates had the disease. Local authorities including Chiang Mai governor Charoenrit Sa-nguansat and Maj Gen Thanatpol Kosaisewi, deputy commander of the Third Army, confirmed the figures while insisting that the situation was under control despite the high number of infections at the prison thanks to systematic and efficient medical services. Maj Gen Thantpol said that in the worst-case scenario, 2,500 other inmates were at-risk people and could be all infected.

I see the collective noun for prisoners must be a 'cluster'. 'as many as 3,929' It makes you wonder if they pick a random number to make it seem more realistic? Or perhaps it was accurately counted. Real life is more surprising: The height of Mount Everest was calculated to be exactly 29,000 ft high, but was publicly declared to be 29,002 ft in order to avoid the impression that an exact height of 29,000 feet was nothing more than a rounded estimate. Waugh is therefore wittily credited with being "the first person to put two feet on top of Mount Everest". source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Scott_Waugh#Surveyor_General 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 COVID has been in Thailand for a year, and are we supposed to be surprised that prisoners in the jails have not been infected by COVID until now. Well PM and Thai government and jail warden and staff, you all dropped the ball. What are you going to do now? Oh yeah, you could maybe now, think of vaccines for all those who work and live in the prisons. Forward thinking. right! Geezer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prison staff will get infected and spread it outside the prison. Too late to quarantine them, I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
