Thai prisons are the hot topic at the moment with more than 10,000 infections of Covid-19 being reported in at least 15 prisons nationwide. In Chiang Mai 60% of inmates were found to be infected. But not in Pattaya. Manop said that there was not a single case of Covid in his prison. He said that activities had been cancelled temporarily and there was a strict 21 day quarantine arrangement for prisoners who had to leave and return to the facility. The local health department had advised on arrangements in the prison where strict social distancing was in place. Visits with relatives are on hold at the moment. But Manop said that relatives could contact inmates online utilising smart phones supplied by the prison for inmates to use. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2021-05-19 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cclub75 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Ah ! The "Zero Covid" cult. An obsession. Virtue signalling from subordinates... Irrational fear... And the hubris of "control"... At the end : failure. Always. They should all read The Masque of the Red Death, from Edgar Allan Poe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah ok then, did you actually do a good number of tests before stating that or are those measures you implemented adequate enough for you to be so confident, I do wonder.
