snoop1130 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 CHIANG MAI (NNT) - Authorities have implemented a ’bubble and seal’ measure to help limit the spread of COVID-19 at Chiang Mai Central Prison in Chiang Mai province. The facility has now achieved herd immunity, with 95 percent of the inmates now immune to the virus. The Department of Corrections is to supervise the prison as usual. Governor of Chiang Mai, Charoenrit Sanguansat, thanked all sides for their support in terms of medical equipment, personnel and other assistance. He also expressed gratitude to His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn Phra Vajiraklaochaoyuhua, who bestowed medical equipment under the Happiness Corrections project on Chiang Mai Central Prison, to stem the spread of COVID-19 in the facility and to prevent the disease from spreading to nearby communities. Thanks to the establishment of a field hospital inside Chiang Mai Central Prison and efforts to treat patients using green chiretta and favipiravir, 95 percent of the inmates are now immune to COVID-19. Some 6,000 inmates received moral support and thanked all involved for their aid. Mae Taeng District Chief, Atthawut Phuengniam, said today that Mae Taeng district of Chiang Mai has carried out disease-control measures by quarantining inmates who have just been released, to prevent an outbreak in their communities. Currently, the quarantine facility is accommodating six individuals who are newly discharged from the prison. The people who have just been released are cooperating well and following disease-control measures, to prevent the spread of COVID-19 to other areas. -- © Copyright NNT 2021-05-31 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such nonsense. None of the products has been shown effective to treat patients, and certainly does not prevent infection. I doubt that they tested these inmates or vaccinated them with a proven effective vaccine. Do they have no sense of shame?

ikke1959 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Do they know what herd immunity is??? Or are just the inmates cured of mild covid infection?? Because we read nothing about vaccines only of medication for lung infections 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomazbodner Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 They probably mean that 70%+ got infected already. That does not equate herd immunity though, as reinfections clearly show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Petey11 Posted May 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2021 You can still get reinfected, especially if your protection is just from having caught it before. To seal all the inmates off and just let the virus run riot must be against human rights law somewhere. What if any have died from covid-19? The sort of tactics you expect from somewhere like China or North Korea??? Oh, hang on a minute? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCC1701A Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 tremendous opportunity to study the effects of the virus in a controlled environment. the BTS has too many variables. the data to be forwarded to the lab in Wuhan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danderman123 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 To be clear, 95% of the prisoners caught Covid, per the release. So, case numbers for the prison were 95% of 6,000 inmates. I wonder if these numbers were ever reported nationally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't know the CDC, or anyone working for it. If COVID is as serious as suggested by the media (including ThaiVISA). How come nobody on this forum knows anyone who has had it? (Why is always a story about a friend or relative in a distant country that gets posted?) How come nobody on this forum has had COVID (except for me, but I didn't have the test, so I couldn't have had it either)? How come none of us are suffering from long-COVID, or been hospitalised with COVID, or caught COVID twice? Why do the old guys frightened of death need to post random links just as you have done? Which avoid any answering of the posted question ....... why haven't we all had COVID? As for the prisoners with COVID, 6000 prisoners, death rate 0.15% = 9 deaths Edited June 1, 2021 by BritManToo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a dash of green chiretta and pinch of favipiravir, who needs a vaccine. Now how can we infect 60 million people quickly?

The defination of herd immunity does has a caveat. Viral evolution and changes in how people interact with each other can bring infection number up or down. It is not an absolute immunity when herd immunity is reached. Still need for prison authority to made changes and instil policies on interaction, behavior, distancing and so forth. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brommers Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 The esteemed governor should be prosecuted under the latest fake news legislation. These two so called treatments are nothing to do with building immunity, they merely moderate some of the effects of infection. This is a patent attempt at misleading the population and creating a wholly inaccurate understanding of the roles of the medications. Nothing kess than government sponsored Fake News. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
