David, Don't keep repeating this every week please its getting boring. Of course if you keep saying this same old thing week in week out there will most certainly become a time that for once, just once in the future you will be correct. But for the time being and for the months ahead become a realist not an optimist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The regular posters here are now every familiar with certain BM's views, and I for one value hearing both sides, not just one person's "realism". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are deaths the same rate underestimated? They must be, otherwise, it stands to reason that Thais are practically already immune to infection. If not, why are the bodies not piling up? Why are so few in hospital on ventilators? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't speak for DavisH, but I think the point he's making is that it's still a relatively low figure for this pandemic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good news is that the number of people on ventilators is declining. Same with infections in Chonburi - only 25 today. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes thanks to the current measures. Would have been even lower if they had locked down previously and the situation would be much better now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superal Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 On 6/5/2021 at 3:22 AM, Macrohistory said: Let's face it, 2,500 cases a day means that the virus is effectively circulating out of control. There is no way the public health people can contact-trace for 2,500 cases a day. So-called "clusters" pop up where testing happens to be going on, but in reality the virus is all over the place, or soon will be -- at least in Bangkok. It may not be all over the place in high concentrations, though, so infection is still avoidable for any given individual. The only thing to do now is socially isolate as much as possible and wait for a vaccine. My Thai family in Issan tell me they have never seen any testing locally in the Surin district , there is no social distancing , crowded markets continue , half mast mask wearing at best by many . no recorded entry into larger shops , over crowded buses , little if any government guideline or covid info broadcast on the television . Breaking news -- now a serious belief that the virus is being carried in the wind for miles , say scientists ( but I cannot find a link as of yet ) , avoid popular convenience such as 7-11s especially if on a long journey cos these places are used by many long distance lorry drivers from Bangkok . Try to avoid using cash as the virus sticks to bank notes . Sanitize every product bought from shopping malls etc with disinfectant wipes when you get home cos many customers take products off the shelf to read product info and then replace to the shelf . Is there online shopping in your area which can also deliver ? if not try to have 1 shop a week only . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
