Amazing how countries are acting differently. Sports in US, Football in Europe & Brazil, tennis in France & Singapore with 18 cases cancels F1.

Madness is having parks closed but gyms I'm not so sure about when the virus is still around, there's plenty of evidence that they can spread the virus although not as much as some other indoor places.

It's a combination of factors, I think.

 

Chinese vaccines are less effective. Some of this effectiveness is simply because of the type of traditional technology they are using.

 

Another factor will be that people are fairly stupid and don't seem to understand science at all. Being vaccinated is not a free ticket to not wear masks and practice social distancing and the enhanced measures, not for now. A vaccinated person is still very capable of becoming infected with old and new strains and can pass the virus onto others.

 

Until this virus is eradicated entirely (like Polio), we will be at risk. 

 

Thanks, China

Regretably polio is not eradicated, far from it.

Are these "weekend" numbers and if so, how much weight should be put on them?

A fair question. Not just weekend numbers though but all numbers. I think it's good to keep in mind that this is, all be it in some sort of disquise, a military/junta government that suppresses freedom of speach. Believe them or not is up to you.

Or less likely to be infected as you age, but maybe higher risk of death from underlying existing problems. 

Figures can be manipulated to suit the required outcome /agenda.

Has any study been undertaken to establish the effectiveness or otherwise of vaccination on the older population with serious underlying conditions?

Eight hours and only 2 pages of replies...it seems interest in the daily numbers is dwindling fast. I know I've lost interest...a couple thousand cases a day ad-infinitum until widespread vaccination seems to be the story now.

Just what the government wants. Have to save face somehow when you have completely cocked things up.

Although Bangkok is a mess, the rest of the country is seeing the wave recede. Outside of the prisons, that is.

 

I would bet money that this wave will effectively end before 70% of the population is vaccinated.

So what will they do, open up other provinces and put the barbed wire around Bangkok to prevent people travelling to other areas that are open?

Just read in a BP news item, one poor lady waited for 4 days at a covid testing location before she got tested, positive result, died 5 days later and her husband is still in hospital. Adequate testing been carried out I think not.

That's quite a prediction, in other words it could be next month or mid next year.

 

Nobody knows when 70% of the population will be vaccinated and at this rate it will be well into next year for that to happen.

 

The UK took 6 months to get to 50% of all adults with second dose last week.

I read that story...I wouldn't make sweeping conclusions from a sample size of two; and for whatever reason, this woman must have been exceptionally vulnerable to the virus...for all she reported was a fever and testing positive and dying a few days later.

If she was exceptionally vulnerable why would you make her wait for four days for a test?It indicates a severe lack of testing ability in Thailand and you can try all you like to defend Thailands indefensible lack of testing which as can be seen is causing drastic outcomes for some.You say it's only two cases but you don't know how many cases there are because of the lack of testing.
