anchadian Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) The top four provinces have seen increased infections from yesterday: Of the 2,296 local cases (excluding the cases in prisons and imported cases), the highest numbers by province were 943 in Bangkok followed by 321 in Samut Prakan, 265 in Phetchaburi, 106 in Trang, 92 in Samut Sakhon and 86 in Nonthaburi. https://twitter.com/ThaiEnquirer/status/1401776738141491201 Edited June 7, 2021 by anchadian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BestB Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Just now, brewsterbudgen said: I don't want it to get heavier at all - anything but; I'm desperately hoping schools will re-open as planned on 14 June. I was just surprised that you think the current partial lockdown can be described as "heavy". 7-11 closing at 23.00 doesn't sound particularly heavy (ridiculous to close it all, I agree) and obviously I was referring to the current (non)-lockdown, which allows dining-in at restaurants. but the current dine in is only 25% restaurant capacity, so would not call it open as normal. To me this is heavy restrictions, but could get more heavy. Point was it is not breezy and open. BKK may feel different but towns like Pattaya are empty, locals leaving because no work and as they leave, even somtam sellers close doors. Drive around town after midnight and its a ghost town in full darkness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live and work right in the middle of Bangkok, near Siam, and life is pretty much near normal during the day, and the 25% restaurant capacity isn't always noticeable at some places, particularly at lunchtime when the office-workers have lunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cases have been steadily going down in the last week or so (unless I'm misreading it). https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus/country/thailand I don’t think he posted the weekly average cases today. He did post the below daily case graph. the issue with the daily graph is that it has noise from weekend slow reporting, which results in some days having big spikes. Clearly visible on the daily chart. The next big spike would normally be tomorrow. the weekly average chart removes that daily noise. Regrettably I’m pretty sure that the last one posted showed a record number of cases in the last week. I’ll see if I can find it, if not, he might post it again in this thread out of the goodness of his heart. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post wensiensheng Posted June 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2021 I see the UK shadow home secretary is in the print media and TV calling for Thailand and Vietnam to be put on the UK red list, because of the risk of UK travellers bringing back Covid variants such as the Thai/Egypt one and the Vietnam mutant ninja hybrid. of course Thailand can counter by pointing to their advanced vaccination program and high percentage of population vaccinated. unfortunately even the UK government is smart enough to see through it as total codswhallop. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunMorris Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Daily numbers are irrelevant and without context. Established first-world countries use 7-days trends and positivity percentages.
