The story of those with mild covid who are not turning up at hospital to be tested. If home quarantine/isolation was accepted and adequate support provided for those who have to do it then you'd probably see more people coming forward for testing. Today's new PUI's, just over 5000.

So will these figures be reported faithfully or spread over several days to lesson the impact?

13 clusters in migrant camps and 12 clusters in markets, so why are markets allowed to remain open? 1 cluster in a hi-so bar in Bangkok so all bars and entertainment venues closed with no mention of when they might open, hardly logical as there are thousands of people out of work for who knows how long.

There are some of us who believe some bars are safer than markets.

Remember the Thai Airways logo painted over after a Suvarnabhum crash? 

The figures must never be high enough to deter tourists.

I think people buy their food there.
