IMO they are refusing to test to keep the numbers hidden, places like factories Malls etc that have outbreaks they just either lock (quarantine) everyone inside and remove those that are sick and need treatment or shut the place down (Malls) and order all to quarantine - most are left untested and uncounted - that goes for the prisons as well - there could be an argument for this approach but it makes their daily figures pointless and not reflecting the true extent of the spread - primary reason for doing this - it makes them look good 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay safe folks Not related directly, it is the GF's ex and his family. They have now been cleared after tests were taken in their residence on Sunday morning and the wife returned after being in the hospital for over a month. Hits pretty close to home when extended non-visited extended family is involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Marvin Hagler Posted June 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2021 I predicted from the beginning of this outbreak that they would reach a threshold of daily cases and that the number wouldn’t change thereafter...and this is exactly the situation we have now. They either cannot or will not test more people. So they are stuck at testing x amount of people per day which yields x amount of positives. Surely even the staunchest junta huggers can see this? 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post dinsdale Posted June 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2021 My guess is somewhere between a 5-10% infection rate (average) from very limited testing. 20,000 tests around 10%, 40,000 tests around 5% or 30,000 tests around 7.5%. Conjecture of course as testing figures seem to now be a state secret. There seems to be no info after April 24. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wensiensheng Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 There’s no big spike in cases today. There is normally one after the weekend. it’s possible the country might have hit a peak a few days ago. Not necessarily in the 3rd wave, but in identified cases. Possibly the number continues to slowly drop away or discovery of a couple of big clusters pushes it back up. the cynic in me says there maybe some number manipulation to try to marry mass vaccinations news with falling case numbers, so as to bring happiness to the people. But there is no hard evidence of that. as usual, we will see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to get out ahead of these clusters at all these factories, markets, and businesses. There is a real need to increase testing, specially in locations that have been prone to outbreaks in the past. However this is Thailand, and the chances of the Government spending any more on testing is Nil. 1 hour ago, Bkk Brian said: New clusters daily, new large factory hotspots, staff told to isolate at home, numbers in same range, testing in same range, same same and it goes on and on with its devastating effects to the country and those living here. All these new " Clusters ", which in reality are just the same outbreak, makes me wonder if all the " Home Isolation " people and the workers confined to their Factories, are added into the Daily figures. There seem to be a lot of new outbreaks on a Daily basis, yet there are no more than the predictable 2000 ish number of new cases every Day 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
