Why should Thailand do any different? I think you'll find that those countries also tell their populace the number of tests being conducted. On this point why should Thailand be any different? Obviously I exclude China from this as they've lied to the world from the very beginning. Edited June 8, 2021 by dinsdale 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phuket in particular has stopped and just holding its breath till 1st July. like a child with adhd, the focus is on creating a narrative around vaccinations by the government. Everything else is in the past now. Edited June 8, 2021 by wensiensheng 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe next Monday they'll open as this will add to the facade that all is under control. Maybe ok in some provences but what I don't understand is that with far less daily infections schools were closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhere within all the announcements going back months, the PM said they couldn't afford a second wave, and here we are inside a third. Mention was made of expensive test kits, costs of deploying trained staff, cost of responding to higher numbers of positive cases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chalawaan Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Trust me if this was somehow limited to the poor, they wouldn't lift a finger, just like the road toll. When I see these numbers I think they're still lower than the daily road toll. So it's always a surprise that they are so paranoid about this, yet so mai bpen rai about the road toll. Yet amazingly, even their paranoia cannot overcome their nepotic, sclerotic, corrupt brain-dead incompetence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my doubts though. They are an easy target and if I lived in Bangkok I would be just as frustrated as you are. Luckily here in Phuket the International schools are open and we have my daughter back at school otherwise I would begrudge having to pay such high fee's for online learning which even when done well is not worth all that money. However with the case numbers in Bangkok then I guess its an easier decision for them to keep them closed? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So every student go visit in school, other times they study from home. This is in big schools where have much student. Other schools can open if they can do it safe way. I know for kids is important to go schools but is it good thing we will see later. All student fit them self in school vans really close to eatch other so how they haddle social distancing in schools is irrelevant.

Petey11 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 3 hours ago, Cake Monster said: 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. 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 Think it is clear by now that daily cases are limited by numbers tested. Yesterday just over 5000 PUI reported for Sunday and daily PUI nearly always in the 9-13k range. Yesterday Chonburi testing dropped to 714 in total including 227 testing of known contacts. If testing stays roughly the same and numbers roughly the same this could go on for months like this, with clusters continually popping up once the limited testing identifies them by default and not looking for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And walk in testing is not working! Can easily see from numbers in many province! Many days zero infected then pop up 1 to 25 new in one day! These coming coz they cant / want follow infection chains in every province! Edited June 8, 2021 by 2 is 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bkk Brian Posted June 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) Active case finding positives (yellow) lowest for some time, while hospital walkins (blue) rising. Not the best scenario. Yes I'll say it again, just not enough testing going on to find all cases and with the Indian variant now accounting for 6% of all cases, testing is the only way to identify it before it gets out of control. https://media.thaigov.go.th/uploads/public_img/source/080664.pdf Edited June 8, 2021 by Bkk Brian 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchadian Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Prison Covid rate nears 1 in 10 A further 534 coronavirus cases were found at three prisons in the past 24 hours, bringing the total number of infected inmates in the third wave to more than 30,000 people, the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) said on Tuesday. The prison population of Thailand is a little more than 310,000. The country reported 2,662 cases in the past 24 hours. Apart from the cases in prisons, 1,495 were found at medical facilities 617 via pro-active tests at known clusters and 16 imported cases, said Dr Taweesin Visanuyothin, the CCSA’s spokesman.
