webfact Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 (Photo by Lillian SUWANRUMPHA / AFP) Citing the low daily COVID-19 infection rate, of fewer than five cases for the past seven days, the provincial communicable disease committee of Chiang Mai has decided to ease some restrictions, starting Wednesday (June 9th). Mr. Kanok Srichainan, permanent secretary of the Chiang Mai provincial administration, said today (Tuesday) that the COVID-19 situation in the province has improved steadily, so the provincial communicable disease committee deems it appropriate to allow the resumption of regular opening hours of department stores, convenience stores, shopping malls, community malls, night markets and eateries. Alcoholic drinks, however, are still not permitted in eateries, including their outdoor facilities, and sales promotion activities, which may draw many people together, are still banned in malls and department stores.

Popular Post Advocatus Diaboli Posted June 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 9, 2021 If they did allow the alcohol service in Chiang Mai you would get a big influx of Bangkok party goers. Least we can still buy for home consumption. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trujillo Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 "Cumulative infections in the province, since ... April 1st, have reached 4,106 cases, but most have recovered, leaving 64 cases still under treatment in hospitals. The provincial death toll is 26..." So 4,106 positive tests. Assuming no false positives (that never happens, right?), that means that 4,042 have recovered and thus protected in the future as if they had had a vaccination. Great, right? With 26 deaths in the province of 1.76 million souls, that means that 0.0015% of all residents here died with/of the virus since April 1st. In English, that's fifteen ten thousands of one percent. I'm just curious, and an open question for the government authorities: How "safe" does it have to be (how much risk is acceptable) to end the masking (outdoor particularly), the closures of fitness centers and ... of bowling alleys, etc? Would 0.0015% do it? Or do we want to get all the way down to 0.001%? Does anyone in the government understand the phrase, "theater of the absurd"? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In April, the the number of infected was rising rapidly. Locking down seems to have worked. We've seen what happens elsewhere when rules are lax in the face of rising infections.
