From the actual CDC report on Thailand: Make sure you are fully vaccinated before traveling to Thailand. Unvaccinated travelers should avoid nonessential travel to Thailand. Complete disaster? So what per cent of Americans who might want to travel to Thailand d are not fully vaccinated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now cases are rising. I guess 6 months from now when the wave is over, you will slam me for stating today that cases are rising. Yes, they are declining but not in Thailand.

Pravda Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Serious question. If Thailand vaccinates majority of the population with Sinovac does that mean they will have to revaccinate almost everyone in a year when new strains render this subpar vaccine ineffective? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Will this ever end?" - not for a very long time. New variants will continue to appear. We just have to learn to live with it and get as many people vaccinated as possible.

AS of the revised report on Thailand, only non-fully vaccinated persons are being urged to avoid travel to Thailand. As stated in my original post from the article, why do you feel the need to repeat it? "The CDC rates Thailand as “very high” for Covid-19 Levels and advises that only fully vaccinated people consider travel to Thailand. This is in line with Thailand’s current reopening rules requiring all international arrivals to be fully vaccinated. Unvaccinated travellers are warned by the CDC not to attempt travel to Thailand unless it’s absolutely essential and warns that anyone travelling to Thailand runs a high risk of being exposed to Covid-19."

Danderman123 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 1 hour ago, GroveHillWanderer said: Mexico has one of the highest CoVid-19 case fatality rates in the world. In many countries, if you get infected, your chance of dying is 2-3%. In Mexico, it's over 9%. I am aware of the mortality numbers. These numbers are high because they don’t test anyone, and so the few reported infections are people near death who make it to the hospital before they die. Those who die at home are not included in the numbers. Having said that, Mexico is largely ignoring the virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The daily numbers are influenced to a degree by the amount of testing and it’s pleasing that you now appear to be the most vociferous advocate for more testing to be carried out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anchadian Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Delta variant in Thailand may replace Alpha in few months, says Medical Science Dept Medical Sciences Department Director-General Dr. Supakit Sirilak predicted that, in the next 2-3 months, the Delta (Indian) variant of COVID-19 may replace the Alpha (UK) strain as the dominant COVID-19 strain in Thailand, because it is 40% more transmissible than the Alpha variant. He said the Medical Sciences Department has been monitoring 5,055 cases of infected people since April and found that 89.6% of them were infected by the Alpha strain and only 9.8% by the Delta variant, including 404 cases in Bangkok, as well as three infected by the Beta (South African) strain in three districts of the southernmost province of Narathiwat. 10 patients under treatment in as many as 4 hospitals in Bangkok were found to be infected with the Delta variant, he added. https://www.thaipbsworld.com/delta-variant-in-thailand-to-replace-alpha-in-few-months-says-medical-science-dept/?fbclid=IwAR1XlY1-sb5S3EPAHBucd85qWCyxNEHhFmYc9grDJJqlyVrliygcCkYSiI8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I told you yesterday. But, a “normal” level of 3,000 cases a day is not good at all.

Rhacsyn Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 5 hours ago, anchadian said: Leading Chula professor criticizes government’s Sinovac obsession A leading professor at Chulalongkorn University has come out this week to criticize the government for its continued obsession with acquiring Sinovac vaccines. The professor joined Thai Enquirer to outline her grievances, the same one she shares with millions of other Thais. It might not have been as clear in the beginning, but the inefficiency of this [Sinovac] vaccine has been reported in numerous, real-life cases from many countries, from Indonesia to Brazil, said Professor Siripan Nogsuan, an Associate Professor and the Head of the Department of Government, Faculty of Science at Chulalongkorn University. Professor Siripan told us the main question she has for the government is why they are still choosing Sinovac over other vaccine alternatives when it’s clear that it is more expensive and has a much lower efficacy rate? https://www.thaienquirer.com/28886/leading-chula-professor-criticizes-governments-sinovac-obsession/ Whilst not questioning the professors intelligence, or distracting in any way from the important question she has raised, for correctness purposes only, she is the head of the faculty of political science. The report states faculty of science. https://www.research.chula.ac.th/researcher-/siripan-nogsuan-sawasdee/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
