TAK, June 29 (TNA) – The number of COVID-19 cases from a sewing factory in Mae Sot district has exceeded 600 and overcrowded two local field hospitals.

 

The cluster at a sewing factory in Mae Tao Klang village was growing as health workers were conducting mass testing on Myanmar workers at local factories in Mae Tao sub-district. The active case finding effort already covered about 1,000 people, 606 of whom tested positive for the virus.

Another area where the inevitable will happen.

 

They will all end up isolating at home while infected.

 

Can't they see that the current policy is nothing more than a big failure?

    Correct . 

       Poor people  living  in poor regions of Thailand .

       Who cares .....

Clean, professional reporting would mean to compare the total number of citizen living in a country against the total number of death cases in the same country over the same time period. Then you go and compare differences from the actual year with the previous year. There are big surprises in Europe by having hardly any increase of total death cases when comparing 2020 with 2019 or 2019 with 2018! 

Testing positive does not stand with "drop dead now"!

Home isolation won't stop hungry folks from working, either.

With all these covid victims crowding into hospital and lack of vaccine available have there been any advances in treatment or is that considered a taboo subject?
