We're missing the full details of this Surin Official. When did he arrive in Phuket, where had he been, what were the circumstances of his entry in Phuket. Who else is at risk? 

 

With such a high profile incident then this sort of information is critical.

The photo with the PM that came from the Facebook page of Veerasuk and all posts since 29th June have been removed.

No timeline available.

Also of interest is the Surin City Immigration annexe office was closed due to high ranking immigration officers spreading Covid-19 to the junior staff.

Also no timelines available.

Why ? Millions in the Uk have been told to isolate if they come in contact with someone with covid even if they have had two AZ jabs ! Doesn't mean the AZ wont work, its just means  madly over precaution 

not sure where you get your news, but it seems that some studies are suggesting that AZ is not working effectively against Delta, maybe 30% at best

sounds like a sponsored article on Forbes,

 

anyway, nobody in Europe wants AZ anymore, and some "researchers" are claiming that it's not efficient against Delta and could explain why the UK is seeing a new wave of infections

 

the numbers seem to agree, but maybe too soon to be definitive about it

 

let's see in 6 months,

That will be the Lambda variant. It's devastating Peru.

Think you should look at the hospitalization and death rate now in the uk before spouting that garbage.

 

Covid - even with Delta - is now about the 24th biggest killer in the UK each month. People will get covid - 100%, but it wont kill as many - some yes, nothing is 100%. 

 

Vaccines are NOT about preventing infection as much as reducing death and the need for hospital - in that AZ is doing fine against the covid Delta variant.  In fact if you actually bothered to investigate it - rather than spout rubbish - you'd see the deaths and those in the hossy are mostly those chosen NOT to vaccinate with the AZ.

From this image I'd suggest it isn't just the PM that was in close contact with the guy but likely the whole mob of them. Shouldn't they all be self quarantining?

The PM was injected with AZ while Anutin was injected with Sinovac.

You believe everything they say? - They possibly both had Moderna or Phizer ...............LOL

Apart from the photo ops will anyone really notice.

There's still hope, another test will be due before he finishes isolation ????

The question is why not test him just like the Sandbox entrants, once every few days.  They have been vaccinated as well priorvto arrival. What's good for the goose is good for the gander in my book, no special dispensation allowed.

What has the chairman of trade for surin got to do with the Phuket sandbox, well he could have something, but again, it’s just beanos for the boys, I wonder if they took in a couple of gentleman’s clubs while they were down there?

Hey, the two provinces are almost next door - it is after all only 1277.8 km by the shortest driving route from Surin to Phuket!

So he is on the submarine at the bottom of the Bay where he has monitors to watch the Sandbox and the country.  Maybe the country can do what it did to Thaksin when he went to the UN for a meeting and stage another coup to rid themselves of him.

Anutin if he had Sinovac needs to be worried.  Many of the GF's family in Bang Na have been vaccinated with Sinovac, but they now have Covid.  Her two aunts, one of which is on a ventilator still had both Sinovac vaccinations along with her husband and others in the family.  The GF just talked to her cousin in Bang Na, who is 29 and also has been vaccinated with Sinovac and she and her family all have Covid, can not taste or smell, and the hospital they would go to has been closed due to the big fire at the plastics factory, and there is no place for them to go now.  They have been isolating at home but its 6 people in a 2 room house.  Tenuous at best.  I do not wish ill tidings for the PM, Anutin, and their ilk, but you live by the sword you die by the sword is the right mantra for them.

We certainly hope the PM Prayut Chan-O-Cha is ok and will be fine. 

Just goes to show,  it is always best to be cautious with the Covid virus.

 

Let's see our PM back up and out & about as soon as possible.

well done Khun Prayut Chan O Cha.

[mtls2005]

What a putz.

 

And he was calling for artificial rainmaking for the Bang Phli factory fire.

 

 

Evidently you can teach stupid.

 

 

Why was Surin Chamber of Commerce chairman Veerasak Pisanuwong in Phuket? Did he meet the entry requirements?

Theres a lot of turds in that sandbox.  

The boss shows up to open the sandbox, with his mate who has got Covid 19!

We don't know what strain but if it is delta then maybe rename the box De Elta, Sandpit.

What a circus, and if you don't know 5 elderly people have caught Covid in the Summit rest home in Sydney.

4 of them were vaccinated in April with Pfizer, they are hoping that they don't get  to sick, wait and see hope they r ok.(source channel 9 news Sydney).

So if Delta was present when opening the sandbox with the Boss Man then , according to the Aussies this variant can spread with only 5 seconds of exposure.

Hang on for the ride, 

I hope he recovers quickly the sandbox needs him.

He's hiding from the wave of criticism sweeping Thailand.

Still "performing" his duties....... unfortunately.........
