webfact Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 By Erich Parpart Covid patients looking to return to their home province for treatment should check with the intended hospital first as hospital beds are also beginning to fill up in other provinces besides Bangkok, the government said on Wednesday. “Many provinces in the North and North East are now saying that their capacity is getting full and they may no longer be able to receive patients from the Bangkok and Metropolitan Region anymore,” said Apisamai Srirangson, the assistant spokeswoman of the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA). “If you are intended to go back and be treated at your home province, you might have to check with the intended province first,” she added.

Saturation point is fast approaching, infections and serious cases are forever rising, no efficient vaccines available for the majority, it's going pear-shaped very fast now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If everybody that is infected in Bangkok goes to the provinces then the Government will be able to say they have successfully managed the infection in Bangkok, it's the provinces that are failing. 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite in my opinion, how many of the 17% are actually sick, i.e. worse that a normal dose of flu or indeed are actually showing no signs at all. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have to be sick to spread it. If he is telling the truth its a lost cause now. The clowns have let everybody down with their incompetence on the vaccinations. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discussed with wife wether we should tell family in Thailand to buy personal supply of Oxygen just in case it is needed in the near future. Decided not to tell them so as not to inflame the supply shortage, but can't believe things have got so bad we even had to think like that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJ2U Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) In Issan it's hard to call them "hospitals". There not much more than cement structures with no doctors. Sakon Nakhon is really lacking in hospital facilities. We usually travel to Udon Thani Bangkok Hospital for anything more than a runny nose. Hopefully our family get doesn't get sick.

I doubt the government is, useless government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
