Popular Post Bkk Brian Posted July 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2021 Just now, Keesters said: Your entiltled to say that as an opinion but not to state it as a fact. Yes I am and its not only my opinion: "A key limitation in our understanding of the COVID-19 pandemic is that we do not know the true number of infections. Instead, we only know of infections that have been confirmed by a test – the confirmed cases. But because many infected people never get tested,2 we know that confirmed cases are only a fraction of true infections. How small a fraction though? This chart shows the IHME model’s estimates of the true number of daily new infections in the Thailand. To see the estimates for other countries click “Change country.” The lines labeled “upper” and “lower” show the bounds of a 95% uncertainty interval. For comparison, the number of confirmed cases is also shown." https://ourworldindata.org/covid-models#institute-for-health-metrics-and-evaluation-ihme The model below is limited because Thailand has not released its latest testing figures so the mean average is only up till June 27th at which time it was already around 27,000 a day. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BestB Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Love the headline, Thailand warns Warns who? non existing tourists or locals who are under restrictions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainham Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I know let's have another Lockdown, it hasn't worked out yet but lets go for it again This nonsense is being repeated throughout the world, stay at home numbers down go out numbers will go up stay at home numbers down go out numbers up stay home numbers down I'm not the sharpest tool in the box but I'm seeing a pattern here lockdowns don't work. Vaccines do work all you have to do is invent one and give everyone a shot which is why the UK are returning to normal which really makes me proud even though I'm Irish ???????? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re testing 10000 per day that are positive and you test 10000 tomorrow you will have the same result tomorrow,does anyone know how many tests are done every day?? So the true figure could be higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pity you hadn't done that in the first place instead of presenting the same as facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess then Covid will not be a problem anymore. But perhaps this is just a new version of the Thai "tomorrow". The day that will not come so soon... Of course TAT maybe expecting a wave of undertakers , pharma salesmen and of course runners for vulture capitalists who may wish to buy up failed businesses at knockoff prices , tuktuks, jetskis,jets, stores, haws and even whole dumps from their Jinn-ha and Tcheow Chou chums. New plan is to have country only open from seven to eleven one grocer, one cement company and cement shoes for thise who differ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabang Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I don't know for how long time people will have energy fllowing these numbers and live in fear. One and half years should be enough but its doesn't seem that way. Maybe five years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kwaibill Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 14 hours ago, hotchilli said: The difference being from the UK to here is that after vaccination infection is less likely to hospitalise or kill people, It's just unfortunate we have a government that's hardly vaccinated anyone... Yes Wondering about the 5% claim when Al Jazeera reported closer to 1%. "Reports" of negotiations with vaccine producers who say " Whoa. Haven't heard a word." Who is more likely to be lying? No percentage in it for the manufacturers who are all to the wall trying to meet demand. I smell something Trumpishy in Paradise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joecoolfrog Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 On 7/19/2021 at 6:35 PM, daveAustin said: Indeed. 10k+ positives a day from 70,000 tests. Imagine if they tested one million per day! Exactly Why does this simple statement of fact elude so many on here. So ridiculous to pontificate about recorded cases when actual infections could be 5 or 10 times that number. The sheer incompetence of this Thai administration has guaranteed that the situation will remain dire all year , until mass vaccination is achieved the end game has not even started.

Not really.... that suggests the latest measures are a complete waste of time... more the numbers are simply being used as a fear factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so sure, the numbers were escalating in Bangkok so many were leaving for home provinces. Now the Delta variant is starting to take hold across the country I think those numbers are achievable.

elgenon Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Does anyone know the pulse of the Thais? Are they tired of the General's ineptitude? Maybe he should be fired? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
