Do you think that the UK has done better than Thailand? In July 2021, yes they have done much better. A higher vaccinated population and far less deaths. Coming out of lockdown. That's better. Who cares about the number of cases? Covid is like the Flu now in the UK. That's pretty much the end game. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogmatix Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 When India was having a tough time with COVID some Thai official said that it was lucky that international media was focused on India as they didn't notice the relatively mild second wave happening in Thailand there would be negative ramifications for the sandbox and reopening plan. As Warren Buffet likes to say, "When the tide goes out you can see whose been swimming naked." Now the pandemic has subsided in India for now at least and foreign media can focus on Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam. The real tragedy is unfolding in Burma but no news is coming out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteBuffaloATM Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 pointless comparing UK and Thailand.....for anything.....utterly different. ”defamation” charge by thai govt against BBC then...”your true report has harmed us”. ” nobody will come here now”.... er, thats been in place since April last year bbc report about dramatic increase in deaths and restrictions here. total covid deaths over last 16 months have still only reached 2 normal months of moped road deaths, largely reduceable but nothing ever done..... 60% Delta Death figure rapidly increasing towards 90% by Oct. before any effective western vax largely available..... regretable that Alpha still killing many hundreds of unvaxed thais due to Sinovac unavailable or denied ....... Thais over 60 ARE being vaxed with AZ e.g. my lady’s mother at Main Bkk Bus Stn vax centre...no bkk city entry...... . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middle class gated community, 250 homes, around 1,000 residents.

harada Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Thai police have been carrying high powered rifles since 1980 that I know of, nothing new here, but seeing a brave Thai doctor on the news in Aust stating that Sinovac was probably given preference over others because brown envelopes would have been involved would make me think twice about returning to Thailand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On quick check, Deaths in UK = 129,000 Deaths in Thailand = 3,000 Are you just Thai bashing or is there something I can't see here? To be precise, as of today there are officially 3502 deaths, over 2000 of them in the last 5 weeks alone, despite the many significant restrictions in public life, that should make one think … This pandemic is far from over and in Thailand they seem to be just getting started really now, not a pleasant prospect when the country is so lacking in reliable and sufficient vaccine and at least the bizarre British PM was absolutely right about that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of my friends are going to camp sites this year in a tent or caravan. A campsite? Shock horror. Whatever next... Do you think the majority of Thais are going to be sunning themselves in 6 star resorts in The Maldives this year? Maybe your mates in the Junta, but nobody else. Get a grip, most Thais don't even have holidays. If they do, it's a trip to the next town to stay at their cousins house and drink whisky on their porch. 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
