First they drum up an extreme level of paranoia and fear, with the Covid news. Now, they ask the locals to be calm? 

 

Are there some officials who refuse to take their meds?

They keep thinking of ways to spread the virus far and wide.

In the movie "Outbreak" what did they do?  The locked down the town and isolated the contagion area.

Here in Thailand what do they do?  They use trains, planes, and automobiles to spread the contagion across the entire nation.  Nobody wants to ask the hard question:  "Why is that?  They have been doing this since Songkran.  And they keep doing it.

As soon as Bangkok is empty they will shout   ''Look how clever we are; now Bangkok has zero new cases every day '' !   All predictable really as to Bangkokians they are the Centre of the Universe and the rest of the country can go to Hell as it is full of Jungle Bunnies and, even more important... 'REDS' !

Are you <deleted> kidding me? 

 

Get rid of the problem and send it home? That's how you prevent the spread of infection? Against advice not to travel, checkpoints and all?

 

You cannot make this up.
