snoop1130 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Bangkok authorities began sending asymptomatic and mild COVID-19 cases back to the northeastern region of Thailand on Tuesday, for isolation and treatment, as the capital, the current epicenter of the current wave, runs out of hospital beds. 135 “green” or mild and asymptomatic patients are being transported, on a special train, to their hometowns in Buriram, Surin, Sisaket, Ubon Ratchathani, Amnat Charoen, Yasothon and Nakhon Ratchasima today. The train will only stop at the pre-planned destinations, while close supervision by medics will be provided on the train. Ambulances will be waiting for the patients as they arrive, to take them to designated isolation areas.

Dont confuse me Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 My mates two sister in laws who tested positive in bkk went back to issan under their own steam. We're eventually 'housed' on a local farm. You gotta feel for the people no empathy or thought of financial help from the government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrJ2U Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Issanb clinics cant handle more than a fever or sprained ankle. The hospitals here in Sakon Nakhon are overflowing in the best of times. This isn't going to turn out well. They need to open up the multitude of army bases. Put the field hospitals on the military golf courses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobU Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 They are actually sending patients with symptoms home to die as well using this 'asymtomatic' rule as the excuse I am thinking of the 2 orphaned girls who's mother told them to go to an orphanage before she died. The mother had been sent home after presenting with symptoms... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaving aside how incredibly silly such a long-distance train transport of patients is, it also hardly helps: Bangkok currently has about 3,000 new cases per day, officially at least, so sending 135 of them off amounts to almost nothing in terms of relief.
