BobinBKK Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 It appears that Thailand will soon become a member of the 1 million infections club. Any bets on what that will occur? I'm guessing the 19th of August... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of reminds me a bit of Cuba, or North Korea. Both failed states. Very weak, Prayuth. You are a failed man, leading a nearly failed state. Don't hold back.

bkkcanuck8 Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 4 minutes ago, club said: What recoveries means here in Thailand most likely is you still test positive with either no symptoms or mild symptoms and can fully recover at home, but if you are still Covid positive you CAN still spread it. In the USA if you tested positive at hospital but you had no symptoms or mild ones you would be sent home and told to Quarantine for 14 days. I know because it happened to my 30 year old son. Its another misleading statement when they say people released recovered. Unlikely, if that was the definition of the recovered cases... then there would not be 210,042 active cases officially in Thailand (a little more than 25% of the entire total). Even if they don't have followup tests, 'quarantine' would still be considered active cases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olmate Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 4 minutes ago, ThailandRyan said: Think your missing the point. My GF's daughter, 7 years old was sent home from the hospital still sick, but not needing treatment except for the Favipirvar and the paracetamol. She was to isolate for 14 days at the end she was to be retested and then also given a chest x-ray to ensure she had cleared. She was not discharged as being healthy nor given a medical certificate they give you when they truly discharge you from care. That’s exactly right Her treatment is not over, she is on meds and has further tests to come Let’s see after she is given the all clear and discharged officially. As this point she is still under treatment and should not feature in the discharged as re covered stats. IMO. Wish her well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sunderland Posted August 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2021 With the MOPH claiming an average of just over 52,000 PCR tests per day among 68,000,000 million people, and over 22,000 positive cases from this number of tests, the positivity rate is over 40%. The testing may be targetted as some claim, but it's not even 1 person in every 1,000 per day. This will probably drag on and on for months. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cake Monster Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 With the MOPH numbers of infected being some 23,782, combined with the ATK tests that are 3,673 that makes a total of some 27,455 cases. This means the Virus is actually gaining momentum from about 1 week ago when on the path I predicted then from its previous 2 week path 30,000 cases would be reached by 16th August. It looks very much at this stage the number of 30,000 is going to breach sooner than the 16 th which means an Infection increase. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If over 22,000 are being released each day, we assume they are being given a PCR test to confirm they are now negative. If - big IF - these figures were included and they were all negative, then it could mean only around 30,000 new people being tested, which would mean an even greater positivity rate of over 70%. Doubtful, but as always, the maths doesn't really add up when people ask questions. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are being examined and released Covid positive if they have no Symptoms or mild symptoms. I am sure they are still being told to quarantine 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe given a couple of weeks worth of favipiravir and paracetamol and told to take it easy. If the authorities are counting these people as "recovered," they they're juking the stats. (Which would be s-h-o-c-k-i-n-g! 55) I don't have an issue with people either being released from or not going into hospital if they don't need specialised care or any care for that matter - I do have an issue with this administration trying to make themselves look good using word games and numbers 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only family members are isolated 14 days and tested 2 times! If you get symptoms you call ambulance which take you to hospital!

Popular Post 2 is 1 Posted August 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2021 Really worrying thing is , small hospitals whitout ICU unit now filling up whit covid patient's in province's. How they report from there that somebody need/are in icu if they even dont have icu! If main province hospital is full they cant move nobody to ICU. And i know how hard was in normal times to move main hospital from our small town hospital. I think its not more easy now! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
