webfact Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Picture: Sanook Sanook reported on an accident on the Lampang to Chiang Mai road in the Khao Khuntan area in which a Toyota Fortuner with Bangkok plates smashed into the back of a ten wheel truck in the early hours of yesterday morning. Two people in the car died and three others were taken to Hang Chat Hospital where one of the injured tested positive for Covid-19. This resulted in 30 highway and local police, foundation rescue workers and medical personnel who were at the scene having to be tested for Covid-19 and go into immediate quarantine. The car was travelling from Bangkok to Chiang Mai on a business trip, said Sanook citing comments from one of the injured. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2021-08-13 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJ2U Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) Another reason to vaccinate everyone. Despite the chance of spreading it even after vaccination. Theres less chance of serious infection and thus taking up hospital beds, more importantly oxygen tanks and respirators. There in short supply in some provinces.

Peterphuket Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 2 people in the car died. When I look to the car the cabine don't look heavy smashed, no safety belts? I wonder.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Tracy Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 A lot to be said for correct PPE now. Assume everyone has covid and plan accordingly. Boys in brown PPE suits, I can see it now...I Hazmat suits with wings and lanyards, silver bullion around the face masks for higher ups. Seriously, though. 30 people in quarantine for want of correct protective equipment. I'm tempted to say, sufficient baton rounds, water cannon,tear gas grenades and such like, but no PPE...
