ikke1959 Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Less cases... but weekend effect. Besides that they have still the prisons to lower the cases in general public and now they put the rapid test with it. Easier to manipulate the numbers now, because in October the country has to open so more people are recovering than thatthere are new infections. The Government want to show how effective the vaccinations are, the lock down and how wonderful they handle the crisis... but the real reality?????

He said his body never really recovered from the time when he had Covid-19. He is tired easily, coughing & sneezing, and finds it difficult to breathe. https://twitter.com/ThaiNewsReports/status/1427063866370924544 https://mgronline.com/onlinesection/detail/9640000080274 Government support for top officials who try hard is as lacking as it is for the praise it shows to its frontline heath workers. "He said he had asked for a transfer owing to health issues, but his request was denied due to “internal politics”. “My dream of working for the government until retirement has come to an end because I have been working too hard. My seniors who had promised to help don’t seem to be doing anything. After my name was not included in the transfer orders, my doctor suggested I resign,” he said. Veerasak said he decided nearly a week ago that he would hand in his resignation on Monday. “I cannot fight anymore. I’m done. It’s over,” the governor said." https://www.nationthailand.com/in-focus/40004728 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bkk Brian Posted August 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 16, 2021 Big profits being made here. An antigen test kit (ATK) is essential to test for Covid-19 at home, but sadly the selling price in Thailand is high when compared to other countries. ATK in Thailand is priced at THB350 to THB400 per kit (for single use). The price is extremely high as some people need to use it many times or even every day. There are 34 suppliers registered with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as of Thursday, offering different types of ATKs They are imported from many countries, such as China, South Korea, Switzerland, and Spain. The average price of ATK on foreign websites is THB100 per kit/use. https://www.nationthailand.com/in-focus/40004732 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gone are days when we stopped at a supermarket to pick up a few things on the way home from work. Equally, there’s no more dropping by the fresh market in the neighborhood in the vague hope the stalls might still have some tasty fruit and veg left. https://www.thaipbsworld.com/how-covid-19-has-changed-the-way-we-shop/ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
