anyone see a connection 

Yes I see the connection. But someone with less than a few brain cells will be along in a minute to state that Thailand is doing/has done swimmingly well compared to western nations despite testing a FRACTION of the populace.

Latest vaccination figures show over 12% of population now double jabbed with 35% receiving a single dose. 
 

At current rates predicted to reach 70% target by December 23rd. 

Great Xmas present for all ????

I have the usual number of brain cells and still feel Thailand has so far fared well.... based on Covid per capita deaths, if not testing numbers.

It’s official, Thailand is literally the the most efficient country in the world at administering vaccines…..they are so efficient that they can project themselves into the future to administer vaccines today that they won’t be receiving until October.

Trash to treasure: Thailand makes Covid-19 protective gear out of upcycled bottles

 

SAMUT PRAKAN, Thailand, Sept 3 (Reuters) - With an abundance of plastic waste but a scarcity of personal protective equipment (PPE), Thailand is turning trash into treasure by upcycling bottles into protective clothing for people at risk of coronavirus infection.

I don’t understand how anyone could entertain for a moment the idea of believing these numbers.

 

The UK managed 600k jabs in a day on only 2 occasions. The rest of the time it was between 400k to 500k.

 

It is completely absurd.

Good to see Thailand pushing ahead with it's, albeit belated, vaccination campaign. I guess it is down to supply from here on in.

 

Also nice to see other slow starters in SE Asia, such as Philippines (a genuine logistic nightmare) also moving quickly now and just reaching around 13% fully vaxxed. In fact, they administered close to 5 million jabs between 11th and 15th August, pretty impressive.

 

Long may it continue.......

Because in simple terms, the deaths showing today are from infections of up to two weeks ago. Not from the infections of today so this is why you cannot make a comparison in this way.

Just 1,235 positive pro active pcr tests yesterday, thats the lowest number since June when confirmed cases were less than 4k a day. 

 

I presume this is because of their preference for ATK rapid tests now, which we know don't get logged unless the patient enters a facility for care.
