I think it’s posted to annoy you. You can stop reading them. As for me, I find the daily report useful to gauge where the country is heading. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brewsterbudgen Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 1 minute ago, Bkk Brian said: Thai students suffer inequality and poor mental health as pandemic lingers Misguided policies, neglect and mistreatment by the Thai government and school authorities have caused a mental health crisis among students. Globe columnist Mark S. Cogan explains fundamental reforms are a long way away The catalyst for the student strike is the combination of the government’s gross incompetence in slowing the spread of the coronavirus pandemic and the prolonged closure of educational institutions throughout Thailand. As a result, millions of Thai students have had no other option but to continue their studies online. Unfortunately for many, the lack of government preparedness for a major disruption to primary and secondary education, the financial strain caused by the pandemic, extreme levels of income inequality and high levels of household debt have created a dilemma for Thai students that is often well beyond their ability to control. https://southeastasiaglobe.com/thai-students-mental-health/ Things are improving, but still no likelihood of schools re-opening any time soon. Shameful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Cake Monster Posted September 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2021 Cases of published positive results have certainly decreased since 30 th August. However, with the combined PCR and ATK tests taken from this Date to present , it would certainly appear as though the number of Daily Infected has stagnated at about 15,000 per Day over this 14 day period. ATK also seems to betaking over as the main method of detection. IMO , a risky policy that has no protocols over the results taken from the tests issued, making it possible for there to be many more positives than are actually published. The Gov,t must be delighted. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the Thai Govt are also trying to manufacture consent for mandatory vaccinations of schoolchildren below 18 (and mooted for as young as 3yo..), despite WHO guidelines stating risk of heart inflammation is higher than Covid at this age range.

CCSA to Decide Friday if Pattaya Can "Move On" With The Oct 1st Reopening Approval from both the CCSA and Cabinet are needed before Pattaya can begin to "move on" The Move On plans fall far short of what Pattaya lovers overseas and expats were expecting and hoping for. Unlike the Phuket Sandbox, Pattaya visitors, despite being fully vaccinated will be confined to their pricey Safety and Health Administration-certified hotels for 3 days and only allowed to venture out to the immediate area with a government supplied tour guide for the first 7. The sealed route travel will continue for a second week with tourists only allowed to visit predetermined family friendly sites. https://bangkokherald.com/thailand/pattaya/ccsa-to-decide-friday-if-pattaya-can-move-on-withe-oct-1-reopening/ More Insanity, if they truly believe the cases numbers and that double vaccinated people flying in are safer than the locals, why not enforce it both ways and either make the testing and sequestering the same for domestic as well as international travelers.

Popular Post Scrotobike Posted September 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2021 "The Royal College of Pediatricians of Thailand, has suggested to the BMA that students aged 12-16 years old should be vaccinated only if they are in a vulnerable group such as by being obese, or having a chronic respiratory disease, Coronary Artery Disease, being at risk of Stroke, Chronic kidney disease, Cancer and Immunodeficiency illnesses, Diabetes, or one of the genetic disorders including Down syndrome.

Scrotobike Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 The numbers reported are positive tests from PCR tests and are not the new covid cases in Thailand. So comparing trends is misleading as we do not know the number of total new covid infections day by day. The question is how many covid cases in Thailand? How many new cases today. I have no idea. Do you??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm struggling to understand the scientific reasoning behind even a single days quarantine for a double vaccinated + negative tested person entering a country that has a lot of corona already. I maybe could be persuaded that the minuscule threat is big enough to be extra careful in a country that has zero corona (if any such country still exists), but not in one recording over 10,000 cases a day. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwinchester Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 2 hours ago, smedly said: exactly but somehow rapid tests don't count not sure of rapid test accuracy in Thailand but this from the UK NHS Research shows rapid tests are 99.9% accurate. This means the chance of getting a false-positive result (where the result shows as positive but is actually negative) is extremely low. Yes with a RAT you are much more likely to get a false negative than a false positive so the use of rapid antigen tests is going to find less positive cases than the same number of PCR tests would. This alone can have dire consequences trying to identify an outbreak of covid-19 and contain it's spread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they are going downwards, they are all lies and not telling the true story. Your description seems quite apt.

sapson Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 3 hours ago, webfact said: Thailand on Monday (September 13) reported 12,583 new COVID-19 cases, 16,304 recoveries and 132 additional deaths over the past 24 hours. This is false reporting if the 6,346 antigen positive tests are not included in the figure. If they test mostly with antigen and lower the pcr tests rates and fail to include antigen in daily total figures then for sure a rapid decline will be projected and not a reflection of reality....just as the Junta ordered.
