Thailand on Friday (September 24) reported 12,697 new COVID-19 cases, 13,540 recoveries and 132 additional deaths over the past 24 hours.

 

◼︎ 13,540 recoveries

◼︎ 12,527 new infections 

◼︎ 170 prison / prison infections

 

▶︎ Total infections since April 1: 1,508,447

▶︎ Total recoveries since since April 1: 1,336,476

 

Friday’s cases bring the total number of COVID-19 infections in Thailand to 1,537,310 with 16,016 deaths.

 

The news comes as Thailand's disease control committee has proposed a halving of a two-week hotel isolation requirement for vaccinated arrivals, amid delays in plans to waive quarantine and reopen Bangkok and tourist destinations from next month.

 

Thailand is keen to welcome back foreign visitors, after nearly 18 months of strict entry policies caused a collapse in tourism, a key sector that drew 40 million visitors in 2019.

 

"Reducing the quarantine is not only about tourism, but will help business travel and foreign students," senior health official Opas Karnkawinpong told a news conference, adding tests would also be required.

Today is the day they are scheduled to do 1 million jabs, wonder if they will make it.  If they can I hope they were full intermuscular vaccinations and not the new under the skin jabs to save on vaccines.  I still can not find anywhere else that the under the skin vaccination has been done or even studied.  Sounds to me they will be doing it like one would get a TB test done, where the bubble under the skin is given....

Yes I thought there'd  be some sort of fanfare event for this going on, not seen anything published today about it yet, perhaps it will be a photo op later with the millionth person being jabbed?

Maybe because it's a holiday.

No wonder today was the push day for 1 million vaccine jabs. It was done to honor Prince Mahidol. Hope it works out.

This is the second day running that low Prison infections have been published.

28 Yesterday and 170 today.

Seems a tad weird after many Days with rising cases , and the number was near to 700 previously.

Creative accounting me thinks.

Sounds promising if the field hospitals are not needed. A question I have is how many bubble and sealed factories and businesses are there, and how many folks are still sealed in.?

Video of the chaos in the tweet, awful scenes:

 

So many people turned up at Kantang Hospital in Trang today to get vaccinated that they had to call the police to help hand out queue numbers. Today is Mahidol Day and health officials planned to vaccinate one million people today to honour the Father of Modern Medicine #Thailand
