Phuket Opinion: Enough rope

 

PHUKET: If anyone was still looking for evidence that the COVID infection figures provided by some officials in Phuket were not adding up, this past week – not once, but twice – they have had that evidence served to them on a plate.

 

Plenty of suspicions about the veracity of the figures published each day in the daily COVID situation report for Phuket have been abound for a long time, yet this past week those suspicions were confirmed by none other than the official reports themselves.

 

The numbers just aren’t adding up, and yet it is not surprising anyone. All this harks back to “Patient 26” last year, for those Phuket readers who remember.

It sounds like the Phuket numbers are not accurate, but the error bars are not that large.

Must be too much good news around today with the successful one million vaccine rollout on Friday and the continued reduction in new cases/ deaths, so back to the accusation of lying and massaging. 
 

 

 

Just curious if you're willing to take a bet on any of your rosy predictions.

 

It doesn't have to be monetary. Q simple I was wrong admission will suffice.

What the rosy predictions made months ago that the country would be opened up and fully vaccinated by the end of the year whilst some were predicting another year or more.

Ok, I predict the exact opposite

I saw on the thread about the 1 mil jabs a poster saying his appointment and 100's of other peoples appointments were cancelled for Tues and pushed to Friday. Guessing at the place of vaccination this also happened for those on Wed and Thurs. This can only be seen as manipulation to get their fantastic 1 million in a day number.

Yes you saw one guys opinion among others who say their appointment was actually bought forward.

Not an opinion. A real life experience. Big difference. If you are calling the poster a liar I suggest you go to the thread and share your 'opinion'.

more good news on the 7 day avg death number.

 

sept 10:  221

sept 17:  172

sept 24:  127

 

today:  125 (edit, this is a one day number not the 7 day average)

 

next two weeks will be very interesting.  will we get below 100/day or will the relaxed restrictions lead to a higher number.

It is not a seven day average number of deaths, the 125 were those that passed away yesterday, now if you meant the numbers of those dying is dropping everyday then you would be correct, yet every now and then the numbers do tick upwards just like those either taken off a ventilator or placed on a ventilator.  True the trend seems downward but it no way in reality shows the true numbers of actual cases unless you just want those tested and admitted for treatment.  ATK case positives do not get added to the actual case totals even though they will be self treating at home with medications given to them by the Government.
