UK fully open 

UK testing 1 million people per day versus Thailand"s 40,000.

Thailand 76 different provincial governors with 76 different possible responses.

Thailand no joined up thinking, no plan, no consistency, no help for it's people, nearly a year behind the vaccine curve ball, begging for vaccine donations and can't even confirm a firm reopening plan.

 

34 thousand yesterday.Wow!, thanks.!!

The virus isn't going away.

When you have a nearly fully vaccinated population, you can open up society and get a drink in a bar.

Why worry or obsess about the UK?

You jealous that people have their freedom back?

This is a forum dealing with Thailand.

Instead of the one line snipping, give me something constructive Thailand has done for it's people or other countries during this pandemic?

Pitiful.

I give you an opportunity to support Thailand and you can't even give me a link or one concrete example?

At least i could find a link for farang bar owners, likely from the UK, feeding the homeless in Pattaya.

So Thailand's numbers now around 20,000.  It is good to compare other countries. How have Vietnam's numbers quickly dropped to around 1,000? Do they do/include antigen tests? 

Numbers... my head hurts.

Vietnam is the same they do not include their ATK tests although they are being urged to do so.

 

Authorities in Vietnam's biggest city are urging the government to recognise positive rapid tests for COVID-19 to present a clearer picture of its outbreak, state media reported on Monday, a move that could increase the city's case total by 40%.

It appears that Thailand has honored its word giving 10% of the donated US Pfizer vaccine to foreigners.  That is how I received my vaccination.  And for me this was quite constructive.

Noted todays update in the Thaiger, I don't normally quote their articles as they're usually a second hand source but this is an original piece and show's an interesting graph displaying the numbers of various provinces. Chiang Mai which is due to be one of the Provinces to open on 1st Nov.

 

Cases 1st Oct = 64

Cases 10th Oct = 225

Chiang Mai’s Muang Mai market closed for disinfection after new cluster of COVID-19 infections emerges

Chiang Mai’s largest retail market for fresh food, fruits and vegetables, Muang Mai, remains eerily quiet for a second day today (Sunday) after the provincial communicable disease committee decided to close it for three days for disinfection following the emergence of a fresh cluster of COVID-19 infections.

Many areas outside of Bangkok are bumping g upwards, but then from anecdotal information at my local pharmacy near Chulalongkorn university Bangkok has been doing many more ATK tests then PCR tests because of the outreach programs.

[anchadian]

Phuket is preparing to relax entry restrictions. Starting from 16 October, if you are fully vaccinated or have recovered from Covid-19 within 90 days, you no longer need to do a Covid test. Full details are expected soon.

That is why they are pushing ATK testing.

It 'fixes' the numbers nicely by hiding lots of positives.

Yes, some are false positives (as are some of the PCR tests) but the majority are correct positives. These are conveniently forgotten.

It would also appear from the MOPH graphic, that the number of walkins to the Hospitals was equal ( exactly ), to the number of ATK tests at 10,055.

This could mean one of two things

1) The public when testing positive are doing the right thing and stepping forward for treatment, or 

2) The the number of ATK tests is only recorded against those that present at a Hospital.

ATK testing always , from the get go, had the potential to hide many, many cases that were failing to come forward upon being tested as positive.

However, its good to know that there are responsible Citizens that are seeking assistance when testing positive. Although, I think there are large number who are just given a few Drugs and sent Home to self Isolate, and that is why I believe that they are coming forward. Pretty safe in the knowledge they will be sent back home to self Isolate, and not be sent to a Covid Prison, unless really sick.

But this policy opens a can of worms hen the patients return back to their Home. 

How many will actually correctly self Isolate, and if they do not, they will just spread the Virus further.

This could be why there is a significant upsurge over the last few days.

COVID-19 resurgence in Hua Hin and Chaiyaphum closes market and TAO office 

 

The Chatchai market, in Thailand’s resort town of Hua Hin, has been ordered to close for three days from Monday, after 30 people connected to the market were found to be infected with COVID-19.

 

The mayor of Hua Hin, Nopporn Wutthikul, and his team visited the Chatchai market today (Sunday) to inform traders there about the need to close the market.

The traders, numbering about 300, did not oppose the decision as several residents have expressed concern about the plan to reopen the resort town to all tourists from November 1st, noting that tourists may be discouraged from visiting if new infections are not curbed.

Is that the best you can come up with?

Honouring a clause in the donation's contract?

You would be better thanking Turkey/Germany/US who made the Pfizer vaccine not the country that pulled out of Covax.

It was fully vaccinated or just the J&J single vaccine and 1 of AZ, now we shall wait and see since it's 12 weeks between AZ jabs. That will keep folks like myself a d GF from heading home down like we had planned as her 2nd jab is not until December.

Why does no one ever talk about the four Southern Provinces. They combine for almost 25 percent of the total number of daily infections and the numbers are still growing.

Do I need to remind you of the planned Songkhla, Yala and Narathiwat sandbox/reopening?

I am not sure it is the best I can come up with.  But for me it was the most important as I received my vaccination before many Thai people.  So I feel quite lucky.  It is clear that your point against Thailand is not correct so just man up and admit that you were wrong.  No facts are twisted.  30 year old foreigners are receiving Pfizer in Chiang Mai when my older Thai friends wait for Moderna.

As part of the donation deal with Pfizer you got vaccinated, if i remember correctly, because that was part of the deal. I presume your a US citizen.

Well done. Congratulations.

Thailand honoured an agreement.

So what?

If they had have been part of Covax, you might have got a jab earlier.

Not including the rapid antigen tests (which every major western country does) is very bad taste. 

 

Whoever decided to not include these in the official numbers is playing politics.

To be fair alot of the people in hospital in Thailand is because their is a criminal waste of resources making sure positive testees are isolated and dumped into a jail/hospital. Clearly this threat stop people with symptoms coming forward to get a test, or even declare they are positive.

Now also for Samui:

 

Starting from 15 October, fully vaccinated domestic tourists can go to Samui without having to do an ATK test first. Also people who have recovered from Covid-19 less than 90 days before. Exceptions are children under 6 accompanied by parents

Thai Rural Doctors Society claims COVID-19 infections are rising, not falling

 

The Rural Doctors Society (RDS) has warned Thai people not to lower their guard, noting that COVID-19 infections in Thailand are not declining, as widely misunderstood. On the contrary, are increasing, averaging over 20,000 cases a day.

 

In its Facebook post today (Sunday), the RDS says “please pay attention and be on the alert” as it pointed out at the Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) has shown two figures for new infections today, from different testing methods –  10,817 cases from RT-PCR tests and 10,055 cases from antigen tests.

Actual infections today from the two test results should have been more than 20,000 cases, said the RDS.
