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

[webfact]

 

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.

How many of the 30 connected people had been vaccinated?  I have no doubts that the more people you test, the more positives you will find, and many if not most of them had or have little or no symptoms.

Under control my ar%e, but hey lets open up to the world in 2 weeks.

Anutin convinced the UK that infections are dropping drastically, managed by only citing one testing method.

Amazing Thailand.

Certainly Hua Hin has been busier of late, especially at weekends, there often seems to be an increase in Covid infections shortly afterwards, I'm sure it's coincidental.

 

I suspect this pattern is something we're going to have to live with.

Am I the only one to resent Cigna appearing in most Covid items-are they sponsoring?

There were 3,000 severe cases reported today in Thailand.

 

Those mild cases can infect the next person who may need to be hospitalized.

no, definitely not correct. I would say less than half of people have had any type of vaccine as yet in Hua hin. Whether that be because people don’t want it or because people can’t get it here yet I can’t really comment on but for sure, the number will not be 90+ of people vaccinated here.
