snoop1130 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 BANGKOK, Oct 11 (TNA) – Southern border provinces face worse COVID-19 outbreaks than greater Bangkok and the Center for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) urged local people to seek vaccinations because 60% of new fatalities in the far South never received a COVID-19 jab. CCSA’s assistant spokesperson Dr. Apisamai Srirangson said a small number of people in southern border provinces had been vaccinated against COVID-19. The COVID-19 infection rate was 22% in southern border provinces while the rate in greater Bangkok stood at 19%, she said.

Just as I would add that the article said the infection rate was 19 vs 22 %. Not a big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Is the far south getting their vaccines, but not wanting them? I would like to hear the whole story behind the situation. If it is because they are Muslim and do not want the vaccines, well I guess they are all free to die, just like a few of my relatives that will not get the vaccine here in Canada. I will never understand why people have had vaccines as children for many diseases, but now as adults, they will not. Geezer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcelV Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 I feel saddened by what has happened to my fellow residents in the deep south. I pray to God that people can accept the available vaccines in their hearts and minds and that the provinces may reopen to tourists soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unblocktheplanet Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 What does "infection rate" mean? Percentage of positive cases from active testing, walk-in testing, ATK? (Yikes--percentage in the general population?!?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not very clear I agree but in this instance they are referring to the daily positive case count of all PCR tests. The southern border provinces now make up a total of 22% of daily cases as opposed to Bangkok and its 5 bordering Provinces which make up 19%.. The rest is made up of all other Provinces 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
