The PPHO report, marked as accurate as of 8pm last night,

A friend of mine who rooms with a nurse working at one of the islands major hospitals has said that the published number of infections in Phuket, is understated quite considerably, and purposely so to enable the island to open up again.

 

I have no reason to doubt her word, and it would not be unusual for this to occur, after all TIT.

I have no reason to doubt what authorities are publishing but I still do.
