Thailand on Wednesday (November 3) reported 7,679 new COVID-19 cases, 8,482 recoveries and 56 additional deaths over the past 24 hours. 

 

▶︎ Total infections since April 1: 1,906,579

▶︎ Total recoveries since since April 1: 1,791,037

 

Wednesday’s cases bring the total number of COVID-19 infections in Thailand to 1,935,442 with 19,394 deaths.

 

The news comes as the Thammasat University field hospital has abandoned its plan to accept a donation of 1.5 million doses of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine from Poland. The university has failed to obtain an official letter, from the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs, confirming its status as the Thai government’s official representative for receipt of the vaccine donation.

 

The field hospital said in its update yesterday (Monday) that it had made all the preparations to facilitate the delivery of the vaccine from Poland, including logistic expenses, such as booking a flight from Poland on October 28th, freight, insurance and storage, as required by the donor, which also requires a formal confirmation from a Thai government agency that Thammasat University is the official representative for the receipt of the vaccine.

Slight uptick, and still running around the 10k range for new cases including the ATK tests.  More provinces added to the watch list as cases build in them, and then certain restrictions kept in place. Prison numbers as they porpoise up and down it appears, and yet I still can not recall seeing the 1k cases discussed last week as being added.

 

Thailand is at 11th for the past 7 day average of cases. and still averaging 7 deaths per million of population.

The covid situation here has failed to impress this think tank.

 

Bangkok fails to make top 50 listing for Covid safety

 

According to the report, 72 cities, including Bangkok, had been analysed in 114 indicators across five categories of pandemic responses: economic resiliency, governance, healthcare, quarantine and vaccinations.

 

The DKA said Bangkok faced its greatest crisis in the second quarter this year due to air travel restrictions and quarantine. The analytical agency also pointed out that the city’s economy was fragile even though the country has been reopened to foreign travellers.

Why this particular 56. I would think no different to those vulnerable groups previously identified.

Hopefully no more pregnant women been too many of those and for some reasons quite a few babies with no underlying conditions. It would be interesting to get vaccination status I agree.

Thailand’s first case of severe side effects after receiving Pfizer jab recovering well

 

The girl had been admitted to hospital the previous day, after she developed the symptoms, and was immediately given high flow oxygen therapy and antibiotics.

After a thorough examination, the institute said that the girl was physically under-developed and much smaller than other girls of her age, has a Kyphosis and an abnormal body structure, which may have an impact on her lung function.

 

Director of the Division of Epidemiology at the Disease Control Department Dr. Chakkarat Pittayawonganon, assured the public that the Pfizer vaccine is safe and only a handful of cases of side effects have been reported, out of over two million students, aged 12-18, who have received the vaccine.

Its absolutely disgraceful.

2.5 Million doses of " Free Vaccine " that have been refused because a piece of Paper was not signed by some guy in Government.

And Thailand still only has 43 % fully vaxxed , and 59 % with a single shot.

The Thai people deserve better than this

Vaccine hesitancy in the South.........

 

Health workers in Pattani visit residents at their homes and encourage them to get vaccinated against COVID-19. Officials say thousands in Pattani have declined to get the shot so far, their anxiety largely driven by rumors of deaths and illness associated with the vaccine.
