webfact Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 File photo: REUTERS Thailand on Thursday (November 4) reported 7,982 new COVID-19 cases, 8,029 recoveries and 68 additional deaths over the past 24 hours. ▶︎ Total infections since April 1: 1,914,561 ▶︎ Total recoveries since since April 1: 1,799,066 Thursday’s cases bring the total number of COVID-19 infections in Thailand to 1,943,424 with 19,462 deaths. The news comes as only six Covid-19 infections out of 4,510 tourists, a low 0.13 percent, were found in the past three days since the launch of the country reopening, Thailand’s Public Health Ministry reported November 3rd. Dr. Sumanee Watcharasin, Director of Risk Communication and Health Behavior Development Bureau of the Ministry of Public Health, revealed to the Associated Press that a total of 4,510 people have entered the country on international flights since November 1st. TPN media notes that different Thai officials have given different numbers in terms of arrivals of international foreign tourists, as well as different departments, over the past few days but this appears to be the most realistic estimate so far.

Double jabbed maybe trippled, PCR tested (?) so you would expect low numbers. The problem lies with the Thai populace which has low vaccination rates and infections way above the 'official' numbers due to an extreme lack of testing. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThailandRyan Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Excess mortality is a term used in epidemiology and public health that refers to the number of deaths from all causes during a crisis above and beyond what we would have expected to see under ‘normal’ conditions.1 In this case, we’re interested in how the number of deaths during the COVID-19 pandemic compares to the deaths we would have expected had the pandemic not occurred — a crucial quantity that cannot be known but can be estimated in several ways. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Kadilo Posted November 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) Good to see official number of recoveries still exceeding news cases and numbers in serious condition and on ventilators continue to fall. Latest official data from the worldometer ranking table for deaths/million of population over the past 7 days, including yesterday’s numbers, shows Thailand up one place at 68in the world, 27 places below the UK. Same table shows Thailand remain at 14th in Asia, 4 places below the Philippines and 4 places above Vietnam. The trend in the number of deaths over the past week is at 7 deaths/million of population, up 8% from yesterday over the 7 day period, with the number of official infections also falling 5% 68 Thailand 60,127 63,463 -5% 859 472 436 +8% 7 70,034,544 Edited November 4, 2021 by Kadilo 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The raw death counts used in calculating excess deaths are certainly not based on an educated guess, they are based on the actual deaths in a given year which are reported to WHO by the respective countries and governments, Thailand's official deaths and statistics going back to 2015 to present are here https://stat.bora.dopa.go.th/stat/statnew/statMenu/newStat/home.php and here https://github.com/owid/covid-19-data/tree/master/public/data/excess_mortality Edited November 4, 2021 by Bkk Brian 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet she was released as recovered and told to isolate at home for two more weeks, and take the medication they discharged her with.......sound recovered to you, nope just recovered enough to be discharged Edited November 4, 2021 by ThailandRyan 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
