Popular Post Kadilo Posted November 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2021 Encouraging to see a reduction in the death numbers again yesterday and over the past weeks trend following an uptick over the past couple of days. Latest official data from the worldometer ranking table for deaths/million of population over the past 7 days, including yesterday’s numbers, shows Thailand drop four places to 73rd the world, 29 places below the UK. Same table shows Thailand drop one place to 15th in Asia, 5 places below the Philippines and 2 places above Vietnam. Good to see the trend in the number of deaths over the past week fall to 6 deaths/million of population, down 1% from yesterday over the 7 day period, with the number of official infections also falling 8% 73 Thailand 56,874 62,034 -8% 812 453 459 -1% 6 70,035,975 https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/weekly-trends/#weekly_table 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An interesting number. Being that someone on here keeps posting where Thailand lies globally on deaths overall it is I believe is pertinent to mention that Thailand's official death toll on April 1 was 96. That's 19,407 deaths in 8 months or an average 2,434 a month or an average of around 80 per day. This is around 5,000 more than the UK in the same period. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is good but not great. Testing needs to be done on a wider basis as well. Vaccinations may be helping, but then only 40% or so are double vaccinated. Glad to see they are vaccinating more on a daily basis. A friend in the north just got his first vaccination and his Thai wife is waiting on her Moderna. Shame the game this government played with the MRNA vaccines and not assisting in obtaining them. The USA is still sitting on this vaccines they promised Thailand because the paperwork still has not been done. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point it was a gusstimate and not a good one. It's as of yesterday's UK and Thai numbers Thailand recorded 4,411 more deaths than the UK. Around 4.5K would have been a better guesstimate. Still doesn't change the fact that Thailand had more deaths than the UK in the same period. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame the game this government played with the MRNA vaccines and not assisting in obtaining them. The USA is still sitting on this vaccines they promised Thailand because the paperwork still has not been done. Its a very slow ride down with the burden on the health service still strained to high levels which in turn means that many patients who would normally be using the services of local hospitals have to wait. For some perspective, Thailand still has 43,069 being treated in real hospitals, which is even higher than the US at 41,329, the UK at 9,160 and Malaysia at just 4,622. The official covid deaths in Thailand are still trending up from last week's rolling average however they should head down again soon hopefully. The true measure of mortality of course the excess deaths despite being far higher than official covid deaths is also trending down showing a sure sign the worst is/should be over. It does seem that the target of 100 million doses of vaccine to be administered by the end of the year should be achieved although that also includes 3rd doses. A great milestone when that does happen but could have been so much quicker had it not been for the incompetence in the vaccine procurement and the ongoing missteps with vaccine donations such as the US one still waiting. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worrab Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Nice to see another drop from the previous figure of 94. Let's hope this trend can continue here and in other provinces. Health officials on Saturday (Nov 6) reported 82 new COVID-19 cases, 30 were found in Hua Hin. Elsewhere in the province, 28 cases were found in Pranburi, 5 cases in Sam Roi Yot, 1 case in Kuiburi, zero cases found in Thap Sakae, zero cases in Bang Saphan, 2 cases in Bang Saphan Noi, and 16 cases in Mueang Prachuap Khiri Khan.

But hang on, just yesterday I think it was, you said that the downward trend had finished and we were on a long slow upward trend again. Not having a go because in reality yesterday was up, today is down. We have this daily thread discussing case numbers (mainly), I point out in some places they've stopped providing daily briefings, it only adds to the fear factor and encouragement of amateur epidemiologists. I actually agree with one of your previous theories were we were more or less flatlining around 10k. Also not defending the Thai authorities but I do think some of our judgement based solely on limited data and without embedded knowledge (remembering that a lot of what is happening is in Thai which most of us I reckon would be limited in) of the practices and policies being carried out are a bit harsh. What I've seen of our local authorities in the village is that they do a pretty good job with limited resources, Bangkok is probably different. There wouldn't be a country in the world that could hold its head up against all criticism. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 5 day trend in official cases was indeed rising and had been for 5 days as you quite rightly pointed out, and again as you point out today it it went down, ie a slow bumpy ride down which is exactly whats its been in the overall trend.
