He believes that new infections will not, however, increase substantially, as has been the case in the past, but stressed the need for vaccinations and compliance with basic safety measures, such as wearing face masks at all times while outdoors and maintaining social distancing.

ikke1959 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 as they are hoing to do ATK tests for incoming tourists, it is sure that the cases will go down, and the ATK cases go up, but that will not be counted...

Bkk Brian Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Weekly WHO Thailand update from 25th Nov Vaccination coverage in Thailand is increasing with RTG targets of 80% first dose and 70% second dose having been reached at national level. However, vaccination coverage is still too low in some vulnerable groups, and there are significant differences in vaccination rates across all of Thailand’s seventy-seven provinces. • These gaps in vaccination are important, because they allow pockets of transmission to continue at a local level. The lesson from Europe should inform us that unless we remain vigilant, the confluence of localised low vaccination rates, poor adherence with protective measures and the travel and mass gatherings we will likely to see in the next 4-6 weeks can be a recipe for a rebound in COVID-19. • It is therefore essential that as Thailand continues to re-open, we all do everything we can, all of the time, to protect ourselves and families. COVID-19 is not yet beaten in Thailand. https://www.who.int/thailand/emergencies/novel-coronavirus-2019/situation-reports 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bkk Brian Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Not inspiring much confidence when he's not even got the correct number of people infected with the new variant Omicron right, its far more than 22! Thailand ready to tackle new Covid-19 variant, says deputy PM Deputy Prime Minister Supattanapong Punmeechaow said the government was monitoring the situation but is not too worried because so far only 22 people have been found infected by this variant. However, he said, all public health measures, ranging from vaccination and medicines to medical equipment, are being prepared to deal with new infections. Supattanapong also said Thailand could ask for the remaining batches of Covid-19 vaccines to be adjusted to fight the new variant. https://www.nationthailand.com/in-focus/40009334 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This new variant which is now called " Omicron " seems to be a real beast. It has 30 different mutations on the protein Spikes and over 50 other mutations within its structure.

The WHO and medical Professionals World Wide really need to get to grips with this thing, and quickly, or Delta could possibly look like a Head Cold. Yes the vaccine evasion and less protection from previous infection is the main worry along of course with the potential for it to overtake easily the current transmissibility of Delta. A top UK health official warned that vaccines would "almost certainly" be less effective against the new variant. The WHO said the number of cases of this variant, initially named B.1.1.529, appeared to be increasing in almost all of South Africa's provinces. The fact that the case in Belgium was found from a traveller who had returned from Egypt and Turkey sort of tells you that its in many countries already. Not much good to say about it at the moment, have to wait and see now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The door to return to the US, at least for me, will not close, unless they shut out their own citizens it's the return that might be dicey and may cost me two weeks of quarantine if it reverts back. If that happens I will have to head to Phuket and do a beach stint if that's still in play. Talk about a final nail in the high season coffin if that happens. Thailand will be utterly sunk at that point. Edited November 27, 2021 by ThailandRyan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
