Wednesday’s cases bring the total number of COVID-19 infections in Thailand to 2,199,061 with 21,471 deaths.

 

The news comes as Thailand has scrapped its ‘Thailand Pass’ and ‘Test & Go’ schemes due to fears over the Omicron variant of COVID-19. 

 

Thailand’s Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-O-Cha has ordered the immediate suspension of new registrations for Thailand Pass and at the same reinstated mandatory quarantine effective immediately.

 

The PM announced on Tuesday afternoon that Test & Go will be put on hold until at least January 4, 2022.

There's that midweek upwards bump of cases. However those prison cases have never truly made the case list, I wonder what the play there is?

 

I also do not see a list breakdown of Omicron cases, which in many countries has already overtaken the Delta cases.

It is nice to see the Critical care cases and those on ventilators declining.  The deaths are also slowly dropping.  Wonder what the excess death rate is so far this year.

I also noticed deaths seem to be pretty constant over the last 2 weeks, somewhat different curve to infections. Would expect deaths to follow infection curve albeit with a couple weeks lag.

Khon Kaen province reports its first two Omicron cases

 

He told a press conference that the two cases are a married couple who live in another north-eastern province, Kalasin, who returned from a visit to Belgium on December 10th and entered minimal state quarantine, testing negative upon arrival.

 

After the brief quarantine, the couple returned to their hometown in Kalasin on a Thai Smile flight and were driven home from the airport in a relative’s car. On December 13th, both travelled to Khon Kaen to renew their passports at the provincial hall and returned to Kalasin by Khon Kaen-Mukdahan bus between 4.30pm and 6.30pm.

 

The governor also said that three days later the couple developed a fever and muscle pains and they were admitted to Kalasin hospital, where they tested positive for the Omicron variant of COVID-19.

Interesting to know how many positives they are sequencing and is it just overseas arrivals or they checking homegrown positives too?

6 days from arriving in country until positive test, timelines seem to be getting longer, Chang Rai man was six or seven days, possible infection from Thailand?
