Thailand on Friday (January 21) reported 8,640 new COVID-19 cases, 8,641 recoveries and 13 additional deaths over the past 24 hours. 

 

▶︎ Infections outside prisons: 8,445. Prisons: 195

▶︎ Recoveries: 8,641

 

Friday’s cases bring the total number of COVID-19 infections in Thailand to 2,361,702 with 22,000 deaths.

 

The news comes as the Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) has agreed to resume registration for the currently suspended quarantine-free entry program, known as “Test and Go”, from February 1st. It will also allow eateries in “sandbox” provinces and COVID-19 “high surveillance” provinces to serve alcohol up to 11pm, instead of 9 pm, from January 24th onwards according to CCSA spokesman Dr. Taweesin Visanuyothin.

 

However, to open, the eateries must meet the SHA Plus or the Stop COVID  2 Plus standard and comply with the COVID Free Setting measure. Pubs, bars and other entertainment venues are to remain closed, but they are allowed to open as eateries and when they meet such requirements.

Appears that we are seeing an end if the week bump upwards.  Hoping that it is truly being reported transparently, but then I think we know the truth already as testing has always been abysmal.

Except BkkBrians bar chart looks nothing like what the rest of the world has experienced. Maybe it will shoot up in the next week or two?

A student was seeking advice as to what she should do in case she catches COVID-19 and is unable to take exams. In response, the officer said, “Take it next year or go for other majors that don’t require test results.”

I notice from this graphic that the trends still seems to be slightly upwards if ATK is taken into consideration.

If the two " abnormal " reports on 11 .06 and 18 .06 are removed from the equation.

Throughout the recent outbreaks I have noticed these " abnormally low " reports which appear in the rise of the Infections, which seem to me to suggest they are completely spurious, and fictitious.
