You're going down a rabbit hole and losing yourself, it plainly obvious that you've not read anything and have your own agenda.

 

Why would the government downplay and under count covid deaths and cases here in Thailand?

The midweek climb as unfortunately expected.  Can not hope for anything more I guess.  

 

Boots near me yesterday had a line out the door with folks buying ATK tests. That tells me loads in itself.

Its not possible to purchase an ATK Test Kit from any outlet in my local Village.

How far are you from town.....You can always buy them on-line from boots or watson and have them sent.

Let me put it in even simpler terms for you:

 

You're previous assertion that Thailand is overplaying the numbers of cases and deaths is just plain wrong.

Yet your still going down the rabbit hole.  The number hospitalized is listed in an above post, those in critical/serious condition and those intubated.  You seem to believe that the listed deaths are from those who had Covid, but what your missing is these are the ones who died from Covid as I stated before. 

 

Do yourself a favor and stop trying to compare Thailand with your view of other countries reporting. The Covid cases are those who tested positive via PCR, the added ATK tests are ones that do not require being hospitalized while the Majority of the PCR tested do.  

Today's edition of the MoPH past two weeks COVID trends chart, March 17-30. Focus on the trends vs. the daily fluctuations.

 

From left to right below:

daily count of COVID cases hospitalized in serious condition, daily count of intubated COVID patients, daily count of reported new COVID deaths, and 14-day running average of daily new COVID cases.

And in small red type at the bottom of the middle graph, it's indicating that 81 of today's reported 87 COVID deaths (93%) occurred in individuals who had NOT received a COVID booster vaccine dose.

Try as some people might they just can not keep from inserting their feet into their mouths and this Government will never let anyone outdo them....

This is Surin province's COVID case count since the beginning of the year, including daily totals for the past week. The red colored daily totals reflect case increases that day.

It's a fair point.  The answer is we just don't have it. And yes, it does stop us making an informed decision.

 

I'm not sure it matters that much- the point is human beings are dying of it.  If you want my opinion, it's probably mostly frail, often unvaccinated elderly people.  And although Omicron deaths are in the ball park of the usual seasonal respiratory virus ailments they are still on the very high side in this cohort.

You mean there is a temporary shortage, or is there a village policy prohibiting sales of ATKs?
