Yes the numbers in Thailand are getting higher again, and even if less people are dying, does not mean that

the pandemic is over. Posters on this forum are people who do not have to work for a living, and not paid if they get sick, that is clear to 

see.    It will be a good day when this pandemic is over, around the world, but in a lot of countries people are getting sick

and the COVID numbers are rising a lot.   Masking is being relaxed in most places in Canada, until recently, but the smart people

are still wearing them, and being cautious. The red necks and idiots are still not getting vaccinated, or masking etc., and 

a lot of those types are still ending up in the hospitals. I feel very sorry for the Doctors and nurses around the world

that have been working so hard and for so long in dealing with this pandemic. I can imagine that a lot of them will

retire early from burn out because of this pandemic.  All I can say is good luck to all of you. I have 5 family member presently

sick with COVID, and 3 of them say it is not at all like any flu that they have had in the past. My older sister has been recovering

and 3 weeks after she got COVID, she still has many days with not strength, and aches in her joints. She is only happy

that she had her 3 Moderna shots.
