I'd rather be here than back home in Australia Could you elaborate on the good decisions, please? Enough testing? Distribution of free masks? Improve the statistics? Enlarge the hospital facilities with ICU? Or implement overshooting measures and kill the rest of life in the economy? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look forward to that graph soon. Talking of that, Ai Anutin has been quiet for a few days.

Almer Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I would expect to see many many Arrests, the feral youths will not stay in, and there patents/ keeper will encourage them, Thailand you have a chance to salvage this but leave it any longer and trouble will present itself. I liken-it to a runaway train, a block of wood will stop it early but when it gathers speed, stand back and stay inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the numbers given up to now are pathetic and an insult to even the stupidest in society. This curfew will just squeeze the life out of the people even more. The country is gonna be in a dreadful state when this thing is declared over and borders open, etc again. If the economy doesn't collapse completely i'll be amazed A little late coming , but I applaud the decision its is most definitely pointing us in the right direction in this battle.

If I already have the virus and stay home, I cant give it to anyone else !!!! If isolating the infected stops the spread, then isolating everyone will also stop the spread Obviously I meant in the long term. Like I said, it will buy a short time. But eventually the curfews and lockdowns will have to stop. If you have not identified and isolated the infected by then, what will happen? You will just get further waves of infected. So in the long term curfews and lockdowns will achieve nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
