I look forward to that graph soon. All countries worldwide have travel restrictions. Temporarely halting entry foreigners is a smart move. What happened in yr life to chose to live in a new country yet be so cynical about yr new home country. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read the Bangkok Post article about Thai returnees from abroad and you will see how wrong you are No, but there has been an uptick in racial stigma towards foreigners, since the Han Chinese communists running the country, have managed to misinform many that it wasn’t from Wuhan, but dirty western trash, I go into the Naff 7-11 every day last week, 3 times some assistant, makes an excuse, and leaves the till, then a less racist staff, just does the simple job, went into the mall supermarket, yesterday, the other checkout were giggling, thinking ‘phew’ dirty foreigner didn’t come on our till, the other day, walking in to Bangkok bank, Thais okay, but dirty foreigner, has to sign a form stating, I am not diseased, no virus symptoms, and give phone number and signature, before I can use the service, you see, when you control over many of the population like this, you can see why they are keeping it in lockdown, it serves their Han Chinese gangster communist propaganda 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunder26 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 17 minutes ago, Mark1066 said: Where in the world are they doing mass testing? In the UK, for example, the guidelines recommend staying at home if you have symptoms. It's not possible for ordinary people to get tested there unless they are exhibiting severe symptoms. South Korea, Germany and Russia do extensive testing. By doing that you can see the enemy. If you don't do enough testing you are fighting against the windmills. That's the mistake most counties make. Thailand chose the latter. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkerN Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 10pm to 4pm is the time when the local hoons get kitted out and do whatever the local hoons do - probably none of it is exactly legal. This is what the government wanted to do anyway so it could gain control over the local hoons, COVID-19 jut presented an opportunity, and you know what Thais are like with opportunities...

Logosone Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 9 minutes ago, Mark1066 said: I'm not assuming anything. I was answering a post that suggested a mortality rate of under .5% means we should just get on with life and worry about those who don't die. It wasn't my figure. By the way, the biophysicist you quoted also stated that the thousand or so new cases a day being reported in Iran last week suggested that they were over the halfway mark there as far as the spread of the virus was concerned. Iran reported nearly three thousand new cases yesterday and the same again so far today, so I'd take his opinion with a large pinch of salt. I wasn't suggesting you came up with the figure. You came up with the statement though that 0.5% would mean 39 million dead. This does assume a linear growth of virus tranmission. It doesn't work that way. You can't assume the number of new infections is super linear because most people only meet a limited handful of people every day. You are of course right to keep an eye on the prediction Levitt made, we shall see if he's right about the exact figure again, as he was with China. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what Aussies do (and I know whereof I speak). They speak English badly. Still, look on the bright side: they're a bit behind the game line on woke. but if they want to say 'you' they say 'you' and not u, so that's a plus. Swings and roundabouts.

jacob29 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 14 minutes ago, Thunder26 said: I agree with you, but I start doubting that these draconian measures that destroy Thai economy and many lives are indeed necessary with such a small number of cases that they are reporting. It doesn't make sense for 100 people infected a day to stop the whole economy. I've been following this virus from day one. And now I'm having seconds thoughts. I figure they understand as well as we do, that testing hasn't been adequate, and the case count is expected to be somewhat higher. If the quarantine has to happen at some point (and let's be realistic, it probably does, no country has yet met success with half measures), better to do it early rather than later.

Why just wait until things could become even worse? better to act now by implementing some strict rules like South Korea did Korea didn't implement strict rules. They did massive testing and the government was very open and honest about things and educated the people, who, having proper knowledge and a sense of civic duty, complied with the requests. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be trebling for all we know , figures are meaningless without wholesale testing. Its moot anyway , the measures introduced are the same regardless of the official numbers of cases or deaths. If ' ignorance is bliss ' is a motto that appeals , then the Thai approach is fine. 2 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 If anyone thinks this will be over by end April, think again, no not May, that's maybe end June. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
