Koh Samui sealed off until end of the month

 

Picture: Daily News

 

The mayor of Koh Samui announced today that the popular island will be effectively sealed off from tomorrow.

 

To pass in or out travellers must have a letter confirming their health from a public hospital in Thailand. This must have been issued within the last 72 hours.

 

Even then virtually anyone can be recommended for government sanctioned quarantine of 14 days if coming from a risky area or they have been in a risky situation. 

 

Ramnet Jaikwang's order is from 7th April until 30th April.

Wow another George Orwell conspiracy theorist.  We have had the "It's just the Flu", "Road Deaths are Higher", "It's the Illuminati", "5G", and now the Orwellian theorists.  Big brother has been with us for many years already, no ones trying to control you.  They are trying to get a handle on this Virus in order to contain it, seal it in, and help those who have it.  I do not buy the numbers published, but the steps being taken now should have been done a while ago......just my view, and heck I may be wrong like I always am....The travel papers are to ensure clarity, but then how do you travel if sealed. The article leaves a lot to be desired.

Where is the "theory ???
It is implemented in China already.

The UK Government is proposing the same.

And 5G is rolled out as we speak here on Samui with lightning speed.

The Thai girls have been on it for years but I think the time has now come for us guys to also get on the 2 cell phones program.  One to download all the government spy apps and leave plugged in a weird location and the other one you actually use.

I've had two for a while, one sits by the TV.

Back in the UK I had two as well (since 1990), one for my company to call (never answered), one for everyone else.

Just like any other province, with good transfers, medical staff etc. etc. can pass.

 

More explaining in Thai here, makes sense, if you use Google-translate...

Not sure where that chart is from....but Surat Thani government office....and Koh Samui government, and today's Bangkok Post article, all agree that there are a total of 6 COVID-19 cases on Samui, 3 from the same family.
