Some of them will be found to be positive. Not all of them obey the isolation rules.

Because this is not about the numbers or the virus, this is about control and the government are seeing how far they can push people before they start to push back. In reality, there is no virus related reasons for the state of emergency to be extended. 36 2 5 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that many Thais have had enough. I am seeing fewer Thais wearing masks and if they do it's either round the chin or hanging off 1 ear. (The majority are still wearing one though). I am seeing more gatherings of Thais than there were a few weeks back. Road traffic seems as heavy as it was before. I don't know whether Thais are washing their hands or not, I don't tend to follow them into the bathroom. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fearmongerer like to show these deaths numbers but they forget to specify that the vast majority were people who were going to die anyway. Average age of deaths is 80 years old with multiple comorbidities, a very high percentage of the deaths in the west were in nursing homes. Try comparing life expectancy in Thailand with many western countries. 4 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just talking to a thai friend, and she said she thought it was about control. Or, they are lying about the numbers. The behavior makes no sense. Say the disease is crushed and enact new tracking systems that make huge crowds at entrances to various malls and stores which violate social distancing when the old system of temp checks and hand sanitizer seemed quick and effective. It seems designed to increase infections which then need to be tracked. Maybe it's just for show. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps their statements are incomplete - maybe they should read "number of new cases, zero; number of deaths, zero; number of tests completed, zero". Then the lockdown is here forever. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
