But, I guess an agrarian economy can stay locked down forever. don't need anything from outside to survive.

That's not what I am suggesting, just saying it's inevitable. Thailand WILL see a rise in infections domestically when the borders open, it needs to deal with them accordingly. That will be the real test. Life will not return to normality until a vaccine is readily available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some viruses never die out and remain within society. The Chinese have tested a vaccine and are now trialing it on 2 million military soldiers, supposedly. The Oxford group have a working vaccine where they have created proteins that mimic the formation of the virus, that trick the body into creating antibodies. It apparently works but they are testing it's safety on humans as we speak. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JusticeGB Posted July 11, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2020 I had a Scottish friend with a cough and temperature of 39.5 centigrade. The local Government hospital said that they had no spare covid19 testing kits so sent him home with some codene pills. No test - no covid19. Simple answer as to why Thailand has low figures. He self quarantined for three weeks and luckily recovered. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very suspicious... who would have thought that people returning from countries with surging infections in the middle east would get infected by people that have covid. I mean there should be no reason why you should not also be susceptible to infection locally in a country with no active community spread... Ignore the doctors, COVID can spontaneously appear randomly without any known causes ???? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use your logic then you decouver contradictions. As far as I know, no normal tourist is allowed to enter Thailand - except diplomats, etc. "12 from Sudan", they all haven't been controlled in their country or airport of departure? The same concerning 1 patient from Bahrain and from the US, too? Unbelivable. Only farangs carried the Covid-19, Thailand, but Thailand has gone 47 days without a domestic case. Incredible. Yes, if you don't test Thais, there are no cases! Trump logic. Yes, I know, the time between the virus-infection and the -discovery takes more than 3 days. Therefore it's possible, that the virus could not yet be detected in the state of departure, but a short time later in Thailand. But, but .. that happened 47 days only in falang cases? Incredible. For me it seems the military government wants to hide a lot. The low number of cases in Thailand is no mystery. People coming into the country are tested, people who have money and symptoms get tested ... everyone else is test free but that does not mean COVID free. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are not scared of CoVid then I believe you to be a fool. I understand governments lie about anything and everything but this is not the government making a political claim, this is a worldwide consensus of independent scientists. There is another group of sheeple being manipulated by the idea that you are clever if you go back to work right now. This prevents an outbreak of the disease some call "socialism." this horrible disease results in free health care and testing for all citizens. it's horrible. 1 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geisha Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Obviously, if Covid affected people go to airports, queue up etc, buy a coffee, sit on chairs, touch tables and then the same getting on the plane, then the virus is going to spread , right ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dialemco Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 There is no explanation why reported cases of Covid so low except may be no testing many deaths go unvestigated at home as you cause etc. Now the main problem is financial forget about covid as worst world recession in living memory is occurring which needs immediate government action. Lock down is easy but unlocking means politicians are going to have to take big risks to help alleviate the downturn as unemployment is a greater danger to health and stability. On one hand politicians say stop mass tourism but only yesterday they signed contracts for a third Bangkok Airport why? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandyf Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 1 hour ago, playboy said: Those are thai people who lived or worked from another countries. To come back to Thailand they need to get approve from Thai consulate to get charter flights. So Thai consulate will ask for Covid test to be negative 72 hours and fit to fly document before allow them to catch the flight. If there were negative before flight then they are possibly negative. Asymptomatic carrier should be test as positive but does not show symptom. So there should not be any asymptomatic carrier on the flight. So the infected person had covid but did not show in blood test. When they arrived in Thailand and quarantine, the covid showed up after couple day. Now the passengers who flown with the person will catch it too? You are not quite right in what you say. A person does not become infectious until the onset of symptoms, about 5/6 days after becoming infected, with the same initial timeframe on the asymptomatic. The test is unreliable in the first few days after becoming infected. This was a major headache for countries in their testing policy. Also it is not generally a blood test but a nasal swab, which is why the test really needs symptoms to be accurate. Emirates were looking to use a blood test at check in but I think it also proved unreliable and has been abandoned. People can become infected, have a test with a negative result and then become ill at their destination, or worse still become infectious just prior to boarding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember no testing domestically equals no covid lol. Did the huge amount of testing in the UK stop Leicester from doing a second lockdown.
