Popular Post bermondburi Posted August 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 15, 2020 I'm not in Thailand, so I wouldn't know if its been in the Thai media. I asked my wife but she didn't know about it but that might not mean anything. Anyway, it was in the UK Times the other day. Thaksin and the former Leicester City boss R. I. P., invested in a UK start up called Dnanudge. They're now set to make millions as they've come up with a 90 minute C19 test. It's been described as a game hanger. Rather than waiting a day or two for results, a 90 minute wait. The UK government has placed a £160m order for around 6m tests. This could make things a lot better for all of us, and open up travel. Thank you Thaksin. Come back please. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/exiled-former-thai-leader-set-to-make-millions-from-coronavirus-treatment-nlcsqnlzm https://www.dnanudge.com/press/48/National+roll-out%3A+UK+government+places+£161m+order+for+rapid+and+reliable+DnaNudge+COVID-19+tests https://www.imperial.ac.uk/news/201073/90-minute-covid-19-tests-government-orders/ I'm guessing not widely reported in Thailand. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than enough money was not enough for him. He wanted more and more and more and that was still not enough. He gave Thai farmers a few crumbs so that he could get the cake. If he would not have been so greedy he could still be PM and maybe the whole country would love him. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bermondburi Posted August 15, 2020 Author Share Posted August 15, 2020 Anyways, putting aside the Thaksin popularity contest, a 90 minute C19 test could make a big difference to anyone wanting to travel. Imagine being tested at check-in, on arrival, at home etc etc. Could make things a lot easier and reduce the need for massive quarantine or self-isolation. Let's hope this can be rolled out successfully next month like it says in the article. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't get it the main problem was the 1% of the wealthy didn't wanted to see the mass moving from their (slavery) poverty and becoming a middle class, with the level up of the education, They knew that if this happens, it should be the end of the ''good old days'' for the thug elite runing the country for his own and only benefit. Taksin was enough clever to understand that a middle class with few money was the opportunity for everyone (Including him) to become richer and with better opportunities in life, including in the perspective of an open world. We know already who in this country prefer to keep the borders well closed and protected with all the ''systems'' in place inside making Thailand looking like a mafia clan Edited August 15, 2020 by kingofthemountain 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be at least 10 court cases which are still running against him and his criminal activities. But it seems you didn't notice. Was that not covered on Truth TV? Or did you get the red village education? It's bad enough when poor Thai farmers are uneducated. Farangs in this country should be able to get better news and don't believe everything from the red mob. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICELANDMAN Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 (edited) Thaskin lost big money now, not really the best investor out of government Thais support. RAMAT GAN, Israel (Reuters) - A newly developed saliva test aims to determine in less than a second whether or not you are infected with the novel coronavirus, Israel's largest medical center said on Thursday. Patients rinse their mouth with a saline wash and spit into a vial. Sheba, located just outside Tel Aviv, has partnered with the device's developer, Israeli firm Newsight Imaging, to bring the system to market. The company said they are in the process of getting regulatory approval. Each test costs less than 25 cents and it expects the device will eventually cost less than $200. https://www.firstpost.com/world/israeli-hospital-trials-super-quick-saliva-test-for-covid-19-8706331.html Edited August 15, 2020 by ICELANDMAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
