Public health specialists believe that there are factors that have helped reduce the R(0) or rate of infection of the virus in Thailand, Laos and Vietnam - possible factors include climate (heat and humidity lower transmission), proximity to China may have led to some levels of resistence to the virus due to earlier versions coming through

The first outbreak was in China which would have been in an area that hadn't seen it before, before that we know nothing - not yet.

 

It's quite likely that the major outbreak happened in a place completely naive to the virus.

 

I'm still waiting for the results on the expedition to the caves looking for similar viruses in the bats of Chanthaburi....nothing but mysterious silence since June on this.

Thailand most certainly top 5 in the world for Covid response. 
It will be interesting to know the final winner once Covid has finished.

How is that recovery even possible when the rest of the people in the world like the USA, the UK et al are in desperate financial straits, and are in no position to travel even if they could?

The return of airline industry is not going to be quickly accomplished if at all.

Bearing these factors in mind, how is this return of tourists to any SE Asia country possible...

Even if an effective safe vaccine is found.... it will be months if not years before safe travel willl be possible.

Who is this guy trying to fool? 

China is the winner by a country mile

While Thailand did do a very good job in containing the virus, until their paranoia about the virus dies down a little and the quarantine is removed I don't though see tourism recovering quickly.

not "paranoia" but just common sense.

 

for paranoia delusion a failed covid response and crazy conspiracy theories you have to go to ....

Wish we had leaders like these in the US. Thankfully Joe will follow suit and LISTEN to the science 

isnt it true! The Thai leaders completely listened to science and didnt abuse it for political reasons.  What a complete shame for Trump to even make wearing a mask into a culture war.
