Popular Post nobodysfriend Posted November 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) 5 hours ago, webfact said: the patient from Chiang Rai is a friend of the woman who tested positive in Chiang Mai. 5 hours ago, webfact said: She began to feel better by the 24 November before returning to Thailand on the 26 November That means she was aware of being infected while she still was in Myanmar . If she was sick , she had symptoms ... that is contradictory to the following statement : 5 hours ago, webfact said: Although they showed no symptoms Anyway , they both went to work in Burma . They probably knew that this was risky , as there are many infections over there . They decided to go back to Thailand , but did not want to quarantine , so passed illegally by the green border ... They did not realize that they represented a danger to the thai society ? Selfishness paired with stupidity . Once cured , I hope that they spend some time in prison , just to teach them to be responsible .

EricTh Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) "the permanent checkpoint at the Thai-Myanmar Friendship Bridge will remain open, officials said, in order to maintain important cross border trade." I suspect this cross border trade in a night market means massage and other clandestine 'night services'? I suspect those two girls who got infected worked in these type of services. This bridge should really be closed! Edited November 30, 2020 by EricTh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mak25 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) I can imagine those infected guys were not contagious anymore when arrived in Thailand as we maybe would have read about many more cases here already few days in.

Megasin1 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 so possibly 4 crossed, not a great indictment of the Thai investigation, then everyone is expected to remember which faces were or were not on a public bus or mall, another great indictment of the track and trace and check in procedures. It all just proves that no government anywhere is capable of controlling the spread of this virus which in a weird way is strangely reassuring. I'm sure that Thailand have dropped the ball here as people have relaxed believing they were safe, but these are just the cases that you currently know about and the Government will have to act to save their hitherto untarnished reputation. A frightening time for the Thai people up t'north, however the weird reassurance is that people are people, despite whatever controls governments think they have and lets hope it stays that way ????

rabas Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) It's now been reported that 3 girls returned to Thailand because Burmese authorities imposed a midnight to 4am curfew to stop the Covid-19 outbreak. And, at least two of the girls had symptoms in Burma so clearly knew the situation! Edit: The 4 girls seems to be a different case.

Governments should not be blamed, people should. If you cant work out what is best for yourself after receiving advice from THE MEDICAL PROFESSION, yeah, maybe via govt broadcasts publicly, you need a shake if you think the govt are here for this sort of thing. I hear many attacks on leaders who are accused of flip flopping but the flip flopping often comes 1st from the medical profession. I use the word "you" generally, not personally and I agree with your statement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomchaiCNX Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 2 hours ago, Emdog said: paranoia is "Paranoia is a thought process that causes you to have an irrational suspicion or mistrust of others." Those of us who have lived here long enough have very rational suspicion of those in charge, be they cops, border guards, politicians, etc. We can trust them to take a suitable payoff to look the other way... Fear leading to taking steps to alleviate that fear is different. 260,000+ of my countrymen and women are dead, directly or indirectly, because too many people were unwilling to acknowledge the danger and take appropriate measures. Did you complain to the Chinese embassy? What was their answer? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonaldBattles Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 7 hours ago, RotBenz8888 said: Security stepped up again, is it the fifth time now? How many levels do they have? It is my opinion without proof that these two ladies entered Tachilek Burma illegally. They stayed in a Burmese hotel together for 6 days before they returned illegally. One went to Chiang Mai and the other checked in to the Bangkok Chiang Rai Hospital and tested positive for the Covid 19 virus. I believe they contacted the virus in Burma. Bangkok Chiang Rai is a very expensive private hospital. Without big money you can't stay there. I suspect that they were in Burma on a business trip that lasted 6 days.
