snoop1130 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Health Minister Confirms COVID Control BANGKOK, Dec 3 (TNA) — Deputy Prime Minister/Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said the new COVID-19 situation was under control and there had not been the second wave of the disease but more measures to ease lockdowns must be delayed. He was responding to concerns resulting from 10 COVID-infected Thai women who returned from work in Myanmar’s Tachileik border town opposite Chiang Rai province, dodged quarantine at the border and traveled inside the country. “The present situation is controllable and it is not the second wave. Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai do not need a lockdown. Transmission has been contained but the time for lockdown easing must be put off pending evaluation of situations in border areas,” Mr Anutin said.

webfact Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Health officials confident Covid-19 situation in north under control File Photo Health authorities expressed confidence today that the Covid-19 situation in the northern provinces of Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai are under control despite the recent return of 10 Thais from neighbouring Myanmar who tested positive. Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, meanwhile, played down fears that there could be a second wave of the pandemic. However, a medical expert warned that the country needs to be put on high alert for a potential second wave of the pandemic following what happened in the two provinces. Speaking at a press conference, Dr Kiatiphume Wongrajit, the permanent secretary of the Public Health Ministry, said local health officials had all necessary information regarding the returnees’ whereabouts and timelines of their movement.

Stupid is as stupid does. These guys can not be this thick or can they be? 'Thick' is a nice way to describe these guys. I think a proper word to describe this lot is still being coined. Meanwhile, Anutin can share laurels with his Malaysian counterpart. At the start of the second wave in Malaysia, their health minister said - publicly - that drinking warm water will help kill the virus. Or something like that. And this guy is apparently a real doctor with an actual practice! I am not kidding - check this out. He's now known as the 'Warm Water Minister'. Of course, as in most SEA countries, ministers get to keep their jobs despite being proven stupid beyond reasonable doubt: https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2020/03/20/health-minister039s-039warm-water-method039-to-kill-coronavirus-questioned Edited December 4, 2020 by outsider 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will not catch everyone. Catch it on the plane or in quarantine. Pre flight test does not help. One Australia state just announced it's first domestic case in 29(?) days. A cleaner at a quarantine hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
