This statement says a lot about the testing in Samut Sakhon IMO There appears to be 10 Times the number of Migrant workers positive than Thais, which means they are not testing the Thai Residents so much. Also there are more Thais positive while being in Hospital which says the Migrants are nor being Hospitalised. I suppose its all about getting things sorted by Chinese New Year to keep the Gravy Train running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarFlungFalang Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Doesn't seem to be much adherence to the governments covid social distancing rule at the government covid testing in the photo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4reaL Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Numbers must be much higher all over the country than are being reported if this small snapshot of testing is producing this many positives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't say that too loudly, you'll have the 'stop bashing Thailand' crew rubbishing the obvious lack of testing. It seems these migrants are completely cut off from the rest of the population; they never go out to eat, buy food, go shopping or drink in a bar. Or, Thai people are just naturally immune? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
