Province breakdown among the 327 new local cases (excluding the 7 new imported ones).

 

In looking at the province totals, you need to add together the first column of "local transmission" totals and the second column totals of "proactive case finding" in order to get the daily totals for each province.

The EN language briefing by MoPH today says that the government (CCSA) has not yet made a decision on the proposal to impose new restrictions on operating hours and alcohol sales at restaurants, bars and entertainment venues in some provinces because of COVID. No timeframe given for a decision.

Great detail on this thread. Better then the English language newspapers.

 

Absolutely. English language news reporting in Thailand is pathetic. I wonder if Thai language avoidance of details, defamation traps and other controversial subjects is similar.

My take on the vid was it's like they've taken their foot off the accelerator and the foot is now hovering over the break pedal ready to jam on the brakes.

I have different numbers for Chonburi. Interesting to read that they obviously start to test staff at entertainment venues. But the customers still can have 

Covid...

Looks like a slight difference of one case. The Pattaya News is saying 10, whereas the MoPH tally for Chonburi province says 11... 6 in one category and 5 in another. You have to be careful to look at both columns in their provinces tally charts.

 

For reasons that aren't known to me, the government continues to divide their province totals reporting into two separate categories, local cases in the first column and then "proactive case finding" in a separate column. Getting the correct total requires adding the two columns together.

Question for Anutin/Prayut

 

Your watching this, you can see whats happening, you can see whats to come and you're showing zero leadership, infact your cowering down with feeble excuses. Stand up man and do the right thing!

Each day the government does a COVID briefing, they typically also post online a new set of slides relating to COVID information. Most of the slides are in TH language, and thus not suitable for posting here.

 

But the slides do also include a couple of charts that show the recent trend lines for TH COVID cases in just number tallies or visual chart graphics, as follows:

 

The past week's daily totals for TH COVID cases (along with subtotals since mid December 2020):

And a trendline chart showing national numbers since mid-December. The chart shows two types of daily tallies, with local cases (where the person goes for treatment on their own) shown by the red line, and cases that result from the government's outreach testing shown separately by the tan colored bars. For whatever reason, they don't produce this type of chart that combines the two subsets of cases into a single total.

The slides package posted today totals almost 40 pages, as linked below.

I think it is not easy to find the right thing. You can close everything but you will have a lot of powerful enemies then. There are a lot of regulations already but you also have many that don't care. Look at the entertainment venues - for sure they are one of the most problematic areas in this Covid fight. The best decision would be to close them. But so many people will be unhappy then... So what to do? Wait, see and hope? Or close them. Or make a weak compromise by reducing the opening hours?

Excellent Covid news you can find here. It affects the government already and the police. Strange thing that the police got it so easily but not staff and customers.

Almost seems deliberately timed..

Could be or maybe they had an idea, or inkling, and actually tested someone who went somewhere they suspected and then the "Oh feces" factor hit.   Could this have been headed off by testing more people regularly, we may never know.  Be safe folks.

"A doctor from Rajavithi Hospital has tested positive for COVID-19 and is believed to have caught the virus from an night entertainment venue in Ekkamai area.
 
The hospital released a statement that a medical personnel working in the neurosurgery ward has been infected with COVID-19 and had a history of visiting night entertainment venues in Victory Monument and Ekkamai areas.
 
The Hospital Infection Control Committee has ordered the hospital to take the following measures:
• Refrain from accepting new patients and refer non-urgent cases.
• Close all operation theatres from Wednesday and only accept surgeries from April 19 onwards."
