anchadian Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 https://twitter.com/ThaiEnquirer/status/1391273905843630080 The CCSA conducted 220,406 proactive tests in Bangkok & surrounding provinces between April 1 - May 8 which resulted in 4,024 cases. On average, they are conducting more than 8,000 proactive tests & would found at least 250 per day. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what you said "Let's say all the numbers are faked." That does not equate to people saying the numbers are faked, its you making a hypothetical statement. Again I've not seen anyone saying they are throwing out fake numbers, unrealistic due to testing constraints but not fake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abrahamzvi Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 The trouble is that the situation with private hospitals is still unclear. Bangkok Hospital, for example, won't even accept registration, as they say that they don't know when they will be able to have the vaccination. I really don't mind the costs, as long as I can get vaccinated, and soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is my Pfizer vaccine going to be any different in October from how it is now, other than being 4 months older and thus probably less effective? Oh wait I forgot... I have no choice but come to Thailand and therefore can be tapped for the extra expense. But the tourists wouldn't stand for it and so their money would go elsewhere. There's no science involved in any of this. It's about milking the cash cows. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a difference when someone says that they do not believe the numbers being presented to them saying the numbers are fake. Please understand that many of us still do not believe the numbers are accurate, however with saying that the numbers presented as well as the numbers tested have remained consistent with swings up and down and are indicative that if many more are tested the numbers will swing upwards. Post a link to a posters post showing that the numbers are faked please. There may be one or two out there I am sure you can find, but then it's not myself that has called them out but you, so the burden of proof is upon you to show your not just talking trash and posting without having facts.

Wonder what the backlog is when I know of other countries that can process 50,000 tests a day. Are there that few labs that can be certified, and is only the MOPH lab processing these tests.

In the UK Covid is being waved goodbye and people beleive normality is just around the corner. In Thailand a potential armaggedon awaits. It is the vaccination rates that make the difference. United Kingdom ???????? 128,000 deaths Thailand ???????? 382 deaths. (Yesterday's figures. ) https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/deaths I know where life has been more normal during the pandemic. And now, after loosing 336 times more people than Thailand (out of a similar size population and of course with many times over the financial, scientific, technological, governmental, and manufacturing resources) Britons can begin to return to normal. Well done UK. Edited May 9, 2021 by Pattaya Spotter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both have similar populations and eerily similar infection and death numbers in the last week. In the UK Covid is being waved goodbye and people beleive normality is just around the corner. In Thailand a potential armaggedon awaits. It is the vaccination rates that make the difference. Meanwhile, in Texas 75,000 rock up for a boxing match. The difference between the 2 countries being that although all countries under report, for a variety of reasons, the under reporting in Thailand is much greater than in the UK. Far better to look at trends. Cases rising in Thailand (record highs), falling in the UK (lowest figures this year). Texas? Still in the grip of Trump mania, I fear there's no hope for them. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchadian Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) will increase the number of COVID-19 vaccination stations in Bangkok to 25, to speed up inoculations as the capital logged 1,112 new COVID-19 cases yesterday, the highest daily figure recorded so far. Bangkok Governor Aswin Kwanmuang said the BMA and the Thai Chamber of Commerce have arranged the setting up of 14 vaccination sites outside hospitals.The first site will be opened at Central Plaza Lad Phrao shopping center on Wednesday (12 May).

Popular Post ukrules Posted May 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 9, 2021 42 minutes ago, ThailandRyan said: Please understand that many of us still do not believe the numbers are accurate The numbers are never accurate, anywhere, ever. It's simply not possible to get accurate numbers during an outbreak unless you test everybody which is never done. Test results are merely a reflection of the testing done, you could perhaps approach accuracy if you're doing truly large scale mass testing but that itself brings a new set of problems, people who have already recovered still have remnants of virus in their body and these can and do show up on tests. At one point in the UK the government announced in one of the daily briefings last year that they believe they're only detecting about 5% of cases with testing so they pretty much worked on the assumption that the real unknown number of infected was 20 times higher than those detected. I suspect a problem in Thailand is that they believe they're finding either all or nearly all of the cases. This is a flaw in their thinking. No public health expert will think this and they will for sure know the situation. This years version of the virus appears to spread slightly faster (less than double) when compared to last years version which seems to be faster than they can contain it - so there will inevitably be a large scale outbreak. We haven't seen a large scale outbreak in Thailand yet, it's still getting started. 4 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
