I am perfectly chilled out, thank you. 160 million cases and 3.3 million deaths certainly fills my definition of many.How would you describe the numbers of cases and deaths? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradmeister Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Every mothers nightmare .....living in a country where men traditionally hug and kiss each other whilst greeting and well wishing. ... to transfer to another country where the same cultural ritual takes place. Then being exposed to more islamic traditional males, confined in a pressurized aircraft (with poor renewed fresh air) for + 10 hours of flight time not including conditions at transfer point. One can only cringe at how many other people came off that flight ( or all and any flights) with multiple mutations of Covid. Temperature scans and questionnaires aren't enough anymore. Time to upgrade the testing immigration! Su su khrap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does not rule out the variants as the cause of such explosive outbreaks. It means "Wait, the data is almost ready." But he data is coming closer. Indian CDC Says Covid Surge Is Linked To B.1.617 Variant They also have next to no health services in many rural areas and a simple lack of ozygen is killing many. It is estimated that the number of deaths is 2.8 times higher than the offical record. Its; in the UK and USA now so we will soon see if it evades the current crop of available vaccinations.

Popular Post Patong2021 Posted May 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 11, 2021 This woman is luck she was tested. Age 42 pregnancy is called high risk pregnancy for good reason. Now with an infectious disease that disrupts immune system, she has to be watched very carefully. 3 hours ago, Bkk Brian said: Lets face it, there's zero chance of stopping this coming in, they can take all the measures possible as they are quite rightly doing but it only takes one case to slip through and the damage is done. By the time they have sequenced the strain it'll already be spread in the community. Its an unfortunate fact. Just like the UK strain it will lead to more outbreaks. I fear it won't be too long before Thailand develops its own mutated strain. Solution? In my opinion there is none aside from the obvious, preventive measures and vaccines. If you reside in Thailand we're in for the long haul now. At this point the intent is to delay the inevitable to give chance for hospital system to be ready and for vaccinations to be given. Unfortunately, Thailand wasted 1 1/2 years to prepare. 1 hour ago, Harm Hendrik Reitsma said: No Brit, Brasil, S.African OR Indian type of mutation Will be killing many, IT is less strong as the first virus strain. This was gold after they found it in Brittain, so nobody should be really at Risk, except of the sick and old people. But then they can have ivermectine and zink for getting better in the first stadium of infection. If live healthy, het vit D and wat healthy good, you don't have a big Risk of getting very sick from any of the virusses. Be safe. What nonsense. How do you know it is less strong? The reason the UK variant is the dominant variant now is because it is more infectious than the original China strain. If no one is at risk from UK variant why is Canada having a crisis its western region because of the UK variant? why is the dominant variant in USA now the UK variant? Ivermectine and zinc do not provide any benefit whatsoever. If they did, this would be given to patients. You read fake information and like a sucker you repeat without any understanding of the two. If your claim on living healthy, vitamin D and good health was true we would never see anyone sick with HIV, hepatitis, HPV- warts and cancers, encephalitis, zika, common colds, gastroenteritis and others. If you are so right, then no one who takes vitamin D and is healthy should ever become ill with dengue. What are you smoking? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way of knowing what's swirling around in Burma but the pandemic situation there must be dire with many hospitals and labs closed. But it's almost a stone cold racing certainty that it is in Burma that illegal border crossers who continue to bribe corrupt immigration officials and will bring the Indian variant with them. It is useless having the profile of an authoritarian regime led by a military strongman who cites national security as a justification for many things while presiding over a system that is so corrupt that it cannot even secure its own borders in a pandemic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's misleading statements like this that help generate so much controversy around the nature of C19. Maybe I should have written “too many” instead and should have added permanent damage and long lasting symptoms to the list. But I think you got my point already that two kids having to chill in a hotel room for two weeks is the smaller evil compared to what Covid causes.

Very much doubt it, arriving from Pakistan not sure how easy it would have been to get a test for herself and the children, besides which you're correct,Thai's do not need a test on returning to their home country, especially when asked to do so by their own government.

Well, me and many others have this bad habit, we always asking the why I don't look at things blindly and do not accept them as gospel without researching those items myself. I steer away from all of the unscrupulous sites, and verify what I am going to review and study to see if it could be a conspiracy based article, a pseudoscience article, a misinformation piece or one that has not been peer reviewed. Science on Covid-19 is evolving daily and we are seeing things now through the most current studies which disprove what was originally though in the early days. Case in point is Asymptomatic infection and the ability to transmit the virus as a silent carrier. I always look at things with wide open eyes, and do not believe the narrative that some push. However, when I see posts like your it makes me suspicious in the way it is written and makes me ask the same questions I pointed out. Enjoy your day, and never minimize the impact and the long term effects that Covid has and can do. I have family in the medical field who are on the front lines of Covid in the US as medical professionals, and working in the Critical Care ICU Covid wards. Enjoy your day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could always become asymptomatic and never progress to having symptoms. The mother and the 4 year old, what type of Government location are they in, is it just a quarantine center, a Field hospital, or ?, but then the story leaves out those line items.
