Popular Post RichardColeman Posted May 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 18, 2021 If it's this much in the prisons, it's only non-testing in the community keeping Thailand's figures as low as they are - even when reported as high ! 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smedly Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I think we can safely add 2 zero's to that figure but since they are not testing we will never know 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rookiescot Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Most on here have been saying since this since the virus started. As soon as it gets into the prisons it will spread like wildfire. If we could see it coming why could the authorities not? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
