It is deeply saddening to see how these people have been neglected by the authorities.

I have to agree, there! It only takes one infected person to enter a bar-full of people for possibly a bar-full of infected people to leave. I think we all remember that infamous Thai-boxing event at the Lumphini stadium 18-months ago, to be frighteningly aware of the dangers of company at close-quarters.

I agree but just to lock down everything without any plan is not the way and shows incompetence in handling and that they think not one step further. On that way they will crash the country and are not capable to handle the covid crises. Their vaccine management is a big disaster and is the worst in the whole south east asia if you compare to the neighbouring countries.
