[Thaiger]

7 more provinces are classified as “dark red” provinces under maximum control, the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration announced today. Tight restrictions in dark red zones were imposed on Monday restricting interprovincial travel, limiting gatherings to no more than 5 people and ordering residents to stay at home from 9pm to 4am. Despite the new restrictions this week, the Covid-19 situation has not improved, and officials are considering imposing more stringent measures to control the spread of the virus, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Department of Information News Division director Pensom Lertsithichai, who gave the daily CCSA report […]

It takes about seven days (or more) for the symptoms to even show up. So even the most optimistic scenario would be that caseload starts to decrease very slowly sometime next week. Even if it didn't decrease all next week, that would still be a totally realistic scenario even if these lockdown measures were eliminating covid. Being disappointed at "not seeing results" measly five days into curfew means that these government is out of touch with what to expect.

As I live in Udon Thani, a newly created dark red zone I shall keenly be looking out of my window tonight from 9 pm onwards to see if I can spot those nasty covid carriers. Of course between 4 am and 9pm they don't exist based on this governments logic. Plus of course in any event the lazy arse police wouldn't be out after dark checking for themselves anyway.

Chiang Mai had 76 new cases today, up from 66 yesterday. 

3 weeks ago we were bouncing along happily with zero or single digit daily cases.

If they have to purchase AZ, which supposed to be locally made, how long do you think Pfizer or Moderna will be available? :( 

 

Debutant MP Wiroj Lakkhanaadisorn from the opposition Move Forward Party has campaigned relentlessly for full disclosure of the government’s vaccine procurement contracts, insisting that transparency is vital in the fight against COVID-19.

The National Vaccine Institute recently responded by sending Move Forward a copy of a contract for the purchase of 26 million AstraZeneca doses. However, most of the document is blacked out, Wiroj revealed on Monday (July 12).

As for the United States, the Thai Foreign Minister said theMinistry of Foreign Affairs had initiated talks with the U. S. government on vaccine procurement in February this year, and had discussed the matter with the United States Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman, during her official visit to Bangkok on 2nd June.

... "restricting interprovincial travel" ...

What exactly does that mean?

Does someone stand at a provincial border and count the numbers passing by and stops everyone else after a magic number has passed through?

It means nothing other than "we are repeating the same claptrap as we said last time around."

So hence the government perhaps hoping that these latest restrictions will only last for a short period

Amata Nakorn Industrial Estate is Thailand’s largest industrial estate. Supposedly it contributes to Thailand’s GDP by a lot! Like a lot!

Once Covid is loose in that estate, one of Thailand’s biggest economic drivers is done for. But hey at least tourism is up in Phuket! That was the main priority right?

More testing more cases ?

We now know that the PCR test is no longer valid as a way of testing for COVID-19 so why is it be still being used ?

We also know that the recovery rate from Covid exceeds 99 percent so why all this drama.

Singapore has adopted no lockdown and no quarantine and developing their economy.

What is the aim of Thailand.
