Thaiger Posted July 29, 2021 #22360 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Koh Samui has recorded its highest 1-day jump in Covid-19 infections since the southern island re-opened to international tourism. According to a Bangkok Post report, officials have confirmed 20 new cases but insist the development will not affect the island’s Samui Plus re-opening programme. 16 of the new infections are a cluster linked to a cashier at a local gym.

BookShe Posted July 29, 2021 #22383 Share Posted July 29, 2021 The 20 new cases are from yesterday. The bamboo cluster just added another 39 cases today.

Hence the "do not threaten" brainfart from this genius. 1 Quote Link to comment https://talk.thethaiger.com/topic/2998-surge-in-new-covid-infections-on-koh-samui/#findComment-22383 Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdwardV Posted July 29, 2021 #22393 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Stick a fork in Samui, it’s done. Doesn’t appear any of the cases are from “Samui Sandbox” arrivals, and clearly those in charge don’t care anyway.
