The numbers are twisted: 23,672 people released not dead.

The report states that that number of Covid patients were released from hospital and that there were 217 deaths. Sorry for the misinterpretation anyway and thanks for your debut post!

Hello, Muzi and welcome to Thaiger Talk

The headline states that 23,672 new infections. The story states 22,086 new infections with 217 new deaths and 23,672 released from hospital. What do you call the headline? Fake news or sensationalism.

plan "A" across the world... population control by those in power!! The sad thing is most of the populations believe what they're being told. "Soylant Green"

Do you think all 200 leaders of the nations on earth arranged this over a Zoom call or telepathically ?

The conspiracy theory stuff is cringeworthy! You really think "World Leaders" could work that cooperatively?? Ridiculous! The reality is that there isn't nearly enough vaccines around to vaccinate the population in a timely way (ie before the next variant makes it redundant). The pressure of the world populations should be put on those vaccine companies, who won't share the license to produce the vaccines they developed. Interesting that the only company I am aware of that has given licence to other countries to produce their vaccines, is Astra Zeneca. Bring some pressure to bear on Pfizer, Moderna, Sinovac, Sputnik etc to give license to countries, like Thailand, to produce these vaccines themselves.  

I would not trust a top end vaccine made here. Would you? Just look at what has been made to date, and look at the efficacy levels, after 45 days.
