My wife is an anti vaxxer as you may have read in some of my other postings. Now when I told her I was going for my 1st shot all the BS she had read on FB came out so much so I got lucky and she didn't speak to me all night !!. Now she did come with me the following day and the reason she got so uptight is that she was worried that I would a) Die within a few hours, b) Not be able to walk or C) have some other permanent debilitating side effect, all total crap she read and believed. Tell you all that fake news which is allowed to spread on FB I hope is rewarded by karma and Zuckerberg's penis rots and falls off, his tongue disappears and all his bank accounts are hacked by the Taliban. Pity your wife is wrong as there would be 1 to 2 billion of us less if she was right. The wildlife of the planet would be having continuous parties with the hope that a couple of billion more would go the same way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you said, impressionable people are deliberately mislead, which just isn't right in the name of "freedom of expression". Hope many will follow the trend.

Griff1315 Posted September 3, 2021 #50367 Share Posted September 3, 2021 (edited) Fixing the number of new infections is not good but at least please try to make it believable. My province Buriram has dropped from over 400 to today's 81 all in less than a week. The Moto GP ain't gonna happen so why the deceit.

I am not so much antivac as I don't want something injected in me that really hasn't been that well tested after leaving the military I never got a flu shot and the only reason I'm getting this vaccine (if I ever get an appointment) is that it might be tied in to getting my visa extension. Other than that my feelings are if I catch it 1 of 2 things are going to happen 1 I die no problem cremate me and throw my ashes in the sea 2 I live still no problem.

Jason Posted September 4, 2021 #51214 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Thailand's lack of vaccine (as is the case in many other countries) has a lot to do with the fact that those companies (not countries...but companies), who will not give license for their vaccines to be produced in other countries. As far as I know,only AZ has given license t be produced in other countries. Tim for Pfizer, Moderna, J&J and others to front up to scrutiny!!

Could you double-check (because it's wrong) and fill in the ellipses (because it makes no sense)? If you do, just remember there's a lag of a couple of weeks (people don't die within seconds of being infected). Cases peaked around the 17th last month. Right now (it started 4 days ago), the number of deaths of the latest wave has also peaked and there's a downward trend (as to be expected).

Only the number of deaths is not significantly decreasing yet and remains around 250. Will only go down if the proportion of positive tests wasn't manipulated by reducing the total number of tests.

We shall see. I agree that your picture shows telling signs at most, nothing all too clear/definite. Here's mine that shows the trend more clearly (it's also visualization of raw data, but does consider aggregates, which were left unchecked in your screenshot): PS: the blue line is based on factual & current data. The red line is based on an extrapolation and shows the expected future trend for the coming weeks. 4 days of a downward trend doesn't make it a sure-fire bet, but it makes sense and matches trends all over the globe at varying moments of peaking since this thing started. I wrote the software behind this and am quite confident in its predictive capabilities for at least 2 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wrote the software behind this and am quite confident in its predictive capabilities for at least 2 weeks. We don't disagree on the theory. You could only base your extrapolated graph on published data of mortality rate vs the rate of cases testing positive in relation to total test numbers. As the total test numbers are not transparently published, your model is an assumption. Hope you're right, because everyone wants the mortality rate to go down, but not everyone trusts what the government puts out. I add the graph with the moving averages for full disclosure. Makes no significant difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did double-check, and I wasn't "wrong". Whether that "makes no sense" depends, I suppose, on whether you blindly believe the case figures or not. 31 minutes ago, semrand753 said: Right now (it started 4 days ago), the number of deaths of the latest wave has also peaked and there's a downward trend (as to be expected). I think you may be the one who needs to "double check your figures" if you think the number of deaths peaked "4 days ago" and that there's "a downward trend (as to be expected)" since then. The daily deaths for the last two weeks, from 21 August to 3 September are (in that order): 261, 233, 242, 226, 297, 229, 273, 292, 264, 256, 190, 252, 262, 271. 4 days ago, on 31 August, there were 190 deaths; on 1 September, 252; on 2nd, 262; on 3rd, 271. My maths is getting rusty, but as far as I can recall 190 - 252 - 262 - 271 is NOT a "downward trend". That's five minutes wasted double-checking my figures I won't be getting back. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
