Hi, 7-day average is declining according to that same website. As is the 3-day average. Sanuk!

Hi, Case numbers and fatalities are not the same. The deaths usually trail behind the number of new infections by about 2 weeks. So, case numbers can be declining while fatalities are still rising. Sanuk!

Hi, "I thought the government said that people would be prosecuted for spreading fake news." Do as I say, not as I do. Sanuk!

Hi, "About 80,000 workers, most of whom are migrant workers at camps in Greater Bangkok, are required to stay in their camps while they are sealed off... " Which basically means that if one of them has Covid, they will have all have it by the end of this quarantine. Hopefully the gov will actually provide food for them. Sanuk!

Hi, Right, am supposed to get my 2nd shot today, but as of now there is no confirmation of this. Should have received an SMS already by now. Most likely there are - again - not enough vaccines. Sanuk!

Hi, That sounds like a scam to me. While there was some initial stories about (a very few) dogs/cats getting infected, I've not heard anything about this in over a year. Sanuk!

Hi, This is all but admitting that backhanders were paid during the vaccine procurement process. Sanuk!

Hi, "Anyhow, anybody is free to harm oneself to his hearts content." Unfortunately, by not getting a vaccine they are not just harming themselves, but also the rest of us. The longer the virus keeps circulating, the higher the chance a strain emerges which cannot be stopped by the current vaccines. Sanuk!

Hi, First time I see this Sanuk!

HI, >the same team that took charge of the Koh Tao murder case This is exactly what sprung out for me as well. Sanuk!

Hi, >but my point is if it could be calles unsafe for single female tourists I would say, no. With some caveats like don't get shit-faced, don't party with Thai guys, do not wander around alone in the middle of the night, etc. Oh, and stay the fuck away from Koh Tao Sanuk!

Hi, But what percentage of rapes get reported in Thailand, as opposed to in those countries? While I think it is a very safe country for tourists (in general, and not counting traffic issues), I think that for Thais the situation is quite different. Violence is very common, and Thais do explode at times and will kill over the slightest issue. Road rage also seems to be quite common, with many people carrying clubs, knives, or worse, in their cars. Sanuk!

HI, Agree. The law itself sounds like a good idea, but perhaps mention which brands use these chemicals? As for enforcing it, likely it the law on the beach will be whatever the local cop says it is. Gotta make sure to keep laws 'flexible' and 'open to interpretation'. Sanuk!

Hi, Don't worry I know you were not making light of the situation. I was just commenting that it would have been funny if it wasn't so true. Sanuk!

Hi, "There is a major anti-vaccine movement in Thailand, collectively known as “The Government”, " This would be a lot funnier if it wasn't so spot on Millions of people in TH would love to get vaccinated, but due to utter incompetence (and greed, corruption, etc) from the gov, it is not possible for them to do so. And in the meantime cases keep climbing. Halve the country should have been fully vaccinated by now, instead less than 10% is fully vaccinated. Sanuk!

Well done! Only 12 more ranks to go Sanuk!

Hi, "There is truth behind the comment, for once " Maybe, although I think a certain segment of the Thai population is just as much culpable for this current outbreak. Sanuk!

Hi, Wasn't actually speaking in jest Sanuk!

Hi, >(Coss Comment - Laos people say they get their Covid from people coming from Thailand...) And Thais are blaming the Burmese (of course). Sanuk!

Hi, It is very easy to criticize from the sidelines and say that you could do better. Thaksin no more has the benefit of Thailand in mind than does Prayuth. Both only care for power and their own wealth. Sanuk!

Hi, Haven't really watched any of them, so can't really comment. I would definitely not be giving any Youtuber money. Sanuk!

Hi, What a complete moron. My guess is that it will get worse before it gets better. Change the 'weeks' to 'months' and you might be closer to the truth. Sanuk!

Hi, "Sinovac also costs at least four times more than AstraZeneca." I think we can all guess where a big part of that expense is for, and why the Thai gov prefers to deal with China instead of the West. Sanuk!

Hi, “We’re all right Jack, Fuck the Peasants” Unfortunately that seems to be the going mindset for the rich and powerful in this country Also note that 100% of 'Other officials' have received a dose, a larger percentage than even medical personnel. Shows where their priorities are. Sanuk!

Hi, "the Thai government should buy trainloads of their Sinovac vaccines, it is good enough to block off the worst as long as they cannot get anything better in volume." Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be the case. Effective protection drops by 50% every 40 days or so apparently, meaning that it is pretty much useless in a short amount of time. Also several medical personnel who received 2 doses of Sinovac have still gotten Covid, with one nurse dying of it. >People who insist on not being vaccinated should be paying for hospital treatment themselves if they catch the Covid. Generally speaking, too many idiots everywhere. Totally agree with this! Sanuk!
