Unless there is a spike in hospitalizations from actual symptomatic cases, then there is nothing to prepare for. 

Doubt health services are unprepared after so many months/years.  It is their ongoing job

That’s what’s so utterly frustrating reading these stories and comments by Politicians. If I was in the health service I’d be f*%king outraged by the suggestion that some how we need the PM to direct us on matters he know nothing about. A total insult to the profession and anyone reading the article. I do wish media outlets like the Bangkok Post would stop writing in this manner

It's either General Cheezeball ordering it or the Engineer bozo sticking his uneducated finger into it. I agree that the Thai medical sector knows more or less of what is on the horizon after this open travel helps the omicron to fester. The most disgusting thing this person does is stick his regime nose into everything and everyone's business. I still cannot get over him telling Lum Yai to stop twerking. What a Putz.

So the ol crooner is ordering the medical professionals around. Why are we surprised, he can only bark orders, he has nothing to offer in the way of creating a better situation and no-one is listening to him anyway. It is interesting that Bob the Builder has been a tad quiet over recent days and as for the watch dealer he got his chubby butt kicked for slapping his face on billboards all over the place. The  flea circus will stagger on for a few more months but very soon there will be street protests breaking out all over the place as people realise the ruling mob can only think of mass control and not economic rehabilitation.

Love the term covid related deaths 🙄 give the full story of these deaths? 70% are probably road accidents. Too Iggy of a death rate to cases ratio. Any reason to stop the tourism industry rebounding back. Control freaks
