A Counting Game



Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)




THE SITUATION TO DATE

The Coronavirus was first reported on New Year's Eve (31 December) 2019. It is thus known as Covid-19.

A laboratory in Wuhan, China informed the headquarters of the World Health Organisation (WHO) in Geneva, Switzerland.


Over the next 19 months, the virus swept around the world.

The virus spread in five waves   -   measured by the daily reports of new cases (infections) and new deaths.

Graph shows the first four waves of daily new cases (of infections), left, and daily new deaths (by the Coronavirus), right, worldwide from 22 January 2020 to 16 April 2021.


The first wave peaked in early April 2020.

The second wave was twice as big as the first wave and peaked in mid to late-July 2020. 

The third wave was three to four times bigger than the second wave and peaked in January 2021.

The fourth wave of daily new cases began in mid-February 2021.

The fourth wave  of daily new deaths began in mid-March 2021.

The fourth wave of daily new cases and daily new deaths peaked on 28 and 29 April 2021. 

On 28 April, the highest level of daily new cases in the history of the infection worldwide was reported.

From that day, daily new cases and daily new deaths declined.

Daily new cases picked up again in mid-June 2021 in a fifth wave. Not shown on the chart.

Daily new deaths picked up again, one month later, in mid-July 2021 in a fifth wave. Not shown on the graph.

COVID-19: 10/12/2020 Update (Including International, National, State and  Local News)


According to the above chart, which applies a 'seven-day rolling average' counting method, the rate of 'reported' 'new' 'confirmed' cases per day peaked and levelled off in August 2020. 

Then the rate rose slightly towards the end of September. 

From mid-June to early September 2020, the United States and Brazil, two countries with a people much alike, reported the most cases (infections) in the world.

In early September 2020, the total number of cases reported by India surpassed Brazil's total.

Brazil and India are Third World countries. Thus, the efficiency of their counting methods or systems may be lower than that of Europe, the U. S. and Canada. In reality, the death rates of Brazil and India could be higher than the U. S.

The rates reported by Asian and other Latin American countries also are to be doubted and considered understated. 

Some believe the US, due to corrupt practices, is reporting more than the actual number of cases.

Many point out that most public services in the U. S. are run by people with less education than people in many Third World nations.

Then the rate climbed again   -   back to the level of its previous peak. It climbed higher. The rate surpassed the peak of the first wave in late October.

COVID-19 new cases worldwide by day | Statista


Daily reports of new cases of Covid-19 infections worldwide over sixteen months, from January 2020 to April 2021, peaked on 7 January 2021.

Then the reports dropped in a steep and steady decline.

By mid-February 2021, the level of reported daily new cases had dropped to the same level as mid-October 2020   -   four months earlier.   

The steep decline in daily new cases ended in mid and late-February 2021.

The daily new cases rose again, climbing steadily in a fourth wave, and peaked on 29 April 2021 before dropping.

Daily new cases picked up again in mid-June 2021 in a fifth wave.

Daily new deaths climbed again one month later in mid-July 2021 in a fifth wave.

Worldometer Graph of Daily New Deaths Worldwide

January to October 2020


DEATHS

World-wide, Worldometer recorded the most deaths in one day (a 24-hour period) - 8,573 - on 17 April 2020.

By the 'seven-day rolling average' counting method, the daily rate of reported deaths peaked in April 2020.

Then the rate fell dramatically by one-third from its peak level.

Then the daily rate rose again, indicating a 'second wave', as anticipated.

The daily decrease in new deaths remained steady until 7 May 2020 when the rate levelled off. The rate remained constant until it 'spiked' in mid-June.

The reported rate of daily new deaths increased steadily. (In other words, more new cases were reported today than were reported yesterday. More cases were reported yesterday than the day before.)

Many countries reopened their borders in June 2020. 'Lock-downs' eased. 'Social distancing' slowly and steadily disappeared.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) warned on 22 June 2020 that the 'second wave' of the virus was spreading around the world.

In July 2020, reported cases and deaths increased at a steadily growing daily rate.

Then the 'second wave' peaked in August. Its peak did not reach the height of the peak of the first wave.

According to the above graphs, there were definitely two waves of deaths - a first followed by a second. Both waves peaked and dropped. The second wave was not as high as the first.

But then the rate rose again, indicating the start of a third wave in late September. The rate increased steadily. In the first week of November, the number of reported daily deaths shot higher than the previous peak. On 11 November 2020, 10,156 daily new deaths were reported.

The Third Wave

Daily new deaths peaked on 27 January 2021.

The drop in daily new deaths ended in mid-March 2021 when the level was the same as mid-November 2020. 


COVID-19 new cases worldwide by day | Statista

The Fourth Wave

By late March 2021, the reports of daily new deaths rose and climbed in a fourth wave. 

By mid-April 2021 the number of daily new deaths reached the same level as 23 December 2020. 

By 29 April 2021, daily new deaths peaked and began to drop.

By the end of June 2021 the steep declines in daily new cases and daily new deaths levelled off.   


The Fifth Wave

The Fifth Wave of daily new cases worldwide began in mi-June 2021.

The Fifth Wave of daily new deaths began in mid-July 2021.


Between December 2020 and 7 February 2021, '128 million doses' of Covid-19 vaccine were administered. (Breakdown into primes and boosters not available.)

According to medical professionals, the vaccinations did not cause   -   or contribute to   -   the sharp and steady decline in cases and deaths from January 2021.

Nor did the vaccines prevent the highest levels of infection and deaths that were recorded by mid-April 2021.

As of 9 April 2021, 163 million people worldwide had been fully vaccinated   -   about 2.1% of the world's population.

By 15 October 2020, a total of 1.1 million deaths from Coronavirus had been reported world-wide.

By 11 Dec. 2020, almost 1.6 million.

By 26 Dec. 2020, almost 1.8 million.

By 20 Jan. 2021, 2.05 million.

By 25 Jan.           2,148,259

By 31 Jan.           2,231,184

By 1 March          2,546,905

By 7 April '21       2,885,894

By 28 April '21     3,158,423

By 5 May '21        3,243,939

By 14 May '21      3,359,153

By 19 May '21      3,418,430

By 26 May '21      3,500,000

By 11 June '21     3,788,723

By 25 June '21     3,917,924 deaths

By 19 July '21       4,110,385

By 4 Aug. '21        4,258,232

By 7 Aug. '21        4,290,768

Four countries   -   the U. S., Brazil, Mexico and India   -   account for almost half of the deaths in the world by Coronavirus. About 45%.

By early September 2020, India reported more deaths than Mexico and surpassed it as third in deaths world-wide.

As of 19 November, the U. S. has reported the most deaths, followed by Brazil (# 2), with almost two-thirds as many, India (# 3), Mexico (# 4), U. K. (# 5), Italy (# 6), France (# 7), Iran (# 8), Spain (# 9) and Argentina (# 10) in that order.

But Mexico returned to the # 3 ranking, ahead of India, in late January 2021.  

As of 00:21 GMT on 17 January 2021, the four countries accounted for 905,928 of 2,029,568 deaths world-wide. About 45% of the reported total.

As of April 2021, Brazil reported the second most deaths world-wide, roughly half as many as the U. S.

As of 7 April 2021 (01:36 GMT) the USA had reported a cumulative total of 570,260 deaths, Brazil 337,364, Mexico 205,002 and India 166,208. The four had 1,278,834 deaths   -   slightly less than half the total deaths world-wide.  

Mexico was third and India was fourth, each with much less than Brazil.

As of 28 April 2021, the US reported 588,009 deaths   -   much more than any other country and about one-fifth (20%) of all deaths world-wide. 

By May 2021, India was third and Mexico was fourth.

By August 2021, the same: USA, Brazil, India and Mexico.


The figures do not offer a real indication of the situation. The figures tell only who is recording cases and deaths the best. There are certainly many unreported cases and deaths, especially in the Third World.

Europe reported a total of 1,007,947 deaths as of 28 April 2020. About one-third of all deaths by Coronavirus world-wide have occurred in Europe.

If the reported deaths of European countries are taken together, Europe has had about twice as many deaths as the U. S.

-----------------------



To get a better understanding of the figures, one has to examine the reports closely. Where are most of the deaths occurring? In which cities? What part of the cities? Are they all elderly people in hospitals and nursing homes? That was the case in Canada in early 2021. Almost all the deaths were occurring in hospitals about Toronto. In the U. S., the New York City area reported more than 20 per cent of the country's total deaths.

Western Europe accounts for about 45% of the total number of deaths by Covid-19 worldwide.

In terms of deaths per population to date . . .

The first case of Coronavirus in the U. S. was detected in the state of Washington (Pacific Northwest) in late January 2020.

The first death by Coronavirus in the U. S. is believed to have occurred on 28 or 29 February 2020, in the city of Kirkland, a suburb of Seattle, Washington.

In March, autopsies revealed two earlier deaths in Kirkland, on 26 February, caused by Covid-19.  

Two months later, however, medical professionals in Santa Clara County, which begins at the south end of San Francisco Bay, claimed autopsies revealed two earlier deaths by Covid-19, on 6 and 17 February 2020.  


The U. S. has reported the most deaths by Covid-19   -   far more than any other country   -   followed by Brazil, India and Mexico, in that order.

- The Great War   -   also called the First World War (1914 - 1918) or World War One (WWI) (1917 - 1918)   -   killed 117,465 Americans.


America officially entered the war in April 1917 although Americans, on their own, fought for the British and French as early as 1914. The US Congress did not declare war on Germany until December 1917. The arrival of American troops in 1917 turned the tide of war against the Germans. The war ended on 11 Nov. 1918 with an armistice.

- The Second World War (September 1939 - September 1945), also called World War Two (WWII) (WW2) (December 1941 - September 1945), killed 405,000 Americans.

In just under seven months (28 February to 18 September), Coronavirus killed half as many Americans (people in the United States) as WW2.

By the end of 2020, Coronavirus claimed almost 90% as many Americans (people in the United States) as WW2.

In just 10 1/2 months   -   from February 2020 to 16 January 2021   -   Coronavirus killed 405,000 Americans (people in the United States), as many Americans killed in WW2.

By 3 June 2021, the U. S. reported 611,020 deaths by Covid-19   -   50% more than the total number of Americans killed in WW2.

For Europeans, the Second World War began with the German invasion of Poland on 1 September 1939. Germany refused to withdraw from Poland and the British and French declared war on Germany. 

Americans considered the war in Europe an European affair and remained neutral. However, many Americans joined and fought with British and Canadian forces and joined international volunteer medical services.

The Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor and declaration of war on the U. S. on 7 December 1941 forced the US to declare war on Japan. Thus, the start of the Pacific War.

The declaration of war by Japan's Axis partner Germany on the U. S. on 11 December 1941, four days after Pearl Harbor, drew the U. S. into the European war. Thus, the Second World War.   

The war in Europe officially ended with German surrenders to the British, Americans and Soviets in May 1945. The war officially ended in the Pacific with Japan's surrender to the Allies in Tokyo Bay in September 1945.

 

Pacific War

- The Pacific War (December 1941 - September 1945), which was part of the Second World War, killed about 161,000 Americans.

In just over five months (from 28 February to early August 2020), Coronavirus killed more Americans (people in the United States) than the Pacific War.

By the end of 2020, Coronavirus killed more than twice as many Americans as the Pacific War.

In just one year, or by early February 2021, Covid-19 killed more than three times as many Americans as the Pacific War.

Most Americans consider the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941, which was followed by a Japanese declaration of war, the start of the Pacific War.

The war in Europe began on 1 September 1939 and the first hostilities in the Pacific were conducted by the German auxiliary cruiser Orion: the ship mined the waters off Auckland, New Zealand on 13/14 June 1940, resulting in the sinking of the passenger liner RMS Niagara and other ships several days later.

The Germans defeated France in June 1940 and the Japanese launched an invasion of French Indo-China on 22 September 1940.    

The German auxiliary cruiser Komet joined the Orion and the ships shelled the island of Nauru   -   mandated by the League of Nations to Britain, Australia and New Zealand   -   and sank ships off the island, including the passenger liner RMS Rangitane, in October 1940.

The Japanese broadcast their intent to surrender on 14 August 1945 and fighting in the Pacific ended in the following weeks.   

 

Korean War

Korean War Armistice Agreement Ouly 27, 1953) – HISTORY THRILL

Gen. Mark Clark signs armistice.


The Korean War began in 1950 with the invasion of South Korea by North Korea.

The North Koreans pushed US and South Korean forces almost off the peninsula.

The Korean War was actually an undeclared war. The U. S. Congress did not declare war. American soldiers were sent to Korea as part of the United Nations force in a martial action to push the North Koreans out of South Korea. 

UN forces, under command of General Douglas MacArthur, pushed the North Koreans out of South Korea and back into North Korea and pursued them all the way north to the Chinese border.

Chinese forces invaded Korea and, with North Korean troops, pushed UN forces out of North Korea and into South Korea, and occupied the northern half of South Korea.

UN forces pushed the Chinese and North Koreans out of South Korea.

One year into the war, the front lines settled more or less along the original border dividing the two countries.

Fighting continued for two years until an armistice was reached in 1953.  


Indo-China War

- The Indo-China War (Laos, Viet Nam, Cambodia) (1945 - 1975) killed 58,000 Americans.

The Indo-China War began with the Allied victory over Japanese forces in Asia and the Pacific, ending the Second World War, in 1945   -   and the return of French forces, with the assistance of British and Chinese forces, to re-establish French colonial rule in 1945 and 1946. 

French and Vietnamese forces fought against pro-independence nationalists and communists.

Americans with the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) were in Vietnam in 1945.

Some Americans volunteered to fight for the French during the period.

The war ended in 1954 with the communist defeat of French and Vietnamese forces in the Battle of Dien Bien Phu, the abandonment of Tonkin (northern Vietnam) by the French, the division of Vietnam into two states   -   North Vietnam (with Hanoi as the capital) and South Vietnam (with Saigon as the capital)   -   and the establishment of a communist regime in North Vietnam.

A civil war continued throughout Indo-China between Vietnamese, Laotian and Cambodian communists and anti-communists.

Fighting between North and South Vietnam began in the following year, 1955.

Many Americans volunteered. American soldiers were sent as advisors to defend local regimes against communists throughout the period, 1955 - 1975.

The Indo-China War was an undeclared war. The US Congress did not vote for war.

From 1964 to 1973, American soldiers were sent to Indo-China in a martial action   -   without the backing of the United Nations   -   to 'contain' communism in North Vietnam and limit its spread or influence in Southeast Asia.

Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, Thailand and the Philippines also sent troops.

US Army draftees were sent to Indo-China from 1965 to 1973.

The war ended with the abandonment of Indo-China by the Americans in 1973 and the complete take-over of Indo-China by the communists in 1975. 

The last American soldiers left in 1975.

South Vietnam was merged with North Vietnam.

Communist regimes were established beforehand in Cambodia, in April 1975, and later in Laos, in December 1975.


The two world wars (1914 - 1918 and 1939 - 1945), Korean War (1950 - 1953) and Indo-China War (1945 - 1975) combined killed 614,000 Americans.

As of 11 June 2021, Covid-10 killed 614,007 Americans (or people in the U. S.).

As of 9 August 2021, Covid-10 killed 633,116 Americans (or people in the U. S.).


Spanish Flu

- The Spanish Flu (1918 - 1920) killed an estimated 675,000 Americans.

It infected one-third of the world's population.

In the United States, the Spanish Flu appeared in Kansas in March 1918 and faded 25 months later, after April 1920.


Variety Archives: Coronavirus Outbreak Echoes the 1918 Flu Pandemic -  Variety

In just nine months, from March to December 2020, Coronavirus killed half as many Americans (people in the United States) as the Spanish flu.

In less than one year, Coronavirus killed 500,000 Americans. 

By 3 June 2021, Coronavirus killed 611,020 Americans (or people in the United States).

By 9 August 2021, Covid-10 killed 633,116 Americans (or people in the U. S.).


World-wide, most of the victims of the Spanish Flu were under the age of forty.

By contrast, most of the victims of Coronavirus have been elderly people.

Your Work Peak Is Earlier Than You Think - The Atlantic The President and the Plague: Tracking the Toll of Trump's Failure -  Rolling Stone


In September the American president pointed out that there are different ways to tally deaths and different ways to consider their significance:


Excess deaths   -   deaths in excess of the usual amount 

Unexpected increase in deaths; a large percentage caused by Coronavirus 

Compare the reported number of deaths in one country during a certain period of time (for example, a four-month flu season, from November to February) with the number of deaths reported during the same period in previous years.

If in recent years, 800 to 1,000 people have died during those four months of the flu season in that country but 10,000 died during the same period this past year something unusual has caused 9,000 to 9,200 deaths.

The U. K. has one of the highest numbers of 'unexpected deaths'   -   that is, deaths above past averages   -   more than Italy and much more than the U. S. A. 


- Percentage of the population killed by Coronavirus

Compare deaths by the disease per capita   -   the number of deaths per population.

As of 1 September, Peru had 876 deaths by Coronavirus per one million people and Belgium 853. Peru and Belgium had the highest rates of deaths by Coronavirus per population in the world.

Spain (622), the U. K., Chile, Italy, Sweden, Brazil, the U. S. A. (567) and Mexico (499) were far behind. 

This method offers another picture of conditions. But this method is best applied over an entire larger region rather than to small individual countries.

Europe   -   from the Atlantic to the Urals and from the Artic to the northern Mediterranean   -   has the highest per capita death rate. But this is probably due to better detection and reporting systems. 


- Confirmed cases of Coronavirus resulting in death

Compare the number of deaths in confirmed cases of COVID-19; that is, the percentage of people with confirmed cases of Coronavirus who have died.

Italy, the U. K. and France have the highest rates. The U. S. has a lower rate than the U. K., France, Italy, Spain, Canada, Germany and Brazil. The U. S. has a slightly higher rate than Norway and Japan. 


The figures might offer some idea of the quality of medical care in a country.

In England, the virus climbed dramatically from mid-March to mid-June before levelling off. From mid-June there were few deaths. By August the virus seemed to be under control.

The number of daily new cases decreased from early-to-mid April to mid-July. The rate was very low.

But the rate spiked in mid-July and climbed steadily to mid-August and then spiked dramatically to late September to a level close to its peak in March.

In terms of cases, England experienced a second wave of the virus, much higher than the first wave. It began in late August and climbed to a high rate of 33,470 cases in one day on 12 November. It dropped by one-third by early December.

Daily new deaths remained very low in July and August but started to climb in late September and early October and reached 696 death in one day on 25 November before heading down. 

The peak of the second wave was only one-half the peak of the first wave in April.  

In December 2020, the death rate soared and continued to climb. It peaked on 20 January 2021 and dropped back to mid-October 2020 levels by mid-March 2021.

Why so many deaths in the USA (17,000 deaths per 1 million population)?

And not so deaths many in its neighbour Canada (4,000 per 1 million population)?

First, the US has ten times the population.

Second, outside the cities, Canadians have far more living space than Americans.

The first nation-wide restrictions were imposed on 17 March 2020. Thailand followed other countries in imposing restrictions. 

Many hotels in Bangkok were closed from April to October 2020. Some remained closed into the new year, 2021. Some did not reopen.

Since April 2020, all Thais and foreigners arriving in Thailand must submit to a fortnight of quarantine in a specified hotel. Officially, once out, they are restricted to certain destinations and must be escorted by a government official.

 

Protesters take over Victory Monument, Asoke Live video: Protesters march on Govt House 

Mass protests and demonstrations in Bangkok from July 2020 to January 2021.

The biggest in six years, since 2014. 

The above photos were taken in Bangkok on 16, 17 and 18 October: L - R: Victory Monument, Democracy Square.

The demonstrators demanded the resignation of the prime minister, a new constitution, elections, and curbing royal prerogative.

Demonstrators wore facemasks but, of course, there was no social distancing.

There were no reports of Coronavirus infections.  


'Social distancing' became a haphazard thing in Bangkok by August 2020.

The big surprise was the complete abandonment of 'social distancing' by Bangkok's subway and Sky train in August. Coaches were packed again with people standing elbow to elbow. Yet, everywhere, 'social distancing' was being promoted   -   on TV, in posters and in public videos. City buses do not follow social distancing. Top government officials were not talking about 'social distancing' anymore. Except for the face masks, temperature checks and fading notices there was little evidence of an epidemic.

China pressed the Thais to allow large groups of Chinese tourists (in the hundreds and thousands) to enter Thailand for long visits without quarantine, travel restrictions and government escorts.

Desperate for the tourist 'dollar', especially from China, on 10 December the Thai government decided to allow everyone into Thailand, whatever the situation in the country of departure. They still had to quarantine a fortnight in a specified hotel upon arrival.

Shortly after that, the number of daily reported cases of Covid-19 skyrocketed, far above the highest levels recorded since the outbreak of the pandemic.


Blaming Burma

The sudden flare-up was 'traced' to a fish market in the seaport of Samut Sakhon near Bangkok. The infections spread to other provinces.

Thai government officials blamed migrant workers from Burma. Many work in the coastal port of Samut Sakhon, to the west of Bangkok, on the Gulf Siam. Many were found to be infected.

Burma has the most cases of the virus on Mainland Southeast Asia.

But all the Burmese workers in the port who were tested had worked in the port for a long time.

Thai government officials blamed smugglers of illegal migrants from Burma.

But none of the Burmese workers in the port who tested positive were illegal migrants. 


Blaming gamblers

On 28 December 2020, the country reported its 61st death by Covid-19   -   a 45-year-old parking lot attendant at a gambling casino in Rayong. 

The blame was shifted to gambling casinos in Rayong.  

By mid-January 2021, 70 deaths. By 26 February 2021, 83 deaths.

 

Many businesses were forced to close by Covid-19: guest houses, massage parlours, convenience stores, tailors, restaurants, print shops, dentists . . .

Some proprietors closed up and moved away.


Big spike in cases in Thailand

CCSA Update: 745 new Covid-19 cases and 1 death | Thaiger

Graph, from January 2020 to January 2021, shows the sudden steep rise in daily reports of new Covid-19 cases in Thailand on 3 January 2021.


As of 28 January 2021, no Coronavirus vaccinations had been administered in Thailand.

It was reported earlier that the Thais were 'working' with Oxford University and the Anglo-Swedish multinational pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca, headquartered in Cambridge, England, to develop a vaccine by mid-2021.

In response to the spike, the Thais announced that they had ordered a Chinese vaccine, Sinovac, which is only 50% effective, and planned to vaccinate a limited number of people in February.


Prospects brighten for Thai-Cambodia maritime pact | Emerald Insight

Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen, at left, and Thai Prime Minister Prayut Chan - o - cha, right.

The two leaders pointed out that the various vaccines are still in the trial stages and their efficacy uncertain. They maintained that their countrymen are not guinea pigs.

Cambodia began inoculations on 10 February 2021 with Sinopharm vaccine donated by China. The first to go were Hun Sen's sons.


On 20 January 2021, the Thai government confirmed that it had ordered 200,000 doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine.

The first 50,000 doses were due in February 2021.     

About two million doses from AstraZeneca were to be delivered between February and April 2021.

The first vaccinations were to be administered on 14 February to those most at risk and in areas most at risk. 

Medical professionals on the 'front-lines'   -   medics  and other health care workers   -   were to be vaccinated first. The vaccinations are not compulsory.

The first vaccinations would be administered in Samut Sakhon Province. That would mean thousands of Burmese workers in the port and many Thais in the market.  

Other people most at risk  -   people over age 60 and people with heart disease   -   would be vaccinated.     

The government would request 26 million more doses from AstraZeneca.

The government has an agreement to produce the AstraZeneca vaccine in Thailand. 'Supplies' would arrive in May at the earliest.

From May to December 2021, the vaccine would be administered in other provinces.

The PM promised free vaccinations for half the population by the end of 2021. 

The rest would be vaccinated in 2022.


Prayut first to take jab as vaccine rollout kicks off Second AZ dose 'after 16 weeks'

The Thai PM Prayut received the primary shot on 16 March and the booster on 24 May. The booster was delayed due to the shortage of AstraZenaca doses.

On 22 April, the press announced that Russia would supply Thailand with its Sputnik vaccine   -   and Pfizer would provide 10 million doses.

There are drawbacks and problems with all vaccines but, all things considered, Pfizer seems to be the best thus far.

Vaccination (the prime and the booster) offers less than full protection for one year or less.

There are unconfirmed incidents of re-infection after full vaccination with the Chinese vaccines, which offer very limited protection, most recently, in the Seychelles.  

Professionals on the 'frontline' in Thailand   -   medics, caretakers et al   -   are to be fully vaccinated by June.  

Inoculation of the greater public, including all foreigners, was to begin in many hospitals in Bangkok on 7 June and in the provinces on 14 June. Those who received the primary in June could get the booster in October.

Delays are possible and even likely.


In the last week of April 2021, with Covid-19 raging more than ever before, Bangkok locked down for a fortnight, to 9 May. Public parks closed. Restaurants could offer take-outs only. Curfew. The lockdown was extended an additional week to 17 May. Restaurants reopened on 17 May. But parks remained closed till mid-June.   

Otherwise, life went on as before. Joggers ran in the streets and around the park outside it instead of inside it.

In the U. S., the pandemic seems to be over. In Europe, it's on its way out. Many Thais are more in tune with events in Europe and the U. S. than events in Thailand. Thus, in May, with the virus raging, many restaurants reopened, some massage parlours reopened. 

Towards the end of May, as daily new deaths in Thailand reached record numbers, with most deaths in Bangkok, food courts reopened. Someone somewhere somehow realised the mistake and they were closed in a fortnight.  

In the U. S., the face masks are coming off. In Thailand, anyone caught without a face mask in public is to be fined Baht 20,000 (US$650.) 

The three big annual celebrations in May were cancelled   -   Coronation Day, the Royal Ploughing Ceremony and Visaka Puja (Buddhist).


Covid-19 trends likely to stick

Social distancing was restored on the Sky train and subway (metro/tube).

By far, most of the reported cases of Covid-19 are in Bangkok.

Labour contractors treat workers like slum dwellers. Dozens of construction workers are cramped together in small 'camps' (buildings). Thus, many construction workers have been infected. Many are from Burma.

Bangkok was a very quite city in early July 2021. All construction work had halted. Some sixty camps with workers were locked down. Police guarded the camps. No one could get in or out. The government guaranteed the workers 50% of their pay.

The fast-spreading Delta variant of the virus accounted for 26% of new cases in Bangkok in late June and early July.

Record numbers of cases and deaths were reported on three successive days in late June and early July: 57 deaths on 30 June and 61 on 1 July.

91 daily new deaths, a record, on 10 July 2021.

98 daily new deaths, a new record, on 19 July 2021.

A new record of 235 deaths in one day on 9 - 10 August 2021.


2,023 deaths as of 30 June 2023, ranked 88th worldwide, after Nigeria and before South Korea, and 28th in Asia, after Sri Lanka and before South Korea. 

3,502 deaths as of 20 July 2021, ranked 77th worldwide, after Palestine and before Oman, and 25th in Asia, after Palestine and before Oman. 

5,854 deaths as of 6 August 2021, 16:53 GMT, ranked 63rd worldwide, ahead of North Macedonia and behind Uruguay; ranked 20th in Asia, behind Georgia and ahead of Azerbaijan. 

6,353 deaths as of 9 August (60th worldwide).


The Thai government declared a state of emergency in Bangkok and surrounding provinces in July to 30 September 2021. Pubic parks closed 23 July to 30 September. Curfew from 8 pm to 4 am. Public city transport stops. Restaurants closed day and night (or take-outs or deliveries only).

Private hospitals will receive five million doses of the Moderna vaccine between in 2021 and 2022.

20 million doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine will be delivered after October 2021.



Frontline staff at Bangkok hospital brace for new Covid cases

ICU, King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, 11 May 2021.

Chulalongkorn is a big public general hospital beside Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok.


Officially, the population of Thailand is 65.18 million.

From 28 February to 13 June 2021, 1.52 million (2.33 %) received both the primary and the booster vaccinations and 4.14 (6.35 %) million received the primary shot.

As of 9 August 2021, about 4.5 million people in Thailand have received the primary and booster.

Thus far, Thailand has relied almost entirely on the AstraZeneca vaccine, most of which is locally produced.

The vaccine is effective for eight months and perhaps one year or more.

Everyone must be vaccinated all over again later this year or next, depending on the date of the booster. 

At this rate, life will not be back to normal before 2023 or 2024.

According to an article on Bloomberg News (Online) on 25 January 2021, citing figures provided by the Thai Ministry of Tourism and Sports, 6.7 million tourists arrived in Thailand in 2020 compared with 30.9 million in 2019.

The figures for the year 2020 were the lowest since 2008, when political turmoil made it inadvisable to visit the country.

In December 2020, only 6,556 tourists arrived; one year earlier, in December 2019, 3.9 million tourists arrived.

Bloomberg cited a source that claimed the figures would not return to pre-pandemic levels before 2024. 

According to Bloomberg, the Bank of Thailand expects lower figures in 2021 but a 'rebound' to 23 million tourists in 2022, about half as many as in 2019.

Third Wave ended in January 2021

Fourth Wave of cases and deaths peaked on 29 April 2021


COVID-19 new cases worldwide by day | Statista

CASES

Reports of daily new cases of Covid-19 infections worldwide peaked on 7 January 2021.

By 5 February 2021, the level of daily new cases had dropped to the same level as 25/26/27 October 2020   -   slightly more than three months earlier. 

The decline in daily new cases levelled off on 17 February 2021.

For the next month, to mid-March 2021, the number of daily new cases formed a fourth wave and climbed steadily through April and reached its peak on 29 April.


DEATHS

Daily new deaths peaked on 27 January 2021 and by 4 February 2021 had dropped to the same level as the end of December 2020.

In mid-February 2021, the number of daily new deaths worldwide rose again.

By 10 March 2021, daily new deaths had dropped to the same level as the first week of November 2020.

By the third week of March 2021, daily new deaths appeared to be climbing, indicating a fourth wave.

By 12 April 2021, daily new deaths had climbed back up in a fourth wave to the previous levels of December 2020.

Deaths peaked at the end of the month on 29 April 2021.
