Today (14 April 65) Assoc. Prof. Dr. Teera Woratanarat Faculty of Medicine Chulalongkorn University Post messages via facebook Thira Woratanarat It states that on April 14, 2022, it has surpassed 501 million people, yesterday around the world added 962,395 people, adding 2,615 deaths, totaling 501,832,252 people, totaling 6,213,239 deaths.
The top five with the most infections were South Korea, Germany, France, Italy and Australia. Yesterday, the number of new infections included countries from Europe and Asia, seven of the top 10 and 15 of the world’s top 20. The number of new infections every day in the world now. from Asia and Europe Together they accounted for 85.81% of the world, while the number of deaths accounted for 76.02%. New infections in Asia accounted for 34.72% of the world, while the number of deaths increased to 26.27%.
epidemic situation in Thailand Yesterday, the number of new infections, including ATK, was the 7th highest in the world and 3rd in Asia, while yesterday’s death toll. It is the ninth highest in the world. The number of deaths in Thailand yesterday accounted for 15.4% of all reported deaths in Asia.
Protracted epidemic, as seen from the epidemic characteristics that peaked around March 10, 2022 (including ATK), Thailand’s downtrend was prolonged and unsettled for months. This is a result of both the epidemic of BA.2 replacing BA.1, coupled with the impact of public relations that people in the society see that Omicron is not severe, shoddy, take it easy, declare it to be endemic in a few months. All of this has clearly reduced the vigilance in the lives of many people in society. and lead to widespread and continuous infection that cannot be controlled
when today which is during the Songkran Festival, a long holiday The daily number of infections, including tens of thousands of ATKs, is a huge fuel. that are ready to cause more forest fires to spread The lessons from the past year have taught us that Two weeks following Songkran The daily chance of infection is 2-3 times more, and the effects don’t stop there. But it will multiply by more than 2 times over the next month.
I would like to appreciate the media for keeping up with the situation at the night tour spots. Whether in Phuket and Bangkok shows that There are shops, entertainment businesses. Eat and drink a small amount that doesn’t care regarding the rules set by the government. cause a hilarious party eat and drink in a crowd no defense What’s more, there’s also a lot of fun playing in the water, using water guns, and so on.
would have to throw out various knowledge books if the outbreak did not spread from such events because it has all the elements, including a large number of people (crowdedness), closeness (closeness), some areas, some shops are poorly ventilated, eat, drink, share food (sharing), including spending time together (long duration)
Above all, the most important and is the main problem that needs to be solved urgently. Demonstrating ineffective enforcement of disease control regulations
It’s not too late today If all parties are aware of the importance and turn to do what is right for the situation
The outbreak in Thailand is still severe, continues, spreads throughout, not because of anything. Besides because we do it ourselves. both in terms of inadequate prevention and control Economic accelerator pedal with necessity even understandable But the acceleration by the braking system is not good. There is a risk of accidents that will lead to serious injuries.
Covid…infected…not just you addicted…not finished, just lost or dead But it will be followed by long-term disorders such as Long COVID that will deteriorate quality of life. Deterioration in performance in daily life and work. chronic disease and affecting the cost burden for both the sick, the family and the country in the long run. At this point, it is highly likely that Long COVID will be a major problem for Thailand. and need to be planned in advance both health problems social and economic
