I was rather astonished that the first wave was so light. I started to wonder if there really was something about the theory of adequate or high vitamin D levels protecting people.
The second looks like it will be worse.

Search for Active Cases folllows discovery of Samut Sakhon cluster BANGKOK (NNT) - More provinces are searching for active cases and testing for COVID-19, in the wake of the sudden discovery of a COVID-19 cluster in Samut Sakhon.
Officials in Mae Ai district of Chiang Mai have launched a campaign in which villagers using royally bestowed biosafety mobile units are collecting test specimens, after a woman originally from Ayutthaya province tested positive to COVID-19, after returning from her work at a beauty salon in Mae Sai district.Villagers in the area can give a specimen for testing until 23rd December. Officials expect to test at least 600 people in this operation. Meanwhile, test results from 10 high-risk people in contact with the patient have all returned negative. They are still being monitored for symptoms for another 14 days. Road checkpoints have been set up along borders between Tha Don, Malika, and Mae Ai districts, where people crossing at the checkpoint are required to register with the officials. Schools in the area have been declared closed for three days. Some 100 migrant workers from Myanmar have queued up for COVID-19 tests at a booth located in front of Kamthieng Market. Most migrant workers being tested today were related to seafood refrigerating; Chiang Mai province is one of the biggest destinations of seafood from Samut Sakhon. The Governor of Chiang Mai has raised the surveillance level to high alert, with checkpoints set up to screen incomers traveling to the province in cars, trains, and planes. Phang Nga province is home to one of the biggest migrant worker communities in the country, especially migrant workers in the fishing industry. The provincial governor and health officials today oversaw the collection of specimens for COVID-19 tests on site in front of Duang Thawee Porn seafood wholesale market in Lam Kaen subdistrict. Here, the officials urged businesses not to facilitate illegal and unreported entry of migrant workers to Thailand. Meanwhile, some of the 63-person group of migrant workers who have travelled to Samut Sakhon to extend their passport have started to exhibit worrying symptoms. Their specimens were collected and sent for testing, to check for the disease. In Bangkok, the Governor Pol Gen Aswin Kwanmuang today visited Or Tor Kor Market, which is the workplace of 120 legally registered migrant workers. All tests that have returned to them so far have been negative. Similar specimen collecting stations are being arranged at all 56 markets in Bangkok, which are workplaces for some 7,000 migrant workers. City Hall expects all the tests targeting migrant workers in Bangkok will be completed within the week. The BMA and the Department of Disease Control will be testing migrant workers at construction camps as well. thainews.prd.go.th/en/news/detail/TCATG201222010204881

Talk of a nationwide lockdown again I hear. Only a maybe after 1,000 cases in the last few days, but? Illegals coming in from Myanmar to blame. Both Thai & Burmese it seems. Stock up on your drinks of choice if so.

Yes, after I posted it I told a friend in Brighton who used to live here also about it and she told me they were in lockdown with cases all over and the huge new daily cases in the U.K. Do we stress and drink more beer or not worry about something we have no control over and drink more beer? Add Covid to exchange rates and the weather to the latter.

Add Covid to exchange rates and the weather to the latter. I try and not worry about any of the three, exchange rate weather, or Covid; because as you said, we've no control over any of it. I believe stress is bad for you and things just tend to pop up anyhow.......like your fridge or my alternator yesterday; or my trip to immigration tomorrow to obtain a residency certificate to renew my licences. Waiting for the certificate will give me some breathing space until I go for licences as short sharp one or two day stress events are just about right and I can deal with them and consider them normal. Cheers bear.

The word on the Soi is that infected people from Myanmar working on the fishing trawlers in southern offshore waters are just being dumped at the nearest port and left. They try to get back home overland spreading bugs willy nilly as they go.
