This is a serious crisis. that deal the most damage After World War II onwards

To this day, the Covid-19 situation in our country has continued to improve. Open the country to open entertainment services and is about to open the hygienic mask soon

landing date We will never forget the people who rowed the boats.

1. We go through bad times. through inferiority, ridicule, inciting confusion with false information

But the truth has proven that All kinds of vaccines, death prevention, not contagious. The Thai public health team, the Volunteer Volunteer Team, the people’s volunteers, did the right thing and made the best decision at that time.

And we can accelerate the injection until the 100 million doses are completed as planned. stimulant injection move forward to open the country relax measures to restore the economy, etc.

Slap the foul mouth of someone who wants to see failure for the sake of his power game: “One hundred baht, one pile of dog poo, no 100 million doses of vaccines.”

2. The Infectious page, Simple, offers an interesting summary of the experience of the pandemic over 2 years.

“…In June, the beginning of the month, it is about to enter endemic diseases.

It’s been 2 years and another 6 months of the epidemic. What have the people of the world and Thai people have been through? what did you learn Reminds me of a movie called ID4 Independent day. Come check it out.

Summary of 10 facts

1) It’s not unexpected. According to the history of the epidemic Our world lives with many pathogens, especially viruses. The two global pandemics are influenza at least 5 times, but the last 6 Coronaviruses are severe, 2 (SARCoV1 and MERCoV) every 10-40 years. There will definitely be more in the future.

2) As humans learn to survive Virus/Bacteria learn to survive No matter how much people develop knowledge The virus itself can mutate. See an example of SARCoV-2 causing COVID-19. The original species was Wuhan breed Mutate into Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta and, most recently, Omicron. Omicron itself also has offspring. BA.1…..latest BA.5

3. The world’s population is infected with a lot of deaths. Even though our medical technology has advanced more than 100 years ago, the world’s population was infected at close to 600 million, with 5 million deaths, while Thailand was infected near 5 million and killed 30 thousand people, ranked 24th in the world. They are always ready to attack us.

4. Death and infection Most of the high-risk groups are the elderly. There are congenital diseases known as 608, over 60 years of age and 7 chronic diseases such as brain, lung, heart, diabetes, obesity, immunodeficiency and pregnant people. But when the Omicron era does not love children, children become more infected. infect the brain and cause more deaths My condolences to the family of the deceased.

5. Transforming medical diagnosis Early diagnosis requires time-consuming, expensive, or PCR genetic testing. Scientists have developed until the latest to use ATK from nasal cavity, saliva, breath. Previously, very few labs in Thailand were able to test PCR. In the past 2 and a half years, more labs have been developed, close to 200 in Thailand, ready to fight the next virus. to the future More negative pressure room beds. mask equipment Our respirators are ready.

6. Medicines at the beginning of the epidemic We do not have a specific drug. At first, the anti-influenza drug Oseltamivir was taken. HIV antiviral drug Lopinavir antimalarial drug Hydroxychloroquine for treatment But now scientists have come up with a variety of drugs, the original Favipiravir, RemdesivirMolnupiravir Paxlovid, thanks to the scientists’ hard work. There are international drug donations too. The best of the world.

7. Vaccines on the first day of the outbreak, Wuhan City, Hebei Province, China, at the animal market. More than one person has died from non-infectious pneumonia previously seen on Earth. Scientists are well aware of the impending disaster. Hurry up to announce the sequencing of genetic material for the world to know and start the vaccine production process immediately. It only takes 1 year. There is a vaccine to use. (Usually vaccine development takes several stages, requiring animal testing, nearly 5-10 years in humans.) There are many types, most recently, we have clear information. that vaccines reduce mortality Reduce ICU admission, reduce long covid and MIS-C in children, few who are allergic to vaccines.

Latest age 5-11 years should be 2 doses, 12-17 years should be 3 doses, >=18 years should be 3 doses 4,5

In the future, children less than 5 years old, waiting for research, must be injected for sure. and all ages when entering endemic diseases must be injected every year May be a needle per year, especially in the 608 risk group and medical personnel and the general public

8. New way of life New Normal. This term is born again, which is DMHT Distance. Keep distance. Mask. Mask. Hand washing. Wash your hands. T temp. Measure the temperature. Everyone has skills. Wear a mask, wash your hands. Carry alcohol gel from the house to help reduce infection. Thais are good for us. Announcements to remove masks have begun in some provinces. but believe that some people are still willing to wear Because it can prevent other viruses such as the flu, colds.

9. We Go Through Drama Bad things have been together for 2 and a half years. Around the world and Thai people, we have been through a lot of drama. We have lost both the deceased, the dead at home, the unemployed, the unemployed. Change career, lost income Must work at home WFH Children who miss school have to study online at home Lack of life skills Bad economy around the world, lockdown, high oil supplies, business shut down, we hurt everyone in the world.

10. In the brutality of the deadly virus We saw good things that happened at the beginning of the population epidemic. It’s a great encouragement for all 4 hundred thousand of us medical personnel and front lines in Thailand.

There is a campaign “…stay at home, stop germs, for the nation…” We donate masks, belongings, and equipment to us. We can recognize and thank all Thai brothers and sisters. Some of us have to take a break from our regular jobs and change to take care of covids. 2 and a half years of us. Some agencies haven’t stopped working every day. Haven’t been home for a long time. Some of us get infected and die as well. My condolences.

July We are moving towards endemic disease. (will be able to enter when Fewer infections, fewer deaths, fewer sick people. High % of the population vaccinated Each country enters different endemic diseases at the same time)

Conclusion Now the point where admin has always wanted to type when talking about Covid-19 for the past 2 and a half years is that we are now at the end of the tunnel. a few more steps We’re out of the tunnel and we’re starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. It’s very beautiful. It took us two and a half years. Look back at the tunnel we passed. We have lost patients and medical personnel. We are hurt, we are sad, sad, and depressed for all the victims’ families. support each other

It’s almost drama time. We will stand together hand in hand with both medical personnel and people at the end of the tunnel and watch the beautiful sunset together… Thank you from the heart of Dr. Luang Muang Thip. “

3. Of course, the captain of the boat is Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha in the past, bear all the pressure, every scolding, mocking, kicking, splashing mud, etc.

Prime Minister Lung Tu said … the outbreak of the Covid-19 epidemic since 2020, which is a global crisis. that we did not make and the biggest crisis Since the end of World War 2 / But it has severely affected the economic recession of all countries in the world including Thailand / We are estimated to be the most affected. at the top of the world Because the Thai economy relies on tourism for more than 20 percent of GDP / Covid-19 outbreak causing the world to stop traveling and tourism machinery cannot support the growth of the Thai economy as before.

Especially the tourism industry that creates jobs and generates income for the country / On July 1, 2021, Thailand has piloted an open country project “Phuket Sandbox” and opened the country seriously on November 1 last year / which has become a model for other countries to practice / However, even after opening the country We still need to be careful. must also prepare Both vaccines and medications are adequately maintained. because the epidemic crisis is not over

In this regard, the achievement of the cooperation of Thai people from all sectors, the government sector, the private sector, medical personnel, VHV officers and related front office staff / has caused many foreign organizations to including the World Health Organization accepted and admire Thailand to be the country that can deal with the best covid situation Top of the world / When you look at it positively Even if covid is a global crisis But it is an opportunity for Thailand in many aspects such as
