The community responds to the news that the Thai government has removed China from its 'dangerous list' following the COVID-19 outbreak.

Many express concern over the timing of Thailand's potential reopening and the management of COVID-19 in both Thailand and China.

I am from Australia too. On day 5 of Quarntine in Melbourne Marriott Hotel. Spent 10 weeks in Thailand. Will be interesting to see how things look in Melbourne when I get out. Tested for virus two days ago results soon.

Thailand gradually opening up now too. Hopefully everything back to normal soon. Wearing mask, social distancing and using hand sanitizer was a minor adjustment. Amazing how so called advanced countries could not work it out.

That is good news. Amazing what can be accomplished with common sense approach. I spent last 10 weeks in Thailand and was very impressed with the measures they put in place taking a lead off China. Virus all but gone there too. The failure of USA and Europe is truly astounding as they had months to prepare yet did nothing.

This is why China is remaining low risk. It shows how serious they are attacking this virus. To prevent new clusters forming they are willing to quarantine thousands of people and lockdown cities of millions of people.

There is nothing "mysterious" about a few dozen people being infected with covid-19. China is just being extra careful to avoid the virus becoming a thing there again.

Guys / Girls , just calm down a little , think it though ..

Everyone now ( obviously ) knows that lock downs do not work ( China will argue due to population for them , it's harsh love only )

This is a Virus , there is no such thing as a " New ' virus , there is only evolving virus . They have managed to have initial control of WHO , supposedly some doctors have dissappeared , who would know .

Terrified and gained control of the Western world , political instability in UK , put Trump at risk in USA .

Asia , following controls as requested , no issue there , but gaining momentum for sure .

Socialist Europe , would love to keep going , as citizens love a drama and a handout , just like in the book " Animal Farm " , never truer than today .

P.I.G.S.......F , all terrified ..

Australia and NZ , hardly matter but some nice land holdings to potentially control .

Tiawan ( after a great result ) wants to join WHO ..why is that ?

Now put together the jigsaw for yourself , with the understanding that we know lockdowns don't work , and you will really very very clearly see the agenda .

Now , don't let them scare you , understand the obvious , you must be exposed and don't contribute to what is rather obvious control .

If Bloomberg is reporting something bad about China, it has to be true since China basiclly owns them.
