    Probably because we learned anything we know about Thailand from contributors like your good self?!

    And incidentally the Governor actually said:
    “ Reacting to the criticism, Phuket Governor Narong Woonciew said he has instructed officials to investigate the case.
    He said the province is ready to address valid criticisms of the hospitel system but would rebut any information that was not true.”

    So he supports my view, in post #4, that the story “is suspect”.

    Why don’t you wait until his investigation is complete?

    I can tell even more bad story: friend of mine has been tested positive on 5th day on Phuket. Then his insurance company insisted him to be tested again by their independent doctor and test has been negative, but then again hotel insisted him to be tested by doctor from hospital with which hotel has contact and again they got positive, then was one more test from insurance company and it was negative.

    After 2:2 score at 9th day insurance company told him to run to airport with negative results from last test and send him new ticket, so he did. In Moscow he did 2 more test at first and third day and both are negative. He lost 4 vacation days in room separated from his BF, paid for 5 days for additional room for his BF. His BF also was locked in room and tested once negative.

    Hotel claimed to bring them food 3 times per day + water, by fact there were only breakfasts, rest food was daily delivered to both guys by their friend (also Russian) who is living on Phuket. Also they demand to pay for both rooms upfront for 14 days. That was declined and he paid day by day.

    At past he was huge fan of Thailand, but after that he said "Never again".

    So the post from Moses might just explain why the positive test rate is inexplicably high. Would that be fraudulent test results processed by the hospitals that benefit from failures ?

    How exactly are the hospitals benefitting if the tests are positive? In these events those who tested positive were required to isolate in hotels. Weren't they? It is also generally been clear that the PCR test can note failures at different levels depending on the caution of the provider. Government standards are usually more cautious than private providers.

    Too easy to keep throwing out accusations of frauds without any evidence.

    The official statistics reported every morning around 8am segregate tourist numbers; they’re roughly 200 per day. Only a RWNJ with a frequently expressed distrust in government everywhere could make something of that

    I hope your friend is publicising this story as much as possible. That's the only way this kind of practice will stop.

    They conclude: "detected" even when numbers are lower than reference numbers from test manufacturer. It is the core of the trick. If person had COVID-19 at past, person at next 3-5 month will have such numbers of virus parts and died cells. So they use that. The same trick is described in article above.
