Lock-down Update - Chiang Mai, Thailand (April 1, 2020)

Lockdown แปลว่าอะไร ล็อคดาวน์ คือ ??? หนึ่งในมาตราการขั้นสุด ...








Since we returned home on March 17, we have stayed home, except a few times we had to go out to take care of the essential business, such as groceries, 24-hour reporting, auto insurance.

Since we returned home, Thailand stopped the entry of all foreigners into the kingdom. Lockdown and curfews are implemented gradually.

Globally, the US has reported more than 180,000 cases with almost 4,000 people dead. Itlay has also reported more than 100,000 with more than 12,000 people dead. Donald Trump has issued a warning that the upcoming two weeks will be tough and the social distancing order is extended to April 30. Korea will implement a 14-day mandatory quarantine requirement for all travelers that enter the country. Many developing nations have already shut down their airports and implemented lockdown or shutdown. It cannot be compared to the 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic, but the scale of this pandemic is truly global and deadly.

It is quite unfamiliar to me to stay home for months. Previously, my stay at home was pretty much a resting and recuperating stop before the next stop. This time, it is different.
