Stop the fancy words in battle against CovidThe small drop in the number of new Covid-19 new cases to under 2,000 yesterday may look like a good sign. A total of 1,871 new cases and 10 deaths in one day tells us there's still a long battle ahead. Since the pandemic began, our society has learnt new vocabulary coined by the CCSA -- SQ (state quarantine), ASQ (alternative state quarantine) and LQ (local quarantine). I wonder how many Thai speakers grapple with these abbreviations and fancy terms, and I doubt whether the government or CCSA even care. It's probably about time for the government to stop feeding us unnecessary information, fancy words, and start sincerely communicating with us.
