    Great - thanks.  Any accommodation recommendations for Ban Kruat and Ubon?

    Stay here for Ban Kruat, also easy access to the places from my trip if interested.

    Just around the corner is this restaurant and bar, it shuts around 8pm, but the the owners are great and friendly people.

    Ubon, this restaurant has a cheap and cheerful place to stay behind it.

    Well, the problem is that lots of these patients are immunocompromised. So they weighed the risk of these people getting infected vs. getting treated. And of course, medical personnel were working overtime and around the clock to treat people who had filled up the ICU's. You know, people in immediate danger of dying.

    Some maybe, but in the UK  the hospitals shut departments.

    The relevant point is hospital beds and ICU units in particular are full with COVID patients amongst which the unvaccinated account for a disproportionately high number. 

     

    The point you miss is the high demand the health services are seeing now is a lot lower than it would be without the lockdowns and other precautions. 

     

     

     

    Well in the UK, doctors and nurses and general staff spent more time making tiktok videos as the only patients allowed in were covid positive. Hospital were not full at all.

    You are failing to mention the 6.2 million hospitalisations and the fact that States within which the State Government has actively opposed policies to protect their population infections, hospitalisations and deaths are continuing at ever increasing rates.

    As for your gaslighting 'vaccine experiment',  take a look at the data coming out of the States with the lowest vaccine uptake. 

    I did not fail to mention anything, i gave figures that i thought relevant.

    You have a vaccine/health passport rolled out like France. Since kids cant be jabbed yet, maybe they would have to be left home. Police or City/Provincial health inspectors undertake spot checks,

    Jail and restaurant closure for any owners who don't comply. For those customers who are caught eating without vaccination QR codes or hospital records on the spot fines!

    Were you a brown shirt wearer in a past life?

    Standard NHS contributions deducted from the salary each month - you have the same type of contributions in Thailand under Social Security monthly deductions. I contribute every month. UK is free test kits, here you will pay for a test kit.

    NHS, you pay up front all people in work do via National Insurance, so it is not free. Unless you have never paid National Insurance.

    What was the solid proof you provided to the cops to cause her arrest at the airport years later?

    If you make a police report, they go to court with the evidence, if the evidence is enough the courts issue a warrant. The next time they go anywhere in Thailand that requires them to prove identity they ping on the computer and get arrested.

    You have anything to back up that statement? Seems like a convenient way to legitimize junk research intended only to support alt-right narrative.

    Really, i did not know that, also i don't claim to be one. But going back to the subject peer reviews are meaningless and the worlds greatest scientists of the past did very well with OUT them.

     

    I missed a word out, i hope my meaning is more clear now.

    The problem is that lockdown in Thailand means congregation of too many people in a small space. The good doctor is recognising that Thailand is a desperately poor country in which "lockdown" enforces close proximity. It has therefore achieved the opposite effect. The likes of myself and others, who can (and have) seriously locked down for 2 months, (viz not been out of my condo into the great metropolis of Bangkok), is not an option available to the majority of the Thai population, in Bangkok, or elsewhere. For the MoPH not to have recognised the reality of life of ordinary Thais speaks volumes. The economy has been substantially destroyed, and, along with a slow, (but improving vaccination rollout?) is the main reason Thailand's recovery will be slow and painful. The case numbers (if they are true) are relatively low, and the encouraging (if true) statistic, is that recoveries from infected persons are higher than new cases. Death numbers are also low. None of this is a cause for celebration, but a reality check, and a more pragmatic approach are certainly needed.  

    How did you eat and exercise for two months without leaving your apartment?
