The BMA has plans to make similar landscape improvements in 4-5 localities of Bangkok in the future.
It would be better if it were 45 localities of Bangkok in the future ..............................LOL

Banglamung Police did not state if any legal charges would be forthcoming over the accident or if they would be reviewing CCTV.

They [the vaccinated] spread it LESS and put a LOT LESS stress on the health system. So yes they are putting people more at risk. Just accept the facts. Is it so hard to accept that non vaccinated people do pose a health risk and do burden the health system more as those that are not vaxed.
This has been proven already by people who know what they are doing.
You are perfectly at liberty to believe what you wish to believe

2 hours ago, josephbloggs said:Sorry you did not just say vaccinated people can pass on the virus though did you, you also say "unvaccinated people are not putting others at risk any more than vaccinated people" which is what I was correcting you on (I specifically pointed that out in my rpley). But you conveniently ignored that.
I would re-read my original post before making any further comments, I will make it easy for you here it is: Personally speaking I am double vaccinated, but am also of the opinion that the first part of the above is correct meaning you should not be forced into being vaccinated it is a personal choice...

2 hours ago, josephbloggs said:Yes vaccinated people can still get infected (two double vaxxed in my household have had it - very mild symptoms) but you get rid of the virus faster and are therefore contagious for a much shorter time, ergo vaccinated people are putting fewer people at risk then unvaccinated, simple fact.
https://theconversation.com/no-vaccinated-people-are-not-just-as-infectious-as-unvaccinated-people-if-they-get-covid-171302I do believe in free choice but also believe society as a whole has a responsibility to each other and it is up to each business who they serve, and up to each employer who they employ. It will leave some people out of things but that is their choice and this is just the way it will be worldwide if you want to eat out, catch a flight, go to an event.
In Singapore a company can legally terminate an employee if they refuse to be vaccinated or refuse to disclose their vaccination status. Other countries are moving this way too. In Singapore also there is no free medical care if you willingly decided not to vaccinate.One could introduce many different scenarios of what could or could not happen but the facts do remain that vaccinated people CAN pass on the virus...

3 minutes ago, Bkk Brian said:Just to add to that, even when a vaccinated person has a breakthrough infection the viral load will decrease quicker, a study in Singapore found:
However, vaccinated people with Delta might remain infectious for a shorter period, according to researchers in Singapore who tracked viral loads for each day of COVID-19 infection among people who had and hadn’t been vaccinated. Delta viral loads were similar for both groups for the first week of infection, but dropped quickly after day 7 in vaccinated people. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02187-1
This was not the discussion, it was if vaccinated people can carry and pass on the virus which there is no doubt they can

From the article you posted : Although fully vaccinated people were less likely to contract an infection, when they did — what’s known as a breakthrough infection — they can transmit the Delta variant at a similar level as unvaccinated people.

6 minutes ago, webfact said:He said that not being vaccinated was a person's basic human right. You can't force anyone to be vaccinated.
But equally he felt that owners of businesses and those offering services to the public were within their rights to serve who they wished in order to protect themselves, their other staff and their other customers.
Personally speaking I am double vaccinated, but am also of the opinion that the first part of the above is correct meaning you should not be forced into being vaccinated it is a personal choice, & vaccinated people can carry the virus just the same as unvaccinated people.
I agree that business people should have the right to serve who they want and not be pressured into doing so by any government decree

Thailand’s Chulalongkorn University is expected to transfer technology for the mass production of its vaccine, ChulaCov 19 mRNA, to a local manufacturer in the first quarter of next year
Should they not complete clinical trials and possibly peer reviews prior to issuing these kind of statements .....????????

In response to the PM's comment I think it is he who should stop being so selfish and allow the restaurants to sell alcohol in Pattaya and stop hogging the business in government preferred places like Bangkok & Phuket

9 minutes ago, steven100 said:actually he is correct in that every child should learn to swim, it should be mandatory .... as for the language I have always said schools MUST make english a requirement. A child that can speak English has a far better opportunity to travel and advance in life through career prospects, than one that can't.
Unfortunately I think what he really means is - Bangkok is sinking so best learn to swim
& secondly learn Chinese as you will in the not too distant future be speaking it ..............
