    Where in my post does it say that? I posted something that was nothing more than common sense and you chose to take offense to it and pretend to know what I think. Toughen up buttercup!

    Common sense is allowing people to carry out their lawful activities and not suggest they find someway to avoid the unlawful activities of others. What you suggest is giving the unlawful precedence over the lawful. I'd call that anarchy.

    Mainly Farang idiots.

    The two times I've been affected, one when I came off, the other when I narrowly avoided being hit by a following car it was THAIs who were the cause. But I have observed farangs carrying out this attempted murder procedure too. 

     

    The absolute best though was a preteen Thai boy who went through the motions of getting ready to soak me as I approached him only to find that he was miming the whole act. No water, no bucket, empty hands, all imagination and a great sense of humor. 

  3. Stress affects immune system:

     

    But short-term stress — the fight-or-flight response, a mobilization of bodily resources lasting minutes or hours in response to immediate threats — stimulates immune activity, said lead author Firdaus Dhabhar, PhD, an associate professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences and a member of the Stanford Institute for ...

     

    “Stress and anxiety have a tremendous impact on our immune system,” said David Tolin, PhD, director of the Anxiety Disorders Center at Hartford Hospital's Institute of Living. “We know excess levels of stress produce hormonal changes that lower the body's resistance to colds and other infections.”

     

    It's the amount of stress that matters and it could be good or bad for you.

    Yesterday I had my temperature checked 4 times whilst driving around some Amphur's have set up road checkpoints to measure

    everyone's temp going into there district. If every Amphur did that it would make traveling around very laborious.

    Effectively reducing the number of people on the roads and forcing them to stay home. GOOD.

    IMO  the dumbest restriction in the year of coronavirus had to be the ban on swimming pools. AFAIK there is not one nation anywhere that has reported a COVID-19 cluster originating from one.

    Properly-chlorinated swimming pools are a death-trap for bacteria and even more so viruses. It only takes 0.1 ppm of free available chlorine for effective disinfection.

    Apart from a Stage 4 HEPA filtered positive pressure biological facility, a swimming pool is one of the safest places on the planet to be.

     

    In banning the pool it bans the cluster of people around the pool, in the showers and changing rooms, at the nearby bar etc. Effective social distancing control.
