Imagine you're still in your home country. How would you feel about immigrants - whose culture of drink, drugs, casual sex with your female relatives and generally arrogant behaviour you find fairly abhorrent -  getting the same benefits as you? 

What, like the immigrant grooming gangs raping women in the UK you mean?

I have a Thai drivers license and pink ID card 💗 

It would be interesting to see how that works, skepticism tells me it will identify you as a foreigner by your number and thus be ineligible.

Agreed. I concur that older adults, those with comorbidities, and individuals deemed high-risk should follow medical advice and receive COVID vaccines, alongside their seasonal influenza shots.

 

(I’m not looking to reopen the COVID vaccine debate, but it’s worth noting that at the start of the pandemic, when vaccines first became available, there was considerable uncertainty about who exactly was ‘at risk.’ At that time, I was comfortable taking the vaccine as a precaution. However, given my current circumstances, I now feel it unnecessary for myself. Were I over 65 and travelling, though, I would likely choose to receive it.).

 

 

Fair point, I think that its important that people should not be labeled ant vax just because they make their own informed decisions such as you and I and countless others have done.

Answered above already: Its not necessary for the general population...  So no.

 

But, if I were bitten by an unknown dog or stray cat etc... then of course, I'd get the vaccine.

 

 

So, we'd agree that any 'regular person' who is not affected by something such as covid, is not anti vax? 

But high risk individuals should take the vaccine? 

I'd go with that.

There has been a threefold increase in reported rabies cases in cats and dogs compared to last year.

 

Seven rabies-related deaths have occurred so far this year – all of them entirely preventable with prompt medical treatment and the rabies vaccine.

 

Is this just another scare story? Perhaps. But more importantly, it's a timely reminder: if you're bitten by an unknown animal, seek medical attention immediately and get the rabies shot. It could save your life.

 

No doubt someone will try to draw a clumsy comparison between rabies fatalities and road deaths – but that misses the point entirely. The existence of one risk doesn't negate the importance of addressing another.

 

... and as far as dogs are concerned, that means dealing with strays too....

 

 

Have you had Rabies pre-exposure prophylaxis? 

Just now, richard_smith237 said:

 

I'm referring to a handful of folk on this forum who are 100% against ALL vaccines...   any...  and that goes for Measles (MMR), Polio etc...   (so not just a covid vax discussion - which again is separate conversation, but also somewhat based around the hysteria of the anti-vax movement)....

 

And yes, as far as tested and proven vaccines are concerned... if someone is anti-vaccination, be it Rabies, Polio, MMR etc... then I am most definitely not with you, and by very definition, against you (and whoever the 'us' is you refer to).

 

 

Fair enough, I'd go with 100% against all vaccines are anti vax.

Have you had a monkey pox jab, its tried and tested, monkey pox can kill you.

Last year there were 230 plus attacks on police offers in the UK. 96% were carried out by white men, usually drunk and disorderly. 

Where are you getting your figures from, those numbers are fantasy.

Judging from that statement and the picture you posted previously, I dont think you have much to worry about.

To answer Liverpool Lou's question, "where did the attack take place".? Nobody seems keen to say.

 

I could not post in the conventional manner as every time I click on quote it doesn't want to know.

 

Is this a personal best for consecutive posts Lou.?

He's just lonely I think, but i do think its a forum best. 

There you go, thats me 2 on the trot!

So I don't care what nonsense you point out.

Get real.

What nonsense are you talking about?

The OP said keep away from Pattaya as its dangerous, and I pointed out the assault happened in Bangkok. 

You mentioned Chonburi..........

Do try to keep up.
