You can also develop heart conditions with out vaccine. Hypertension is the number one reason why people in their 50th and up develop heart problems.
PS. I do not know the ratio between people wish they didn't or did, but for me I have 0 friends that regret the vaccine shot and 3 friends that regret it and one had to pay the price with his life.
Everyone I know who has taken the vax have said they won't take any more boosters, and that they don't believe it was necessary to take it in the first place. Because it wasn't.
I'm unvaccinated, and I know with 100% certainty that my decision was not a mistake, there are no unknown 5-years-down-the-line side effects of not taking a covid vax.
100% of the people who are vaccinated cannot be that certain.

The vaccines prevent you from getting seriously sick. Not really prevent you from getting it. And keep in mind. The Moderna boosters in Thailand. They are generation one type. Not the newest that protects against Omicron and the latest variants.
The number of hospitalizations and serious illness are way down. Due to the vaccines.
And the question is. Are people who say “ Oh they had symptoms and it was nothing “. Did they get tested and actually have Covid? Or did they have the flu or viral infection? Thinking they had Covid?
And I find the people that are not vaccinated or downplay the vaccine . If they test positive and have serious symptoms or are hospitalized. They whine about how they should have gotten vaccinated.And my brother, who got the vax, developed heart problems, and was forced to retire at 50, now whines about how he shouldn't have got the vax.

No one has looked at me funny or asked me to put a mask on in the cinema or on public transport.

The ones wearing masks while exercising in the gym are the best.

I know the new 45-day entry stamp begins then, but are there any changes with covid requirements?
Will a negative test still be required after October 1st? It seems now that covid extensions have ended, covid restrictions should too.

Not because he "had been drinking" then? He was there with a bottle in his hand?
Must be a different video
Another utterly pointless post, proving you have absolutely nothing of value to say. Double-digit IQ keyword warrior.

It's taken you 3 days to come up with that pearl of wisdom - OK you've been away for the weekend!
Just to recap:- "2 men on a motorbike at 1am carrying beers. I'd place my bets that they were drinking."
My post was made to point out that your post was merely an assumption which was utterly pointless. You assumed that because they were in possession of drink at 1 am in the morning they had been drinking/were drunk, and were therefore the ones to blame for the accident. We now know that this was not the case,(CCTV) so if anybody's post was pointless, it was yours!
You talk more garbage than was onboard the truck. From the video I watched, it looks like the bike came from behind the truck, and tried to overtake it on the right, as it was turning right. So I would hardly say the rider is blameless, his driving seems wreckless, and my guess is that was because he was drinking.

".............1 am carrying beers" Wrong - the beers were under the seat of the bike!
"...........they were drinking" Wrong, they were on a motor bike following a garbage truck!
OK - call me pedant if you must!
Not a pedant, your reply to my post is just utterly pointless.

Here we go again. The 2 Farangs were obviously drunken so they are the culprits, Van driver innocent, Case closed no further investigation needed.

Very few are wearing them in Vietnam, almost nobody.
I'm back in Thailand in a few weeks, I will join the ranks of the non-maskers.- 4

Nothing will ever be normal again. Not here. Tourism will never be the same. Gangsters are running the nation, dressed up as officers, pretending to care.
But, I went for a nice motorbike ride yesterday, and felt very grateful to be here. Compared to my broken down nation of America, Thailand's problems are manageable, and life is quite good for most of us.
Gangsters run just about every nation. Some are just more sophisticated than others in their gangsterism.

40 minutes ago, Liverpool Lou said:Perhaps it's as simple as the translation meaning to say "He was going to get it repaired"? Probably easier in Pattaya than the middle of nowhere especially as he (the tranny) was, allegedly, planning to follow his boyfriend to Pattaya.
Not in a million years do I buy that would happen. There are phone repair shops in Prasat, and in my experience even in more touristic locations, phone repair shops are the type of places that don't have very good English, you're better speaking Thai or going with someone who does.
I don't believe any person would be comfortable to hand their phone over to someone traveling hundreds of miles away, for them to then travel those hundreds of miles alone and phoneless.
Having a phone is one of the main things you need these days when traveling. It's how people book flights, check tickets/times, navigate etc.
It's like, you know if you lose everything else, but still have your phone, you'll be okay.
With a phone, you're never adrift, without it, you are.
For me, him having her phone skews guilt heavily towards him.

The monk / dog / mother entanglement is definitely a twisty tidbit.
But this guy had the ladyboys phone? "He was going to repair it". Yea right, that has 0% plausibility.

Not sure why they're referring to the transgender as a 'he' and 'him.' So many other news outlets refer to them as 'she' & 'her'. This victim certainly looked 'far enough transed' to be worthy of the female pronouns... at least if so many others seem to deserve it.
They say "transgender man", which technically, is a biological woman who lives as a man.

Every red-blooded male has been fooled by ladyboy prostitutes, to varying degrees. I'm not suggesting the deceased was a prostitute but ....
I was fooled by one who said she had 6 inches. By heck, it was about 4.

"It is an opportunity for people and the state to earn income from marijuana and hemp," said Anutin Charnvirakul
This is not marijuana as the rest of the world knows, but only hemp at 0.2% THC. This is a joke and has not medical or other potential with this very weak strain of THC.
In California the THC of recreational "weed" is 20% - 33% THC. I'm not sure what level of THC the medical grade is in the various US states that allow "medical marijuana".
From what I've read, the 0.2% limit only applies to cannabis oil.
There is no THC limit placed on weed that people will use recreationally.
Still an odd law, I don't know the logic of it, but it won't affect 99% of those interested in recreational weed.

December and January were massive tourism months – but still less than 50% of 2019 average

45 days on entry, extend 30 days. Border run, same again. That's 5 months pretty hassle free.
