EU Diplomats Concerned Over Possible Dissolution Of Major Party: Anutin
dinsdale replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I guess you know nothing about diplomatic language. "sustained possibility" means they're onto something. Ambassadors and senior diplomats are not idiots and this information is coming from more than 6 nations embassies (or consulates) in BKK. Asking questions? "The EU diplomats were known to have inquired with the Bhumjaithai leader...." -

Deregulation or privatisation never leads to lower prices. Profits always comes 1st. -

Yes things are different this time I agree. If Prayut wants a people's revolution this will be the way to do it. -
Thailand Tourism Fee to be postponed until September
dinsdale replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I have never left my WP at my workplace, it sits in my passport case and my pink card is in my wallet. Seems like they are actually starting to think about this thought bubble policy from empty headed idiots but it's going to take a while. Still think adding it to departure tax is much easier and I'm sure a lot cheaper to do. -
So booze ban the week before the election for early voting is because 3% of registered voters registered to vote on this day. I don't care what anyone says but this is straight from the minds of complete imbiciles. Of course these absolute empty headed idiots who come up with this complete nonsense will be well and truly smashed Sat night and Sunday.

Thai Senate committee discusses foreign satellite regulations

Had a similar thought. It's not mentioned in the article but my 1st thought was China then Starlink. My guess would be China. -
Experts unite to oppose govt’s cannabis legalisation
dinsdale replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Sounds like a dope cake or a spiked drink. Spiked drink you probabkly would have passed out and apart from that why would your drink have been spiked? Baked stuff can be quite strong and it takes time to come on. If you don't know you've ingested a drug then SURPRISE about 1-1/2 hrs later. p.s. how long did it last -
Guess the vaccines are running out of their due by date and really have to empty those warehouses full of masks. Already discussed before is the % of increase. Lets for example say there's been an increase of 500% You would think WOW that's a lot. 1 to 5 is a 500% increase. Ahhhh! That's not much then. No where in this absurd, alarmist article does it mention that these sub-variants are not severe. Why? No where does it say that the WHO considers XBB.1.16 a variant under monitoring. Not a variant of concern. Why? No data on age or comorbidities. Why? Died with or died from? No information. Why? Because facts are not alarmist when the facts show there's nothing to be alarmed about. Just a complete junk artcle. Pitiful.

There is no hell and there is no heaven. If you can prove otherwise with evidence and without quoting the bible please do so. State sanctioned murder should not exist on this planet. Just lock him up.

Thai parents advised to watch for measles in their young children
dinsdale replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
"In 2020, 23 million children missed out on all basic childhood vaccines. That’s the highest number seen since 2009 and 3.7 million more than in 2019." https://www.unicef.org/stories/measles-cases-spiking-globally Maybe a focus on another virus had something to do with this. -
Festival turns fatal: Covid surges post-Songkran
dinsdale replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
There is of course the chance you have had covid just didn't know it. I saw something a while back but still regarding Omicron that around 25% of people are asymptomatic. As for Thais wearing masks, mostly improperly or using the disposable surgical masks, last night I yet again saw a Thai pull down their mask to sneeze. I really couldn't say how many times I've seen this happen. The thought process is the mask protects them when in reality masks are more for reduction of spread. Reduction of the spread of Omicron? Nigh on impossible masks or not. -
Thai parents advised to watch for measles in their young children
dinsdale replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
As I mentioned above One dose of MMR vaccine is 93% effective against measles, 78% effective against mumps, and 97% effective against rubella. Two doses of MMR vaccine are 97% effective against measles and 88% effective against mumps. https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd/mmr/public/index.html#:~:text=One dose of MMR vaccine is 93% effective against measles,and 88% effective against mumps. After 2 doses 97% efficacy against measles is very good. Obviously some like yourself and your brothers may still get it but herd immunity should protect the population as a whole. This is why anti-vaxers and those not vaccinated for other reasons puts the elimination of measles at risk as it it still able to circulate. -
I guess people won't stock up pre 6 pm on Sat then thus avoiding 'ticking the wrong box' on voting day. The logic is just incredible. Bit like alcohol ban Buddhist holidays were everyone stocks up and drinks on their day off if they get one. Especially if it's a Fri or Mon. It's just so infantile.

Fact: There have been no deaths shown to be related to the vaccine in healthy people. There have been rare cases of deaths from vaccine side effects among children who are immune compromised, which is why it is recommended that they don’t get the vaccine. That’s why it is so important that everyone who can get vaccinated does so, to protect those who can’t. There are possible side effects from the vaccine, including sore arm (from the shot), fever, mild rash, temporary pain/stiffness in the joints, and a very small risk of febrile seizures or allergic reaction . Vaccines undergo a scientifically rigorous research and vetting process before they are approved. Getting the vaccine is much safer than getting measles. https://www.idsociety.org/public-health/measles/myths-and-facts/ The vaccine IS safe. Zero deaths (except from the above mentioned rare cases) from the vaccine in 60 yrs from it's inception. The same of course can not be said about a recent vaccine. As for efficacy the CDC states on the MMr vaccine: One dose of MMR vaccine is 93% effective against measles, 78% effective against mumps, and 97% effective against rubella. Two doses of MMR vaccine are 97% effective against measles and 88% effective against mumps. https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd/mmr/public/index.html#:~:text=One dose of MMR vaccine is 93% effective against measles,and 88% effective against mumps. -

I've taken care of that in a later post. 61,000 deaths globally 2020. As for harmless as a child and terrible when grown up: Measles is a highly contagious, serious disease caused by a virus. Before the introduction of measles vaccine in 1963 and widespread vaccination, major epidemics occurred approximately every 2–3 years and measles caused an estimated 2.6 million deaths each year. More than 140 000 people died from measles in 2018 – mostly children under the age of 5 years, despite the availability of a safe and effective vaccine. Unvaccinated young children are at highest risk of measles and its complications, including death. https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/measles#:~:text=Most measles-related deaths are,over the age of 30. -
