Joinaman

just been in Nakhon Phanom hospital this morning .

Stood to one side while men in Hazmat suits wheel a covid patient into the  lift up to the 2 nd floor

Then watched as they wheeled the same patient through the normal ward into the isolation section !!

And they want to prevent the spread of covid  ??????

That's looking at it all wrong. In the US, with around 50% fully vaccinated,  about 99% of those in the ICU are not fully vaccinated. The pandemic there is now a pandemic only for the unvaccinated. 

 

So go for the Darwin award, covid edition, and don't get vaccinated. If you're too stupid to get vaccinated, you likely shouldn't procreate anyway.

 You in the good ole USA ?

or in Thailand, where you have mor enhance of dying crossing the road

Not air. The bags are filled with nitrogen gas which is inert and odourless.

In summary

- The Covid 19 coronavirus is almost certainly real, even if it originated from a lab. or not

- Wearing masks is inconvenient, but helps everyone if they're not exercising 

- The 'person of colour' and his Russian hooker know the rules and they should have at least put the mask on to be served (which is what I do)

- The fat whitey should mind his own business. There are staff to enforce rules

- This forum is the hub of expertise

- Can we close this thread now?

can we close all threads about covid now, getting boring and pointless

Let's put it this way so I don't get a suspension. Would you walk into a room full of infected people with a mask and expect not to catch it?

how would you know if they are infected ?

Would you walk in that room with the cheap masks that people wear ?

Masks that are in general use by people

note the w

Missed it

note the words on the boxes of masks

Not for Medical Purposes!

Worn to prevent one of the worst viruses in history ?

No, I am not having a laugh. In Central Pattaya, where I live, everyone is wearing a mask, including people walking on the street and riding motorcycles. You have to look VERY hard to find anyone without one.... and it has been this way for a very long time.

 

 

time to move to Isaan then

If you prevent someone catching it you prevent the spread. There, now you learnt two things today!

So masks prevent the spread, and also prevent the catching of it 

amazing

Where is this "around here" where a very small percentage of people are wearing masks. In Pattaya everyone is wearing masks. You can't get into a store without one and even on motorcycles everyone is wearing one.

 

 Try Isaan 

worn to enter large stores, then often lowered 

smaller local stores, not many , 

outside, in cars, on bikes, your having a laugh !!

although often see the idiots on their Waves, wearing a mask while bombing around without helmets, lights, etc,

Not that I immediately trust the same government that authorized this cocktail mix to admit fault, a simple Google search indicates that causes of brain stem swelling are:

 

Fluid collection within the brain tissue, called cerebral edema, can result from numerous causes, including infections, trauma, stroke, brain tumors, certain toxic substances, complications of diabetes, chemical imbalances, abuse of opioids, extreme high blood pressure (malignant hypertension), or high altitude sickness.

 

So, we can probably rule out opioid abuse and altitude sickness.  
 

That leaves infection, trauma, stroke, brain tumor, toxic substances, diabetes, chemical imbalances, and high blood pressure.  
 

If it was the vaccine, that would probably fall under infection since the whole point of a vaccine is to give you a little infection to help your body learn how to fight a big infection.  
 

The big question is whether this was the only factor.  
 

She could have already had brain stem swelling from another cause and the vaccine put it over the top.  The straw the camel’s back, if you will.

 

It will be interesting to see if there are any more cases like this one or if this is an isolated case.   

i love all those magic words in this post

Could, maybe, probably, possibly, if, , they sound so good, yet mean so little

My son (50+) got jabbed yesterday in BKK at a walk-in.  I'm 78 but live in Pattaya!  Only when we're all safe will it be wise to re-open Pattaya.

why is it not safe in Pattaya

you wear a mask when out, you sanitize when touching things, so why the running scared ?

or are you saying that the masks don't work ?

I recorded the event live.  I was there.  I posted on YouTube, and you are correct  many came on and said it was race, the thing is everyone else had on mask except for him and his white Russian girlfriend 

so if everyone had a mask on except them, how does that effect them ? Masks make you safe from Covid, don't they ? 

not saying he is right or wrong, but why does it bother you, as long as you are wearing the mask ?

So the virus itself is not a threat, and people are not filling up the hospitals because they don't have covid. Additionally, opening up the country as you subscribe to will not add an even bigger burden on the medical staff or facilities in your view? Do you really believe this?, Can you please tell us more as maybe we can all learn from your scientific evidence.

people with covid are only filling up hospitals due the the way they are forced to isolate in the hospital, instead of elsewhere. Very few of the people who tested positive actually have symptoms requiring hospital treatment 

Deaths to date 3,673 ? out of how many, 69 million ?

So not really deadly is it, compared to the many other ways people die in Thailand

If it wasn't for the media hype , most people would never have heard of this "deadly" virus in Thailand 

I'm missing a lot of my normal exercise lately.

I like lifting weights most days, usually the 330ml size, nice and cold 

But maybe its time i upped the weights to 620ml , more exercise !!

It took Pfizer and Moderna 10 years to develop the mRNA technology, and Thailand thinks they can do it in 10 months???

And when have they finished testing these vaccines ? 2023 ?

next year, wow

Glad I'm not in a rush for these vaccines

He died in the gutter with no help from anyone. Don't use his tragedy to make clichéd, specious arguments about causes of death. The fallacy of the with/ from debate has moved on.

well thats a bummer for him. Guess you were not there for him either
