That’s a “party?”

“Prof Cath Noakes, an airborne infection expert from the University of Leeds, says someone would have to cough right at you, at the moment you're inhaling, for an infection to happen.”

Allowing prices to rise let’s businesses expand to deal with rising demand. Without this food delivery will run into shortages.

What the government gives the government can take away.

Given that a vaccination doesn’t guarantee someone being non-infectious - why quarantine when a test can be given on arrival with results the same day?

Or are the tests unreliable?

The average Thai is several times more likely to be struck dead by lightning than by covid.

Bad idea to have no savings for an emergency when traveling and not enough friends or family to lend some money.

Suddenly people are keen to eat their greens.

The evidence that lockdowns reduce  trends in infection is where?

The evidence that lockdowns reduce the “cases” is where?

Is touching sea animals more or less ethical than slaughtering fish, pigs and whatever else, to put them on peoples plates?

How many hotels can sustain losses for 5 years?

Figure is closer to 90%.

A situation a taser would be more appropriate for.

Taxes are a lot higher in so called “democracies.”

“They will put up prices at the drop of a hat and need to be regulated by the government to keep them remotely fair and in line.”

I’ll pass on journalists giving economic advice.

Prices can’t rise more than people are prepared to pay. Setting price caps pretty much ensures a shortage and creates resistance to new actors entering the market to compete prices back down. Take a look at Venezuela to see the widespread disaster this kind of state meddling creates.

Being disposable to the very system they enforce.

Neither driver has their stuff together. Terrible.

Thailand, and Asian society in general, doesn’t have millions of sickly elderly people crowded into “care homes” where they eat badly, rarely see sunshine and who’s carers have little incentive to concern themselves with hygiene. Nor does Thailand have a significant population of obese and diabetics.

When will the roads be made “safe”?

There’s no way a virus gets through the plastic face shield. It will project your whole face eyes included. But of course it won’t deter people from touching their faces which is a big problem with them.
