Don t worry, alcohol is a nasty drug, much more dangerous than pot. Not even close...

However there will be fewer of them and the price of drugs will rise as supplies are curtailed resulting in fewer people being addicted because there are fewer available drugs and the cost of those available is more than many can afford.
You see, you explain exactly what you think work, and doesn t work for 50 years all around the world. Yet you want more of it...

It takes 1 mn on google, no time to suffer if you hold your breath, don t worry and educate yourself, you don t know what you are talking about.

Take away the beautiful women selling sex cheaply and lax (no) government policy stopping it, and BKK wouldn't make the top 100. Don't have to be a genius to figure that out
Of course, every expat familly enjoys Bangkok only because of ptostitutes like you do.... No you are not a genius by the way...

Somebody took a bag of all the worst variants, shook it up and produced the most heavily mutated version yet. Just in time for Christmas. Thanks China
I follow your posts on covid every day, they are well informed and I tend to agree with most of them, but this thank you China stuff you just wrote is just pure idiotic racism.

It dosent mater ireland has 92% no sino vax now going into lock down vaccines just slow hospitization
They are not going into lockdown, they close the pub and install a curfew. And maybe the temperature over there pushed them this way.

I thought he was going to break down during his update.
People were leaving messages in the chat saying they had cancelled or postponed their Thailand trips.
One of his biggest supporters sent a message saying that he wouldn't be coming to Thailand if he couldn't get a drink at one of Nick's bars.
Many of these bar owners helped feed Thai's during the lockdown and the thanks they get is being drummed out of business.
I like Nick and his friend and watch their show on sunday night, they are nice guys and the show is entertaining.
But, Nick has said again and again covid is a scam, masks are useless, he s anti vax and would like everything open imediatly without restrictions.+ They see themself as eternal victims of this covid scam. I believe they are not alone in the pattaya bar owners community, and I wonder if I were a governement office if I would trust these guys to enforce any social distance or vaccine rule. Of course not and it may be why they are forced to stay closed when other are slowly opening in Bangkok, phuket etc... If they took it as it is, a worldwide pandemic, a serious problem and not a scam, maybe they would have made better plan instead of complaining over and over they need to wear a mask here and there. They are nice people and I want to have some beers with them but their anylisis on the situation is pretty bad, and nothing makes them change, they just complain and complain..... Because to them there s no problem with covid. it kills less than 1% etc, you know that sound....

Missing link from above. Last two columns page 13. Actually indicates vaccinated more harmful to the unvaccinated.
That is absolutly not what it indicates. My god, you pick one column in a 27 pages document to make your point when everything else tells the opposite, and it says on the page be careful what you make of the numbers here because it does not say what you think.
something more about he UK

It's going to be carnage in Thailand if they reopen soon.
'UK confirms 45,066 new Covid cases, 157 deaths today
In the UK, the government confirmed today that there had been a further 45,066 lab-confirmed Covid cases.
It is the highest daily figure since mid-July.
The official data also confirmed a further 157 people had died within 28 days of testing positive for Covid as of Thursday'
UK has one of the highest vaccination rates in the world as well as quite a bit of acquired immunity, and used the very best vaccines. So I'd expect Thailand to reach about 80k plus within a month or two and possibly hundreds of deaths per day.
British kids are not vaccinated, that s why they are rushing to vaccinate kids in Thailand with Pfizer at the moment. I m more optimistic than you, let s hope as many people as possible take the vaccine asap.

I understand the malls are packed but I think many at the moments already received at least one dose of vaccines. I can not find the stats for Bangkok, I don t know where to search. It will be a good test and interesting to check the numbers next week especially the numbers in hospitals. I think we may be able to see the first real benefit of vaccination as we saw inother countries. I ll wait untill I m fully vaccinated + one week before start to go to shopping malls etc..

1 hour ago, matchar said:The Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine has been linked to distinctive, but rare, blood clots that also appear with low levels of platelets (which help clots form) in the blood.
The risk of a clot is roughly one in 100,000 for people in their 40s, but rises to one in 60,000 for people in their 30s. Two in a million people in their 40s died rising to four per million people in their 30s.
At the same time, the risks of developing severe Covid, if you catch the virus, fall in younger age groups.
Dr June Raine, the chief executive of the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), said the benefits continued to outweigh the risks for the "vast majority of people".
She added: "The balance of benefits and risks is very favourable for older people, but is more finely balanced for younger people."
I appreciate your reply, I just notice that there is probably less risk to die from the astrazeneca vaccine even in your 20s than the 10 mns tuktuk ride I take coming home from Makro every week. Maybe you should take that in consideration instead of putting your job at risk.

On the other hand would a business take responsibility if an employee suffers serious side effects or death linked to a vaccine they were forced to take?
I'm not anti-vax and I'm quite happy to take Pfizer if I'm eventually offered it but I'm not willing to take AstraZeneca since that one has a higher risk of very dangerous side effects, which in younger healthy people is similar to the risk from covid.
If I was old I would be more willing to take AstraZeneca because the risk from covid would be higher than the risk from the vaccine.
No, the business does not force you to take the vaccine, you have the choice to take the vaccine or find yourself another job where it is not required.
I would hope that if an employee agrees to take only a vaccine that is not currently available but maybe soon, he can find an agreement with his employer, but that s up to the employer, when the school opens, teachers need to be there.
I m not sure where you find informations that tell you the Astrazeneca has similar risks than covid for young people, I suggest you check more on that beacuse that may not be true...

I am posting this for other people. There are many people who already had Covid, so they are fine to go to China without getting any jabs. I posted the link to the Chinese Embassy in London where you can see this written.
I already had Covid. I am not taking any of the mRNA jabs. Firstly, I'm not taking them on principle, as they are an unnecessary response to a mild flu. The endless boosters and digital surveillance "passport" are an over reach by government. Secondly, I don't want to end up with heart trouble associated with the mRNA jabs and I don't want to risk ADE when I'm exposed to Covid again. Thirdly, my natural immunity is better than the jabs.
Is that your source of information?
If you refuse the surveillance passport and reach over by governments, you are not gonna be happy in China.
You have your opinion on Mrna vaccines, and it s ok but I don t want to have any teacher who refuses to get vaccinated to be near my kid and I guess it s the same for chinese parents. It s not personal, it s just a fact. And keep your BS about natural immunity for yourself please.

I thought China was getting rid of all the foreign teachers anyway. Is that not the case?
It s not as easy as before to teach in China. They are very careful now on who gets a working visa for teachhing and who doesn t. And forget about working without a work permit.

China may open up to teachers in March 2022. Worth thinking about. Avoid the agencies and go direct to schools to get the best deal. Look on the forums to see how people are doing this.
I am a pureblood. I will never accept any of these freak jabs.
If you think you are gonna be able to work in a school in China without being vaccinated, you are gonna have a big surprise. You will not be able to fly in. Let us know how it goes pureblood.

I got the first dose of moderna this morning in Bangkok hospital, Bangkok. Very well organised, very efficient and very proffessional. I will get the second dose on 8th of november, looking forward to it. So far no side effect for me and my wife.
