I'm 67 and triple vaccinated but there's no guarantee that I won't get sick

So you at least know that triple vaxxed can be infected. And guess what, infected people can spread the virus.

So please lock yourself in for not beeing a threat to others. Thank you.

According to the picture the man is a likely thread to to health service too.

Whom's ICU bed will he occupy, if he's collapsing due to his eating or drinking habits? Hiw many nurses will suffer a slipped disc when turning him from one side to the other?

The connection is clear. You are defending the right of unvaccinated people to seek medical care. I posted some push back against that concept by medical professionals themselves.

LoL. "Push back"? Even you should know that you can find a link for each and everything in the net.

Some doctors and nurses expressed frustration at the surge among unvaccinated patients, saying they could not understand why someone would ignore a doctor's advice to get vaccinated but then seek a medical professional's help once sick with COVID-19.

So what? Other doctors and nurses demonstrate since months in France, Germany, Italy and elsewhere against a mandatory vaccination.

Wonder how you manage it again and again to reply to posts without a connection to what you've quoted.

1. I have no idea how you arrive at that conclusion. Vaccinations prevent illness, not cause it.

This was not my conclusion, it might be your misunderstanding.

You said, unvaccinated are a thread to others. OK, true. But as everybody should know now, vaccinated can get infections (and they do by very high numbers). Who's infected can spread the virus, vaxxed or not.

to 2:

Why should overweight people, if not genetecly caused, be treated differently to smokers and others, that you want to exclude from "free" medical care? They too produce huge costs to insurances/societies.

And no matter if a country has a mandatory health insurance or a tax financed free health care: The unvaxxed, the smoker, the drinker and the fat fast food junkie, they all pay for the insurance or they pay tax to finance healthcare.

They didn't 'exclude' their own citizens, they did require (at one point in time) citizens returning home to do 2 week isolation on arrival in Australia.

 

That's not 'exclude'.

It was a mandatory and costly hotel-quarantaine. So their own citizens were excluded, if they could not afford such a stay.

Green Park Resort. Test was made there and returned after ca. 8 hours, so I did not have to stay over night.

The rooms there have a balkony. Important when you're locked in.

Roomservice works.

I would go there again for T&G

Personally, I think that any unvaccinated people that find themselves in an emergency ward should pay for their own healthcare, AND be sued by any vaccinated people that can't get a bed in an emergency ward. 

Personally I think no one should have to work to make his living, anybody should have a Tesla S and pigs should be able to fly.

Most other countries now use less invasive PCR tests that use a swab from the throat

That was how I was PCR tested on entry.

 I'm also okay with denying those who choose not to be vaccinated and therefore put themselves and others at risk to be refused any treatment if they contract Covid and then want to take up valuable medical resources

1. Vaccinated put themselves and others at risk too. 

2. So you'd be fine if smokers were excluded from any treatment if the health problem is related to smoking. And people who drink alcohol have to be refused for a liver treatment?  Don't forget the fat ones. Why should they have the right to be treated. Everybody knows about the dangers of Adipositas.

And before I forget: In countries with mandatory health insurance (most of Europe), all those antivaxxers, smokers, drinkers pay for themselves and others.

Bad luck. You will have to do your own cooking, cleaning and laundry. Have you considered getting a maid in? Some have their own uniforms.

Even when my GF's not imprisoned, I prefere to eat outside instead of enjoying her very limited cooking skills and luckily my condo provides a laundry service. Room maids come twice a week.

But uniformed ones would be a temptation :-).

As long as my favorite restaurants are not closed, I will survive ????

I miss my son But ok I can stand a couple of days without "papa, what is this, do that, let's go there, I want to have..."

Due to excessive breathing, jogging is a threat to public health. I'm no jogger, so it has to be prohibited.

Nobody I know has been asked for an opinion on vaccination, so how can you claim it's a majority opinion?

I fear after a nearly two years enduring propaganda overkill it is.

But democrazy is not just a 51/49 thing. Minority rights are an essential factor.

One of the early stories I heared when I was new in Thailand, told by a cute young lady from Isan was like that:

"As kids when we were out after dark and saw a ghost, we just turned our backs to it, tore down our pants a bit and shaked our butts. Because that would scare the ghost an it left us alone."

Read again. I spoke about the organizer who provided wrong information to the players.

The Australian response to covid was highly effective up to recently when the wheels fell off and now few countries can infect the population with corona virus better than Australia now. They have gone from virtually no COVID cases to a meltdown of cases.

 

I didn't doubt that. So what has your reply todo with my post, you've quoted?

It happened today:

My GF and my son were positive on an ATK test yesterday (contact persons), today they had to show up for a PCR. No symptoms at all.

Positive again and immedeately they were transfered to such a hospitel. They were told they'd have to stay there for at least 5 days.

After that another "medical examination" would be done and after that, they might be sent home to quarantaine for antoher five (or 10, I don't remember) days.

GF = Thai, son is Thai and German citizen)
