You always shower with your watch on? sleep ???

 

I’d assume most people take their watch on....     some silly thoughts on here so far - the owner was just careless with his belongs and got ripped off... thats about it.

Yes I have a Breitling, which I shower and sleep in hasn't been off my wrist in years.

Makes no sense to me, Very few leather strapped Rolex's about so why take it off to shower, and if you did why would you take it off and put it in yours shorts?

Yes, been there. It's got an American name. That's all I'll say. Not difficult to figure out. The map location by @RAZZELL is fairly close.  

 

I've heard its a bit of a Love Shack!!

The fact that he has been on the run for nearly a year now suggests it hasn't been that simple finding him, the sad thing is he will probably have friends and family helping him out financially despite his heinous crime, probably spun them a story denying it and they probably fell for it.

What filters would that be as a KN95 has no filters.

Think you are talking about valves, all surgical masks have filters.

Opinions vary greatly amongst how and where one picks up the virus.,,,,,so many different ways even wearing a mask.  Yet you and others keep spouting the rhetoric as "The mask protects others from you, yet it works the other way around as well, unless you never breathe in.......

No rhetoric,  just posting my experience, funny how other people's are rhetoric but your own views should never be challenged , I'm sure the filters in your mask are made to filter covid though!

Still double masking myself with a KN95 and a Cloth KN95 over the paper one on our trips out. Gotta love the looks I get from the unmasked foreigners.  The look of "This guy is afraid of the world". Nope, sorry but being safe and protecting oneself while enjoying life is not an issue for me.      

Pretty sure masks are more likely to protect other people from your germs rather than vice versa, I always wear a mask at my workplace and I still got covid (Delta 3 weeks ago, horrific,  still suffering) from a work colleague despite the mask, no one vould believe it as I was one of only 2 or 3 out of a hundred employees who continued to wear one , 18 at my work got it, so 70 odd who didn't wear masks avoided it!

Tbf  they might of done him a favor banning him for a year!

I think it is due to be updated later today UK time.

 

My Bad, hadn't read it through properly, fingers crossed (for me anyway!).

Just updated and Thailand still on redlist.

By 'cases' you presumably mean positive PCR tests. 

So: what percentage of people are being tested in India? I'm ready to bet that it's much less than in Thailand.

India has more tests overall but less tests per 1m people, a good site for reference when comparing different countries.

Wrong. It does both. But it's a numbers game. No vaccine is 100% in preventing infection. Which no one claims either. Even if it's 90%, 100 out of 1000 vaccinated will get infected.

 

 

 

Only if everyone of those 1000 vaccinated come into contact with someone with covid, under the circumstances to get infected, my 14 year old son was sat next to a classmate for a whole day who contracted the delta variant but he did not get infected, so many more variables involved.

Zero side effects are not a good sign........sore arm, fatigue, mild fever, headaches are all powerful indicators the vaccine has worked.

 Not true, the older you are the less chance of side effects, as well as the AZ being more effective in the elderly.

I'm pretty sure a Thai firm was assisting in production of the Oxford Vaccine, you would of thought that was a good opportunity to get a foot in the door?

EDIT: Just saw above post regarding Thai Production!

The sense you mention is quite common but that does NOT make it true! Random testing depends on how many people and their locations. Given that those who turn out to be negative (a lot more than 99%) in this country with such an idea, the chances of finding anyone who is infected or even asymptomatic is very unlikely and for all I know, that maybe the reason random testing is not done.

You don't know from evidence what the Thai government wants: it is your opinion, not a fact!

And you accused him of making suppositions!!!

more tests due to more people with symptoms. 
 

Not quite true, my wife is a uk nursery teacher, a child came in with a high temperature, classroom closed for 3 days, deep cleansed, and my wife and her assistants sent to get tested that day, all fine, child had gastroenteritis not covid, an awful lot of symptoms connected to covid, if every country was to test every person with a 'symptom' the amount of tests in the world would be over ten fold what it is.
