the UK economy is shooting itself in the foot,basically the much vaunted NHS is a dead duck and has been for yrs,its the real problem.all this luftwaffe over st pauls propaganda is just that,500 000 volunteers to make it work speaks volumes.we dont see that in any other EU country.the nos of dead are small 11k in a pop of 65 million.if eventually 20k die that as a %age is.....approx 0.03% ,other countries have similar problems and are moving forward IE spain and austria.the counting and info is so vague,very ill people who are then contracting the disease are counted as corona victims but they would be fine if they didnt have these bad diseases,its a bit thin.one illustrious gov expert said 60% of dead would have been dead by xmas anyway.according to statistics i read in the daily telegraph average deaths for this time of yr are a little lower than normal,i guess due to little flu etc as people are not mixing and wearing masks etc.so decision time-throw away your currency ,savings, pensions, job, career,business and future or get on with it. so few die.its all about the 99.9% of us.the govt is very handy with the war comparison.so people die.the somme ,3rd ypres.more in a morning than ever will die in this and all young and fit,please pass on this war comparison its rather pathetic.the people who went thru that were not snowflakes.its insulting to them.

chinas best friend-dont wear masks only if ur sick,dont ban china flights,ignore what chinese drs say and dont say a word as theyre locked up or disappear.now its full speed ahead for china and the rest of you do what we say.ummmmm very shortly itll loosen up,it has too here millions are out of work all across asia ,theres no free rides in s e asia unless ur are one of the special people,no work no pay,the cure will kill the patient a long time before the disease will,we have a minute no of casualties here.tell them to give us free testing,lots of it too and do one positive thing.

the point is a very good one,she needs to be allowed to make it.the behaviour,very PRC. like the drs there.this comes from a govt that s allowed china flights in at a time we all knew it was a full blown epidemic.legislate so that large gatherings form and the country has very wealthy people who will not help the people theyre duty bound to help.look in the mirror.after this is done people will remember you

i sent emails to my MP in Uk in jan asking him to ban china hk flights and also sent to major newspapers .i asked they suspend flights for 2 mnths.no reply from govt.enough said.i was a long term hk and taiwan resident im trapped here at the moment but it could be worse.what we see is political ineptitude world wide,we are locked up here over 30 deaths in 3 mnths and millions are sacked with no support,health system thats not available to the majority of people and govt policies that actually herd people together instead of the opposite.govt worldwide is incompetent saving a few exceptions,taiwan is one and look at the WHO reaction to that??!we have little hope in govt and orgs helping us its sad.we must hope the virus dies off in the good weather as thats what seems to be the case here.hopefully theyll come to their senses and call off this hysterical nonsense. people are being threatened far more by poverty ,collapsing businesses ,unemployment etc than this virus which has killed less people in 3 mnths than die in one day on thai rds.how many have died of flu in thailand or UK over the same time period,i feel less than usual due to social distancing and masks.im getting tired of being told what to do by people that arnt qualified to mop out a toilet

its not a re think its a case of not thinking period,we have millions out of work, businesses collapsing,poverty and suffering of people who are ill because theyre not getting medical attention.for what?30 dead in almost 3 mnths .this is rediculous the cure is killing the patient.the dead are largely composed of very ill people who are elderly .this is turning into a self inflicted wound of enormous proportions.

im gonna step out the box here.we have 30 something dead in 3 mnths ,it cant be govt that is helping as theyre not bright they cause more damage with their decrees so what is it?europe usa theyve better govt and better health systems,you can actually get a test there and dont pay not here of course.so its gotta be the temp and weather.SARS was the same.what could it be then?as for the economy the structure here is close to collapse.the medieval make up of society based ona feudal concept means that the big companys will survive as they are part of the structure and have deep pockets.the ordinary thai and small med biz could expire and thats the problem,the econ for the man in the street will shrivel up so in a country of 65 mill with 30dead somethings gotta give and real quick.people have little money now and when food becomes a problem so the problems will multiply,perhaps we must accept that the economy people livelihoods and business comes first ,hysteria is sweeping the world and we see the dead as a minute fraction of our pop,less than .05% and are sick and old by and large,maybe time we moved on as best we can.save the furure of the 99.95% ????

an interesting perspective,imo its hard to say,gov everywheres messed this up big time,all the free money in the west has to be paid for,that means devaluation of the currency firstly.tax next.in cyprus a few yrs ago accs were frozen and 10% taken out dont put that past them,in the depresssion USA outlawed holding gold personally and stole t from people that had it.i do feel the govts have now realised the people must go back to work for several reasons and that will limit the fall out,immunity is greater than 1st thought and few people die less than 0.5% so 99.5% of us move on .the victims are 80% plus very old and infirmed.that realisations setting in.

im not a trumper but i am an ex taiwan resident.the whole WHO charade has cost lives and this chump should be jailed along with aylward.the fact is taiwans repeatedly tried to help and has been firstly ignored then insulted and at the same time chinas hiding of the facts and jailing and killing of dissenters has been ignored and applauded.they knowingly and willingly exported the virus thru chinese new year.this they should be held accountable for

this isnt a trump issue,if you look at WHOs response to taiwan its very disturbing and their pro china content.they have absolved china and blanked taiwan,may people were commenting on this before trump,im an ex taiwan resident and not a trumper but this is fairly common knowledge.WHOs been a disgrace the whole way thru.slow outta the blocks as they backed the china protocol they were following ,why?money.china has a lot of USD foreign reserves and thats where some of the moneys going,post virus u see it hot up as theyre called out on spreading it at chinese new year when they knew well what they were doing.they will be screaming and the thai govt will bow their heads to it.ask the health misister,other places maybe not

personally i think its a bad idea.no need -just enforce what you have now,the no of deaths is small.its hard to bs the death,total infections perhaps but i do feel its lack of testing by and large for what ever reason,we need mass testing available easily,not the usual thai nonsense where no one can decision make in a logical manner or coherently spread information.private hospitals need to be nationalised when dealing with corona related patients.testing must be available to anyone with symptoms quickly and free and all their contacts. this is what will slow it down not more drivel and screw ups.it will cause a mass return again and some panic buying even though it kicks in at 10pm,some people are dribbling idiots,look at sweden this is country with a good health system intelligent and theyve gone the other way,citizens have a life theyve an economy too.death rates same as elsewhere so.....be nice if we could make our own minds up,thats difficult as the sheeple cant ,too busy taking in messages from idiots who put us where we are from day one.media is end of the world constantly.if as its looking likely the death rates under 0.5% we just better get on with life.its about the 99.5% who need jobs,work,money and economy,movement etc.testing where its taken place so far is dropping the death rate at a staggering rate so.........thats my view.i social distance wash hands and mask so......im tired of this mass hysteria,whats next a dutarte approach where the slums starve and if they protest you shoot them?baaah baah baaah

i feel that testing is very poor we all need access to quick reliable and cheap testing,sooner the better,we are all in agreement with that.get on with it and none of your bigot price lines.the nos of deaths are low its a good sign,its difficult to fix that too much as relatives and socail media would inform the general pop here.weather must be a factor as it was with SARS.so lets hope the mass return doesnt bring a tidal wave thru the villages of elderly folk as if it does this govts on very thin ice.

good news at last for italy and all of us,i hope the nos continue to fall as the lock down and testing bites the virus,we have seen the peak hopefully,a lesson to all of us.where do we test easily and cheaply thai govt?this is the crux of the matter so respond,we ve been lucky so far ,i think its the weather as the gov response has added to possible infections,IE boxing matches ,sending foreign and provincial workers home and allowing the chinese carriers to stay after everyones screaming no.do the right thing for once deal with it ,help yourself and the country and all of us who are here,test test test.treat treat treat.you will have to pay for it but longer term youll reap a big benefit for all

all positives most go on the govt role whatever hospitals used and deaths too,i personally think its the weather.what else could it be?we were almost another chinese province till feb!!so weve been very exposed to it,the govts policy has been obscure to say the least and how else can it be explained ?some cheating of course but you cant hide the infection nos too much or deaths too ,its notlike china where they disappear drs who are helping etc etc,what id like to know is where i can be tested quickly and cheaply.possibly for free,as thats the way forward with this,the sleazy private hospitals should be nationalised in regards to corona treatment and testing,the govt picking up the tab.its in their interest.the people with all the money need to spend it and help the country not themselves

curfew wont work here ,especially in the provinces,it appears deaths are low but testing must start on a wide scale and this is another thing thais cant do,social distancing and self discipline is beyond a lot of males here,its un enforcable.testing to is a cultural problem as the rich wont pay for the poor,they are so entitled,the very richest well lets not even go there.its all quite self evident.10% of their wealth and everyone could test,private hospital ahh the scammers de la creme should be nationalised in regards to treating victims and testing during this period,fat chance so we will bumble along re inforcing all the old prejudices and screwing 90% of is to benefit those who are entitled to be special.BUT when it is over the whole games changed so do it now while u can and maybe you will retian the privilege but if u carry on like this we may find that indeed the peasants are revolting.thailands/s e asias saving grace will be as for SARS which it resembles very very closely-temp and climate may save africa too

several points here,the govt and social distancing-what about sending everyone home thru mua chit etc with no guidelines and even allowing such a thing,duuuur,then the burmese and cambodians .the same after youd realised the mistake youd made with your own people...... dumber,then crowding out immigration...is there any end to your stupidity?then the boxing events .....mindless.now u want to tell us what?shut up and do yourself a favour we are a lot smarter than you and if the rest of the dummies havent figured it out by now they never will,i guess theyll do what they always do- play at being adults till they tire of that and revert to norm.ohh and i guess if we dont like it we can pay up and leave.if only.....,half wit ville in all its glory

china knew of the virus in sept then end of jan knowingly and willingly exported it to the world ,even pressured some countries to keep open borders for tourists ,this was chnese new year,its not unreasonable for effected parties to be angry about this,it wasnt an accident

a whole lot more than that if they could test theyd find so many of us have it or have had it,death rates tiny.weve been conned i feel and screwed the economy big time,other corona viruses have killed more this season and flu,5 here in how many mnths?lets quit screaming like little girls and try to honestly assess this for what it really is.check out the latest re assessment in the guardian today a UK paper way to the left,serious experts are now asking questions,please just read it and quit over reacting
-
death by facebook,read what drs are now saying about the outbreak,the nos are small how many here so far5!!!in how long and we are wrecking the whole worlds economy,people jobs business etc going down the toilet,what is the death rate in a bad flu season in northern europe or USA,its hardly worth collapsing our economy .in UK the figs from major experts and drs are being re assessedstate,it appears that over 2/3rds of deaths would have died by xmas anyway.so.......UN WHO and media have a lot to answer for

govt has proven to be poor so far allowing the chinese to bring in the virus to the bitter end,allowing peole to spread it by allowing boxing matches,sending people back to the province after lay offs ,the same with foreign workers and sending people to crowd immigration,so crazy almost unbelievable,people must be allowed to go to drug stores and food shops over a reasonable period of time .16 hrs is enough to shop and not crowd or once again an own goal.nationalise the private hospitals for 2 mnths and test test test with the new cheap test from uk.thai govt pays too,they must do it as people cant afford it

the govts added to the problem over and over,not banning china flights,sending crowds to immigration,not bannin boxing,sending people back to the villages after laying them off and allowing overseas workers to go home en masse,dangerously incompetent.they must think about this before they inflict more damage.a full curfew wont achieve anything people should be allowed access to supermkts and food over an extended period of time so crowding doenst happen,free testing and the nationalisation of private hospitals for the next 2 mnths to deal with the run on care.test test test but scam land oother wise known as thai private hospitals wont allow it,the new brit test may allow us all to test shortly...free and the thai govt needs to pay for it

China denies city discriminating against 'African brothers'

having lived in hk for many yrs and travelled to the main land so many times i feel i have a reasonably educated opinion.the mainland culture is selfish. thats about as polite as i can be,its clannish too ,excluding so many.everyones not like that but the majority are.harping back to perceived injustices that have been lied about and propaganda-ed for 200 yrs doesnt fly,look at 2 world wars ,what of germany and japan? we have moved on!we are called gweilo by all including govt officials ,if u object well thats what you are so.....?its a racist epithet and thats what it is plain and simple,they are used everywhere all over the world.rarely by govt officials though!we have to go back to the 40s in europe.when in beijing in the late 80s i heard of the student riots at the unis,this was due to black students dating chinese girls,troops and police were called in.students barricaded themselves in their rooms for their own safety from the mob.the africans were there as part of propaganda for china to educate poorer socialist nations.some education they got more of a realisation.now it appears according to the PRC its not actually china its the USA,oh dear,well once this dies down im afraid china will see a backlash to all this negativity they poured all over the world.the economic effect is already apparent,ill never buy another PRC product again.factories will have to move out and produce their goods elsewhere or sales will plummet,this process was ongoing before the virus and will accelerate massively.globalisation wasnt really that .it was an over reliance on an aggressive expansionist dictatorship.its gonna be a case of cold hard reality,but in an arrogant culture thats bedrock is we never make mistakes and are superior,its always someone elses fault,we are not responsible.its not gonna end well.hit the mainland in the pocket and the screaming will start,they will start to hurt everyone and lash out at all and sundry so u think this is bad,fasten your seat belts.lucky we arnt tibetan or uigher.
