I thought it was common knowledge that limited testing does not capture all infections so his statement is correct or do you disagree? I don't disagree with your comment but my comment to him was "No, 'we' don't 'all know' that. You may not have noticed the inverted commas and italics indicating some emphasis.

"(and we all know there are way more than reported)" No, "we" don't "all know" that.

Thaivisa poster-style, what else?

Thank you for your reply . Why I say the attacker was racist is because he would not of done the same if the man or woman was Thai. Is that simplified enough for you? I did not need anything simplified, so... 1. You've over-simplified everything to the point of it being ridiculous. 2. You have no idea whether race had anything to do with the incident.

Are you really trying to justify a cowardly attack on an 80 year old man? Says a lot about you. No, clearly, he was not doing that.

"...any other traffic offense over the next 24 months, his car would get impounded". You're making up new Thai laws, now, eh?

I think the Thai kicking the old man is the racist How did you work out that the Thai was "being racist"?

The police could of charged the attacker without approval . There privilege also They "could of" [sic], could they? How would they get on without the victim as a witness, do you think?

That's irrelevant, this is Thailand and US laws (or any other countries' laws) cannot be applied here.

None, neither will they do anything for running up on the blind side to nail an old man. Garbage. They will if the victim wants to press charges, in this case, he doesn't.

Only if charges are brought for not wearing a mask. Have there been any reports of offenders being jailed for not wearing a mask?

"...they are called "cross walk" and "hood." No, they're not "called" that, that's just what how they're referred to by Americans!

That's as accurate as saying that "all Thaivisa posters are over-generalising ranters".

Because that's his privilege.

it's the type of scum prevalent in thai society these days unfortunately These people and their actions are not "prevalent in Thai society", incidences such as these are the exceptions.

...that the victim chose not to pursue, as his prerogative and as it stated in the OP.

"Typical Thainess". Nonsense, what happened was not typical of Thais in general.

I'm booked for Pfeizer next month and also Moderna. Your a foreigner. Did you try to book for Pfeizer. Also Astra Zeneca is available. I don't want Sinovac when theres better and more effective vaccines available. So you have appointments for both Pfizer and Moderna yet you tell people "I can't seem to find any vaccines available here in Issan and we won't take Sinovac. Why not tell them "I'm booked for Pfizer and Moderna"? "Your a foreigner. Did you try to book for Pfeizer. Also Astra Zeneca is available". Yes, I'm a foreigner, I've had one AZ jab so no need to try for Pfizer. Why do you ask?

And that surprises you? No, it does not surprise me in the least, that's the reason for my post!

No, not "NOTHING", hasn't the government been giving monthly cash to those workers? Yes, it has.

Wait for it! Negative views of this positive action are being hammered furiously into keyboards right now!

I take the advice of my Cardiologist. Your cardiologist advised you that no vaccination at all during a Covid pandemic was better than anything apart from Pfizer? Yeah, right, of course he did.

Black ink or blue ink, it makes no difference. Next thing some poster will be telling us what shade of blue to use.

Why won't you have Sinovac, some protection is better than no protection, isn't it?

Why? Do you think that vaccinated people cannot infect others? Vaccination does not prevent your getting the infection. Incidentally, a far as protection is concerned, until you're fully vaccinated, you're not vaccinated
