Whilst I wouldn't go out of my way to catch it, I'm certainly not going to make huge sacrafices to avoid it. I've have enough of my time wasted with this thing, it's time to move on. If I get it, I get it. A week off work catching up on Netflix and finishing a couple of Playstation games (plus the extra future protection of having caught it) is not the worst thing in the world.

My sister was thinking about a trip to Samui later this year with her husband and 2 other couples. Just forwarded her this article. Hopefully they drop this 'test on arrival' nonsense ASAP. You're more likely to catch it here than bring it with you.

Just been informed by HR that one of my staff tested positive yesterday. I'd imagine the numbers will start to spike this week as factories etc. test their workers on their return to work. Everyone in my office is being tested at 9am ????.

Not a fan? On the plus side the 6 Thai dogs on our farm stop trespassers, fruit stealers, snakes, burglars, rats. The best thing is the villagers never stop by for a chat any more which always involves them requesting "loans". I'm guessing they would keep away grumpy forum members like you as well, which is a nice bonus. My American Pitbull Terrier has a penchant for Jinjok and Tookay and has pretty much eradicated them from our property. He's learning to catch the pigeons now. Marvelous.

Laying the seed for blaming the post Songkran spike on tourists and foreigners. Predictable but unfortunately quite effective with the largely xenophobic Thai populace.

I wouldn't be surprised to see deaths rise. The peasants unfortunate enough to have had Sinovac will have the effectiveness worn off by now and I doubt people will be queuing up for 4 hours in the heat of an Issan temple to be injected with something that makes you sick for 3 days again. Anutin's chickens may be coming home to roost.

That will be sure to protect you after a day of maximum exposure amongst the crowds. Stay safe everyone. Look after your families and loved ones.

Great to see numbers dropping. Time to follow the UK’s lead (again!) and open up. It’s over. Endemic. Move on.

Exactly. Guys seeking out these attributes in their hookers need to take a good long look at themselves and wonder why. There have been a few busts lately where underage girls have been found in the bars. Soi 7 in Bangkok for example. I hope the online scene isn't circumventing these checks.

4ft tall, 38 kgs with a Hello Kitty backpack? Can you hear yourself? Celebrating the child-like qualities in your call girls. Wow.

That's possible. It's also possible these issues could occur for the elderly Thai people in the title of this thread. Fortunately I am under 50 with no major health issues and I have shook off 95% of the side effects. I don't believe it's fair to label elderly people with genuine concerns about taking a third dose of a largely untested vaccine "irresponsible". 3 months ago young people were being pressured to take the vaccine to "save Grannie". Now Grannie is being labelled irresponsible. That's disingenuous in my opinion.

Maybe it's Will Smith?

Well that's up to them isn't it. Their body, their choice. My Pfizer booster gave me a lot of issues for about 8 weeks and frankly if I could go back in time I would have stuck with the 2 x AZ I had. Omicron is probably the best booster available now.

You're in Thailand now buddy. If you want Woke or are easily butthurt, maybe not the best place ????.

That will buff out ????. From the translation it sounds like maybe the accelerator stuck so the driver applied the handbrake. Car still in gear and trying to accelerate with the handbrake on? Sounds like a recipe for heat, friction and a fire. Maybe turning the engine off would have been prudent?

But the Australian politicians weren't going to acquire fabulous personal wealth from the deal so they were happy to walk away. Plus they got to irriate the hell out of Macron, and who could resist that? No way Thai politicians (or should I say Generals) are going to walk away from this deal. They wouldn't care if the subs have engines from a 30 year old Honda wave as long as they collect the coin that such a deal generates for them and their cronies. It's not like they're going to use the subs anyway, the water is too shallow. I predict a solution will be found with the CCP and the Thai Generals will acquire yet more incredible, generational wealth from this deal.

The Academy ; Hey Will, the Oscars audience is down so we want you to ruin the best night of your career and overshadow your Oscar win by slapping another black guy on stage. We're going to get someone to insult your wife about her medical condition in front of millions of people and then you can bitchslap him. Everyone is going to criticize you, it's going to be a really bad look for the black community and you'll be reminded for weeks about your cheating wife's ways, your disfunctional family and your celebrity privilige. Your wife will be labelled a manipulative narcissist. People will call you a fake, call for the award to be cancelled, you'll have to resign from the academy with a grovelling apology and your career will no doubt suffer as a result. Will ; Sounds like a great idea. No such thing as bad publicity right. Seriously, how anyone can think this is fake is beyond me. Are people that oblivious to what is fake and what is real?
