having the virus enter your body and going on to develope "covid" the disease are entirely different things, a PCR test will detect the virus but there are thresholds to determine actual levels, also the test may also detect dead viral particles - the world has moved on - what is wrong with Thailand ? This story should be published on mainstream world media so that people understand the risks in coming here

which is exactly why the rest of the world are moving on Thailand as always well behind the curve as usual TBH there is no way I would be travelling here until they stop this stupid nonsense but of course they have an agenda to keep it going - plenty of budgets to theive from and small brained power and control - I also thnk there is something dodgy about PCR tests performed in BKK - there have been several reports of people testing positive then negative within hours - there is a threshold for tests - it is not an exact science - she should have bought a bunch of rapid tests which would likely be more accurate But ultimately they should have gone somewhere else, I am sure there are many stories like this that we never get the hear about

Vote for the UK government to index link pensions in Thailand
smedly replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
what is going on on top of this pensions in the uk are now being presented with other benefits - people can claim stuff at old age on pension to supliment what they are getting - in other words if you are in the UK you can claim for almost automatic benefits to as much as 400 quid a month - so they have divided pension payments between what you would normaly get and other claims , I am not of state pension age but unless you are in the UK you will not get those other benefits you would be entitled too which further dilutes your payments - my observation as I see it you should not have to claim extras - it should be in your pnesion default just more ways of getting shafted -
it hasn't increased, you're just making an effort on detection which should be 365 days a year not just 7

I would like to know how many people are normally (pre covid) needing elevated care the question that remains unanswered in Thailand - how many people are in hospitals "with covid" but not because of covid, we have seen from other countries that as many as 70% or more of those reported in hospital are there for other reasons but also tested positive for omicron - not a big shock considering how it spreads the numbers in Thaiand just don't make any sense and lack detail - no surprise

I was in a Thai restaurant recently in Pattaya with over 1500 in attendance accompanied with live music and a DJ, several other venues close by in full swing with equally huge numbers, this goes on nightly

smedly replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
the whole thing needs a massive overhaul, time to modernize and bring it into line with how other countries run their lottery - ticket machines and pick your own numbers -
Anutin in "I'll do what I say election pledge" you really have no idea how much the Thai people want you and your mates gone

do they not realize that this 11pm restriction serves absolutely nothing, all it does is inconvenience people who simply go out hours earlier, would it not be sensible to relax these opening hours and allowing some flexibility - ask any one of these ### why they need this 11pm closure and you see a blank confused face - anwser - because we can we don't need a sensible reason ................... and there is exactly the problem
