How many were coming in daily before they stopped the tours? Don't tell me TAT's figures aren't gospel, that simply can't be true. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tourism is measured in dollars in my country as it is everywhere. These guys just say what others think. Didn't work out too well for "Gerald Ratner" did it? Sometimes there's a time and a place to say what you think.... I wasn't looking for Utopia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also handwashing especially among catering staff is very rare. You are more likely to see one squeezing spots in the mirror before they prepare your meal. Nice eh?

Salerno Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Some good news ... Quote Key points: Australian scientists have become the world's first outside of China to re-create the coronavirus The discovery will enable scientists to develop a test to identify people who might be infected, even before they show any symptoms. It will also help speed up work towards a vaccine for the disease, which has claimed more than 100 lives in China and infected five Australians. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-01-29/wuhan-coronavirus-created-in-australian-lab-outside-of-china/11906390 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisgdr Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Quote Tourism minister Pipat Ratchakitprakarn has told Thai and foreign tourists not to panic regarding the coronavirus outbreak. If there actually was really a panic, it is not him nor what he says that would make a difference. But I guess it's good to say it, so that he seems to have some sort of power over what's happening.

Honestly until China at least starts being honest about it I have to agree with what some people have been posting and maybe they should temporarily restrict Chinese flights. China lies about everything as it is so they need to be taught a lesson anyway especially after what they did in Hong Kong recently. You know I was thinking about what I said here and it’s complicated because you know we cannot punish the Chinese people because of their government by restricting flights from China but, that’s how it rapidly spreads by people travelling. So I don’t know about that or my post. Keep doing our thing I guess just like after any other tragedy, can’t let it win. Just like the fear after 9-11 can’t just stop living. Maybe my above post is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
