Limited? By that you mean none after 6 minutes wearing them?

100% under control

How many people thought "shame" when they read the thread title?

It doesn't depend only on the minutes you use them. Everything what is not at least N95 is questionable. And even N95 is no 100 percent protection. It will filter out a certain amount. The virus can enter your body through the eyes too. And in this case all masks not covering the eyes will not give you any protection.

We'll be praying alright but it won't be for him to get better but to get out of the way!

Ailing Prayut begs off duties for a day

By The Nation

 

 

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha cancelled his scheduled appointments on Thursday (January 30) due to illness.

 

A person close to the premier said Prayut had a fever and was fatigued and was resting at home on his doctor’s advice. 

 

His symptoms had no relation to Prayut’s visit to Suvarnabhumi Airport on Wednesday to inspect virus control measures, the person said.

 

In his stead, Deputy Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul presided at an awards presentation on Thursday morning and Deputy Defence Minister Chaichan Changmongkol chaired a meeting at the Defence Ministry.

Its a common problem with those cheap face masks your forced to inhale your own BS????

Like the rest of the administration he's contracted the recently mutated Zombie Corona virus which renders the infected incapable of making sound and rational decisions.It's suspected that the newly discovered mutation has been circulating since the recent democratic elections in Thailand and has been getting worse at an accelerated rate!

I thought he was such a tough guy, anyway a good leader delegates most of the tasks he has to do.

yes correct.  Even tough guys like him get sick from time to time. As it mentioned his days are very busy with engagements as required by any PM.

We all wish him a speedy recovery as does all the people of Thailand.

get well soon our honorable Prime minister.

It is understood what you say, however having this mask on is 10x better than having no mask on at all.

I purchased a pack recently manufactured by 3M which show 3 layered protection ... similar to those in the photo so I expect they are similar quality.

To wear a mask but not covering the nose. What a genius our beloved leader is....

I wish he'd wear a mask the whole time, simply to cover up that horrible smug grin!

That's why I posted that photo originally in a different thread.... because I noted he had his big nose kinda hangin' out. Not very hygienically correct....   I guess you'd call that style of mask wear a "low-rider" back where I come from!

You did survey ALL the Thai people about his health, didn't you?

Vast majority of Thais have gone right off him. Loving Thailand and its people shouldn’t automatically involve turning off your powers of critical thinking. Do keep up.

Monday : 
Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has assured the public that the novel coronavirus situation in Thailand is “100% under control” .  
 

 

Today:  
Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has cancelled all this appointments and activities today (Thursday) because of sickness (corona virus).

"Karma is a bitch! "


 

I kind of feel sorry for the guy. Nobody really likes him (except Steven100) and I guess the stress is getting to him.

 

Hope he soon recovers. Until then will miss his statements and should the virus go crazy, we have no one to order it to go away.

 

 

He will be fine within 7 days, we vow.????

Pity the poor soul who has to round up everyone he has shaken hands with in the last 3 weeks.

I’ve seen countless Thais with their nose sticking out of their masks. 
 

It’s not even worth trying to educate them. They will probably die on the road or from liver fluke anyway.

Those masks are also not very helpful. You need a tight seal and those don’t give it.

 

 

I just came across some other photos, apparently from the same airport inspection trip, that are even more revealing!!!

 

 

Bad form Mr. PM!

How, if it takes so many days to test suspected cases, does he get tested so fast?

 

In other words, they can test quickly, right?

 

Actually HK researchers made a quick test. Only takes a few hours. That was done about a week back but not sure what Thai hospitals are using.

I think many dictators are a bit leery about delegating things because they are afraid of losing control.  Ever see that classic old Twilight zone episode from the 1960s where the South American dictator, no doubt spooking on Castro and Cuba, but the guy went crazy always looking in the mirror and seeing or thinking he saw traitors, always looking over his shoulder, hearing things, then started killing his own staff members, and friends.  Falk was the dictator as I recall.
