I say even surgical mask is effective if everyone us it and that is true What happens instead of being opposite just accept and use any masks that you can find Yes respirators is the best but if we can find it Edited February 8, 2020 by sadeghsep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for every farang that lives upcountry and built a house for his wife/gf/partner, how many are living in rented accommodation in Bangkok, Pattaya, CM, HH? And why shouldn't they rent?Any particular reason why they should buy a condo?Why a single western foreigner should by a house? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thian Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 2 hours ago, Beggar said: They are expensive and very uncomfortable. But the government told us that we can get masks at the Blue Shops. No idea what shops these are and where you can find them. But now the WHO tells us that we should not use masks if we are not sick. I think I will start to ignore this virus. It is simply to complicated. We also don't know what blue shops are....but the older folks in our family still want to have mouthmasks, i wished we could buy them somewhere. They have to go to the hospital regularly and want to wear them for always from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post FigaroLucowski Posted February 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2020 During my 20 yrs living in Thailand I have never heard a more mean spirited, heartless and racist public announcement by a Thai official. It's apparent that his thinks the whole world revolves around him, like a arrogant and spoiled child. Apparently he says what many Thais think but don't say about farangs. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said the offer was made in a good spirit and it was wrong of the foreigner to criticize the Thais for helping out and being concerned about their health. So it was only 1 farang who refused the cheapo mask? I thought that loads of them in the skytrain refused them. The Thai government must really hate farangs, i wonder why though...did i miss something? It was the chinese who got the virus, not the farang was it? 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post koolkarl Posted February 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2020 I cannot understand why foreigners continue to visit and stay in Thailand, other than the ones who are married and stuck. If grovelling to immigration all the time isn't enough, there has always been a xenophobic attitude towards foreigners that this uneducated crass individual has publicly admitted. Add the terrible air pollution covering most of the country all year, the answer is rather obvious. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I once wrote, nobody will accept your apology even if you apologize hundreds of times, nobody can believe the word of a person who represents the government of the host country and who loses control like a three year old boy, then the refusal to apologize, getting even more angry ... you are just a spoiled little child who has yet to learn much from life! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone with manners covers their mouth when coughing or sneezing already. Various medical resources have plainly stated there is no need to wear a mask unless ill. To be fair there is a period of time when a person can be infected and show no symptoms and can infect others without knowing it.I think this is Anutin's point that he is trying to make,one can be infected and pass on the contagion without realising it.Did you know this?This is the situation where masks do help.

Isn’t that for low level staff or volunteers to do? shouldn’t he be spending his time working on effective policies instead? Romney pretty damn honest - voted his conscious over his party position "top dog is handing out masks? Isn’t that for low level staff or volunteers to do?"

Thai's refuse nothing and probably went back for more to resell to their own family. I did like these 2 conflicting lines. "He said that the foreigner didn't know the measures his government and health teams were putting in place to alleviate the situation" and then... "He said that Thailand is letting everyone in - not like some countries that are banning Chinese, for example. " Sir, with all due respect...you're an idiot. Idiot is far far too polite...
