Weird Well, as soon as you open an account on any social network, you instantly have more than 20 followers...that would be the 17 US "intelligence" agencies, the "five eyes", Putin himself, and obviously Huawei... Yoy don't know them, but they do know you!

Ok, that does it. Global warming Global climate change Global pandemic Global trade war KIm Kardashian Global expert. Globalism is pandemic it seems; Time to go back to a flat earth, maybe? ????

The sad thing is that these friends have all lost their jobs. Then it is imperative that you Unfriend all of these people. Facebook friends in Thailand are not 'Friends'. You will find out when requests for 'short term' help comes in.. Oh, 'short term' here is just a bit less than eternity...

None of the members of Thai-Visa is a Facebook friend of mine or wanted to become. My topic is seriously, no joke. No one is panicking in Pattaya/Jomtien, except maybe you and your Facebook-friends.

February 27, 20206 yr Reminds me of the people rushing to collect the fish on the beach - just before the tsunami unleashed it's fury.

My detailed information should only serve to ensure that no unfounded panic is spread. If someone has different experiences in this forum, we should inform each other. Thank you! Well we are still Waiting for your detailed Information, When ?
February 27, 20206 yr Number one why don't you tell us where everyone can be tested in pattaya and how many are being tested when having flu like symptoms? It's easy for the hospitals to simply say you have the flu now go home. Plain and simple they are doing little to no testing here. And number two do you think anyone wants to say "I have the virus" they will be either fired from work, quarantined or treated as a pariah. Your facebook research proves nothing.
February 27, 20206 yr Since we again are on the subject of Corona ... I came across two YouTube videos I thought was interesting ...

February 27, 20206 yr With such an Anglic sounding name like "Galen Jones", your English grammar sure reminds me of several Chinese people I know.
February 27, 20206 yr 18 hours ago, galenjones said: I have a lot of Thai friends who worked in restaurants that only hosted Chinese groups. The sad thing is that these friends have all lost their jobs. Very pertinent point. This job losses occuring across the tourist sector in Thailand and its neighbours are a real cause for concern not being addressed, as far as one can see, by governments or the media. With many nations already up to their eyeballs in debt, the global economic repercussions from the corona virus scare could well prove even more damaging and long-lasting than the effects on public health.
February 27, 20206 yr Been in Pattaya 5 months and you have loads of Thai friends + 1,500 Face Book friends. I'm 75 and have a few friends. you have been busy, that's more than 10 new friends every day then! I guarantee you could not write three interesting facts about every one of your host of 'friends'. And they're not 'friends' - they are 'collectables' - in the loosest descriptive manner possible!
February 27, 20206 yr Based on the current worldwide population of about 8billion, 1500 Facebook friends, and the Coronavirus current infection rate approaching 100000, you should have seen at least a 0.01875 part of one of these Facebook friends displaying some sort of Corona symptoms.
February 27, 20206 yr Old people, men and chronically ill people are at risk of dying from the Chinese coronavirus, scientists warn. On children, however, COVID-19 has virtually no effect. Luckily, I was in apartment in Italy and then went home, so my granny was safe.

I have a fake Facebook account with a profile picture of vegemite and have over 3000 "friends" which I use it to troll on Thai expat groups. Thank god we have OP with such an id-depth insider knowledge of coronavirus. Im laughing at the fact that facebook is now primarily used only by the elderly.

February 28, 20206 yr On 2/26/2020 at 2:55 PM, Clive said: I have 60 Facebook friends. I am only friends with people that I can either visit or phone. Regarding Coronavirus let's put it into perspective. The common flu kills so many more than this annually but doesn't receive this media frenzy. On a positive note the numbers in China appear to have platoed. You believe the Chinese government? I hope you are correct.
February 28, 20206 yr OK, I did a quick Google. Between 30,000 and 60,000 people per year DIE of the normal flu virus, despite all our vaccination efforts. Now we have a panic and global financial catastrophe over a virus that has killed far less. Just saying people. This virus will blend in and become a part of the normal death toll of which we have been normalized.
