A Chinese (yes he was Chinese) man sticking his fingers into the raw chicken breast ( maybe testing if they were tender), from there he moved to the raw pork and picked up several pieces one after another with his bare hands, back to the chicken breasts, then his mobile rang. Hands in pocket and took out mobile phone without wiping his hands. Put phone away continued with the pork. Then moved to the vegetables and started picking them up. Not once did he wipe his hands. I tried to talk to the staff about it, but all they did was shrug their shoulders. someone pointed out makro ...and I go there often ... daily walk / groceries people taking porc / chicken with bare hands funny as there are signs : USE GLOVES off course: NO GLOVES but most people double bag it, a bag as a glove as the food pincher (picking tool) is put back with handle into the meat ... indeed, next to go put their dirty hands on the shopping cart, check veggies, etc ...

Dont forget , the people doing the checking are uneducated security guards. They are probably told 37 degrees is ok. Anything over: a big No. They are not really allowed to think.

One of you has a degree in medicine, in a discipline whose core is sterile and sanitary operations without fail The other .. a spoiled child whose life view is "Me Me Me" I want what I want now, and being "perfect" can simply NOT be infected. Dude, I wouldn't touch you with a 10 foot pole, and if I did, I would burn it then wash my hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 What I really don't undersrtand is: who on earth goes out doing errands etc with a fever? When I have a fever I feel terrible and stay home. In a pinch I would at least take paracetemol first and so not have a fever while out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In these cases, it has been suggested that the toxic metabolite is produced more in the kidneys than in the liver. ...

Popular Post Sheryl Posted March 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2020 That quote is referring to overdose. Chronic use (e.g. every day over a long period ) can also cause problems especially if the daily dosage is high. Very occasional use at normal dosage has an excellent safety profile in people without underlying liver or kidney disease. Don't scare monger. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thailand49 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Aside from the meat section I don't see any real reason to go to Makro especially in Pattaya, there prices aren't cheaper I find Tesco has the best prices and deals regularly 2 for 1 items.

pennine Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I would think that having wipes for trolley handles makes more sense. in South Africa this is done in many Supermarkets, even before Coronavirus (which hasn't reached SA yet anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck renewing your next vis extension then, immigration at chaeng wattana and many other places scan all comers as well. What I cannot quite wrap my head around is that folks complain indignantly that thais are doing nothing to limit or prevent covid-19 transmission, however they react negatively when confronted with any safeguard that may affect them. Besides, if you are such a sweaty out of shape wreck that a walk across a parking lot raises your temperature to levels that high you may be flagged as a risk, you have much more than covid-19 to worry about.
