TheFishman1 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 I find it hard to believe any of these numbers I don’t think any of the numbers are accurate and I think the government is not doing enough to control this virus here in Thailand TIT 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine in Australia (with thai wife) has purchased bum guns from local hardware store and is installing same. Impossible to buy toilet paper there with physical fights breaking out in the aisles amongst shoppers. CRAZY (Luckily my 3 toilets at home here....northern suburbs Bangkok. . all have them plus a 500 gallon water storage tank and pressure pump) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazykopite Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) Transparency is an unknown word in Thailand so I take everything that the government is saying with a pinch of salt. It appears the PM is keeping a very low profile over this virus epidemic Edited March 16, 2020 by crazykopite 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Is this real Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 There have been, essentially, NO DEATHS from Corvid-19 in people under 50, as of March 16. Yes, you can get sick for a few days. It's not a threat to most of the world. Old folks, such as me, need to be careful + all efforts should be directed to the +50 year olds. Honestly, why the panic? Economies and countries are being destroyed all for the sake of an inflammatory news story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What action? How can you have action, especially appropriate action, until you have thought about it? There's a saying taught in SCUBA diving training. When faced with an emergency, 'STOP, BREATH, THINK, ACT'. With the slow emergence of the disease here to date, the authorities have had plenty of time lay out their plans. It would appear, from the announcements we have seen today, that they have now decided that it is time to act. For the sake of all of us in Thailand, including the grumpy falangs, I wish them well.

ThailandRyan Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Decided to pop in to my local TOPS on Silom by the Sala Daeng BTS, in the small Central building. Had dinner first at Fuji, and it was nearly empty at 6 pm. Headed to TOPS afterwards, and holy moly, no carts, no baskets and the aisles packed. No Toilet Paper, Napkins, Tissues, or Dried noodles including spaghetti and MAMA. The rice bags were down to about a dozen, and the staff was working furiously to restock what they could. The meat counters were half empty and as I checked the Alcohol Aisle it was nearly cleaned out and only the high end liquor was left. Managed to get a few minor things to add to my cache at my house, and used the self checkout registers as the others were packed.....no Panic buying going on here......wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
to be green or not to be Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Masks are usefull for all anytime you get out for in and out virus prevention.. you can simply use nano coton mask which are efficient with this big virus.. home made mask easy to do or last case betyer than nothing motobike masks are good... coton masks are Washable every day and reusable and much better than the one time use non sense paper surgical mask that does not stop virus going in but only stops it going out if you are sick .. cheers mask on ???? zen attitude no panic.. for what lol?

This may be hard for some people. His statement is indeed unfounded but entirely reasonable. It seems reasonable to me that if more people are tested more will be found infected. No? Also, coming to conclusions that differ from yours does not necessarily mean that someone is not thinking just as hard or well as you are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
