Hmmmm

the infection rate slow in South Korea, China, Japan. Most wear the mask.

 

the infection rate increase in Italy, US, UK, France. Spain. Most not wear the mask.

 

Total true again. Open the eyes.

 

I not understand why some people argue about wear mask so much. Is not difficult. 

Not be selfish, considerate for elderly.

 

thousand+ die everyday now.

Next week will be 10,000+ everyday. 

Thats not realy an argument unless you know how many tests those countries are doing.
E.g the US is now doing more than 10k per day.

I wouldn’t be so sure about Japan ... wait a few days, now the Olympics are gone, the « mask can be removed » (pardon the pun). 

Even though many people wear masks, they do not in the many crowded, albeit cramped eating places. Tokyo mayor is asking tokyites to behave responsibly, still too afraid to impose a lock down on the megapolis: economic worry still priorities over people’s lives.

So let’s see if Japan, with its corrupt government, can emulate Korea, Taiwan, Singapore or .. China. 

Ready to bet ?

I have 2 that I managed to scrounge - I know Thais have boxes of them and are reluctant to give them to foreigners - their primary customers and then they complain about foreigners not wearing them - idiots 

What sort of Thai shop is it that sells facemasks and has foreigners as the majority of it's customers, i.e. Thai customers are secondary to the business?

Of course they are! Ignorant racists that listen to the racist rhetoric/propaganda (fake) thats allowed to propetuate. No one gets introuble for posting fake things about outsiders so it continues. Its how the powers that be want it. If they didnt it wouldnt be classifiable as racism!!

Why not compare masks to condoms?

 

It's really great going without, but are you really ready to take the risk.

 

And live with the consequences ??..??..

Hmmmm,

 

Yes maybe it is the masks.

 

In South Korea, China, Japan people eat mostly Asian food.

In Italy, US, UK, France. Spain, not really.

 

Maybe the food is  the reason,

or than maybe something else

Yes, an Asian thing wear mask.

thailand, Singapore, South Korea, Japan and China most wear the mask in public place. Control corona.

 

When in Rome. 

Italy, US, UK, France, Spain, Netherlands not like wear the mask in public place.

Look what happen. 

 

If in public, please wear the mask. 

Not be selfish. 

why are you trying to say that it's only foreigners not wearing mask??

Where I live i put on my mask every time I step out my front door.

 

hardly any Thais wear masks in my village..

 

Not only foreigners are refusing to wear masks, many locals are refusing it too.

With the zillions times square of masks being manufactured, used and disregarded, I wonder what will happen pollution wise ..? Shall we see sea turtles wearing masks ? Remnants of masks washing up on the shores of our beaches ? 

Just as we started to get rid of plastic straws and other single use plastic objects, we are now switching to what will become a very big problem .. once the virus has done its job.. ????

I did read it and if you have to remove the mask with your hands to to drink then the mask is useless - I hope he has the balls to name his place so we can all avoid it and keep him safe

I hope you have the balls to concede that the "we" to whom you refer should read "I" because you, smedley, do not represent anyone here, never mind a communal veto!

 

"...and keep him safe"

So you're avoiding his coffee shop will keep him safe?  That suggests that you're one of those that doesn't wear a mask for the peace of mind of others just for the hell of it.  If you're a mask-wearer you wouldn't need to avoid the place to keep him safe.

Indeed.. and may I ask: when do you wear a condom ? When going into a confined space ... Or maybe you also wear one when limp and walking down the street ..

Do you understand what your government is doing 

 

Can you explain what PUI is and why there are almost 10,000 of them, why are they not being tested ?, why are they just looking at them and doing nothing

 

I know the answer - see if you can tell me Yin since you seem to know everything else lol

 

Are you a medical professional or just read stuff and believe no matter what the source 

 

Run along - there are adults here

You can buy masks and surgical gloves and hand sanitiser on Lazada and can be deliver within 3 days

If a certain Thai lady hadn't hoard 44,000 masks in Pattaya, they would be able to wear them....they just arnt anywhere to be bought

and everyone is entitled to question it - it's called discussion

There seems to be a lot of uneducated people out there... and most of them don’t understand the value and use of the mask. (and I’m not suggesting everyone should be wearing a mask at all times). I wear one when out to alai the fears of the Uneducated, not so much for health reasons.  And, the concerned Thais should be more worried about the several million Thais not adhering to the quarantine and not wearing mask.

And meanwhile, Thai companies are exporting millions of masks overseas,

Multiple Thai companies are doing that?   Any empirical evidence to back up that assertion (apart from the report here sometime ago of one company exporting one previously ordered and paid for consignment)?  I mean evidence, not the usual Thaivisa members' "everyone knows" way to wriggle out of it.

My concern is “are masks available to the public”? How do you expect people to wear them if they can’t find them in their local convenience stores?

Shopee, Ali Express? They've got plenty of them.
