The virus is not a living organism like bacteria; antibodies cannot kill what is not alive. * NEVER shake used or unused clothing, sheets or cloth. While it is glued to a porous surface, it is very inert and disintegrates only: - between 3 hours (fabric and porous), - 4 hours (copper and wood) - 24 hours (cardboard), - 42 hours (metal) and - 72 hours (plastic). But if you shake it or use a feather duster, the virus molecules float in the air for up to 3 hours, and can lodge in your nose. * The virus molecules remain very stable in external cold, or artificial as air conditioners in houses and cars. They also need moisture to stay stable, and especially darkness. Therefore, dehumidified, dry, warm and bright environments will degrade it faster. * UV LIGHT on any object that may contain it breaks down the virus protein. For example, to disinfect and reuse a mask is perfect. Be careful, it also breaks down collagen (which is protein) in the skin. * The virus CANNOT go through healthy skin. * Vinegar is NOT useful because it does not break down the protective layer of fat. * NO SPIRITS, NOR VODKA, serve. The strongest vodka is 40% alcohol, and you need 65%. * LISTERINE IF IT SERVES! It is 65% alcohol. * The more confined the space, the more concentration of the virus there can be. The more open or naturally ventilated, the less. * You have to wash your hands before and after touching mucosa, food, locks, knobs, switches, remote control, cell phone, watches, computers, desks, TV, etc. And when using the bathroom. * You have to HUMIDIFY HANDS DRY from so much washing them, because the molecules can hide in the micro cracks. The thicker the moisturizer, the better. * Also keep your NAILS SHORT so that the virus does not hide there. -JOHNS HOPKINS HOSPITAL Why did you feel the need to repeat another members post?

Singapore has a population of 5.8 million, Thailand 80 million, so about 13 times greater. Yesterday Singapore had 35 new cases, Thailand 127. Singapore has reported 3 deaths, Thailand 7. Based on these statistics, it would appear that proportionally it’s safer in Thailand And of course the Thailand figures are correct, ha ha ! some weeks ago the Prime Minister stated, “not a problem, no worry,” where is he now, or does he still believe his own lies? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caldera Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 The points he makes range from common sense all the way to ludicrous. I don't buy the exact percentages he's giving and this makes me trust him less - as a matter of fact, nobody knows yet, not even a professor from Thailand, the undisputed hub of medical advances.

onlycw Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 While I appeciate the unusually high volume of information, I'd like the vital statistics and info on pre-existing illnesses of those, who died. The flu has killed 100-fold more, one keeps eading. We need FACTS to asses the situation! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natway09 Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Singapore is not really a good model, It is a small island state not a country which is a lot easier to contain & control... even they said they can disinfect all habitated areas in 4 days Something interesting came out of the above as he says if feeling ill do NOT go to a hospital. Have Bangkok set up proper field places where you can go.? Some of you may have seen the Italian Health Minister say that they made this mistake which cost lives. Keep most of the hospitals clear of the virus & use special field hospitals. I suggested Challenger at Muang Thong Thani would be a good place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropposurfer Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Given that a percentage of infected people will show no symptoms at all for days to weeks yet be contagious I would suggest that everyone assume they are infected and wear masks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a change listen to highly Educated people who give knowledgeable advice. THIS IS IMPORTANT there is a video link at the bottom of this post. The first 20 minutes of this video are really important to watch and understand how to protect yourself from Covid19 but the whole video is worth your time. The speaker in this one hour video is Dr. David Price (who is a Fellow in Medicine) of Weill Cornell Medicine in New York. Weill Cornell Medicine is one of the largest and most comprehensive academic medical centers in the nation — is ranked New York's No. 1 hospital for the 17th consecutive year, and No. 8 in the United States, according to the U.S. News and World Report. fellow is a physician who has completed their residency and elects to complete further training in a specialty. The chooses to pursue additional training, the fellowship is optional and is not required to practice medicine, but is necessary for training in a subspecialty. This guy is worth listening to. https://vimeo.com/399733860 Interesting guy but he talks -SO-SLOW- and goes on for an hour. Let me know when there is a Youtube version that I can speed up by 2x. I might be able to listen then. Vimeo sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course Singapore is a small rich country and so on but just look at what they did and how they did it. Moreover, look at their concern for humanity that is underlying their actions. I saw their Health Minister speaking in their parliament the other week and like PM Lee, he was clearly on top of his brief: no random builder, he and he didn't have any chips on his shoulder either! The Singaporeans would be outraged at what the government is doing to the foreigners trying extend their visas in Bangkok: mass gatherings of essentially unprotected people. I hope they keep track of all of the foreigners there and if there is a spike in cases among them, I would like to see whoever it is who is in charge of this situation being hauled before the public to explain himself ... I know, I know! Other governments have given foreigners waivers, haven't they. The WHO is working worldwide on this situation: where are they vis a vis Thailand? For all of their big talk, even they need to watch that video of PM Lee embedded in that link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
