I just read an article in "The Thaiger", something about owners of night-entertainment establishments and their wish to reopen, naturally as soon as possible.

 

So, when and IF owners are able to open their bars, nightclubs, etc, what safety devices do you plan to wear in order to protect yourself from the novel virus, which, it must be said, will probably be around for many more months to come until we get our vaccine.

 

Also, while wearing masks, will this take some of the pleasure out of the experience?

 

They are talking about masks, face shields, etc.

Will the true Pattaya experience be preserved, do you think?

Not go to any of the cesspit areas of Thailand like Pattaya and others like it would  be my advice.

In reality no one will want to go to bars if social distancing is in play complete with face masks and obviously no girls.

Its a vaccine or nothing as regards the future of Pattaya

Although I been in Thailand for a number of years, believe it or not, I have never been inside a bar in Thailand.

But that's just me.

I don't expect others to enjoy the same things as I.

Earplugs. 

I don't know if it would be wise to go to these places, even if they do re-open - even wearing PPE. 

But...when I read this...

...the thought occurred to me that the Thai bar and adult industry may become less 'vanilla' and more Japanese-like in terms of the kink/fetishes it caters to. The girls could start working in things like masks and gloves (that some people are into). We might see this permanent shift taking place.

Good choice.

Earplugs are the most important PPE for living in Asia.

Recently, there has been news from the Oxford conference, comprised of a number of countries, concerning the goal to spend billions in order to offer a globally available and affordable vaccine within 18 months.

 

By then, Pattaya red-light establishments will be a thing of the past, do you think?

I am thinking of a Hazmat suit or Heavy Diving Gear with copper helmet

Onto a winner, face masks, visors and 2 metres away from a girl, sounds fun, not! Covid-19 test to kiss them and HIV test to bang them.

 

On a serious note, bars and clubs need an atmosphere to thrive, not fear of catching a virus.

Trumps saying by the end of the year so 18 months sounds about right. ????

 

To be fair one of the guys behind the Oxford team has said he was hopeful for the end of the year. 
 

I’m sure there will be some survivors but personally I believe many will fall by the wayside financially. Added to that the new regs and lack of punters coming over it’s going to be survival of the fittest.

I do not really understand the disguise from your posts where your coming from. 

You do have to go inside and experience all Thailand has to offer otherwise you will not know anything about it.

People said this after the HIV outbreak about condoms. 

Guess what, people still enjoy sex.

The amount of whining on these threads lately is over the top.

Anyone who enjoys life, can adapt, and be happy.

Others will never enjoy life, they are called pessimists and curmudgeons

Which do you want to be?

Hey..Pattaya is a world class family destination with pristine tropical beaches

I'd promote total nudity for the girls who could wear on of those plexiglass shields. I'd also give them free PREP so that customers could omit the penis mask.

A condom should suffice!

Do you mean:  Which do I want to be, a pessimist or a curmudgeon?  I prefer to be neither one nor the other, actually.

Hey, finally a bit of a sense here. Adapt and do the best you can. You can run but cannot hide forever.

When bars reopen I'll just walk in and do whatever I used to do. There is no fakovid anymore. Zilch, none in Thailand. By the time the tourists are allowed in, there will have been some measures introduced to reduce to chance of contracting this rather overhyped virus. 

I have come down with terrible flus, stomach bugs and backaches, so fakovid is not going to stop me ????

I hope everybody realizes that there is now a shortage of latex in the world.

Better get used to using sheep intestines, instead.

Have you been inside a temple or shopping mall or is this type of risky activity also beyond you? 

Got it covered.

These ones a great, no need to remove if you need to do a poo.

Massage parlours are going to have a real problem with social distancing.

Malls, yes.

Coffee shops, no.

Temples are beautiful, no problem here!
