Yep, I can't win against Mr Rebel and his big brave outlook and non compliance with rules of any sort. Not sure where he lives but sounds like maybe deep Georgia and he is a Survivalist. Did he get to meet Louis Theroux? "Nobody dictates to me what I do" really sounds ridiculous. I assume he pays taxes because he enjoys it? 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samtam Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 16 hours ago, Seeall said: Whats more simple and logical is to go along with the rules, close the pools, gyms and whatever else they can, cut down on work , less staff.. and RAKE IN THE MAINENANCE FUNDS!!! (and we all know where that most often goes..) There is no change in "Common Area Fee" when the pool is closed at our condo; don't even know how that could be measured. Besides, the pool is properly maintained during its closure, with twice daily readings of chlorine and pH. 13 hours ago, soi3eddie said: I'm complaining to the Condo CJP but they don't care. Just state "government rules" BS! They are right. In Bangkok (and other provinces) it is the rule of the provincial governor. 3 hours ago, Stargrazer9889 said: Yes the beaches are closed, but condos with their private pools , the decision to open or not, should be a decision of the condo board and owners, not the government. I think the posters that say, your condo pool should be closed, because I do not have a pool at my condo should zip their lip. My cousin has 2 pools at his condo and only the residents can use the pools and they do. Discretion is good to use so that social distancing is being used. People need to cool down in the hot weather, Pattaya keeping their beach closed while Hua Hin is not so strict, is a perfect example of good governance, or bad gdovernance. Pattaya is being stupid. Bangkok has no beach so Prayut does not care. As some posters say, the Chatuchat market is open and people milling about so it is about time to open the beaches and just have the police watch the social distancing. Too much to ask of the Pattya police force, I guess, who I see under the trees doing squat all. Geezer Unfortunately condo pools fall under the "temporarily closed premises" list, item 1.10.

thaiden1 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I just read the Pattaya has had no new cases for 28 days. Maybe they should look at individual areas for re-opening pools and beaches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you considered the 'Dilution' of say one persons saliva to the volume of treated water in a swimming pool. My own chlorinated/salt water pool contains approximately 100,000 litres of water, so let us say that the saliva from one person is absorbed by this what do you think is the % dilution of saliva to chlorinated water content? Let's say the 'saliva' is 1ml (1 thousands of a litre - probably far far less than this) in volume this would work out at a dilution content of 1 part in 100,000,000. I would suggest that the 'risk' from saliva is extremely low and not worth consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok and the surrounding provinces what com under it are very fortunate that the water supplies are Chlorinated water. Chlorine is a erm killer. Cloths are washed in it, shower,utensils and dishes, surfaces wiped down, the floor cleaner with it, all left germ free. Theres no need to go for expensive sanitizer in the home you have it already supplied chlorinated water. The water is 100% drinkable and full of vitamins. Water from the Reverse Osmosis (RO) machines is not recommended for main drinking water, especially for Children.

SMEinBangkok Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 21 hours ago, Lacessit said: I'm wondering if any of the geniuses in this administration actually have any data on the number of COVID-19 clusters that have arisen at swimming pools. Or anywhere else for that matter. You've hit on a key point. There is data out there on where people are contracting it from countries that have instituted effective contact tracing programs. But, almost all governments are foregoing making use of that information and instead just making stuff up as they go. This problem is compounded by the Pandemic Plebes who believe whatever they last heard someone tell them to do. Thailand is just one more government that's decided to wage a war against the healthy members of its population....meaning 99% of the uninfected... instead of protecting those most at risk and managing what's going to be long-term issue.

What are the reasons. On 5/12/2020 at 11:32 AM, samtam said: As I have explained several times, there is a misconception about [opening] condo pools. Most people, including those at CDC think of a pool more in terms of a social gathering venue. If you use the appropriately chlorinated pool only, with limited numbers, and prohibit social gathering round it, you have one of the safest spaces to avoid transmission of Covid 19. This protocol can easily be implemented by condo management, together with the requirement that users shower before and after swimming. It's really that simple. To continue prohibition of condo pool usage for exercise is ridiculous, compared to what is being allowed to open...Chatuchak market (social distancing?)...beauty clinics and weight loss clinics (close person to person contact?)...foot massages (close person to person contact?)...outdoor stadiums for team sports, (no chance of saliva, sweat being dispersed there?)... Transport , how many people allowed to ride in a car or vehicle. Why are motor cycle taxis still allowed to operate . Motorcycle rider still carrying passengers. I've seen as many as four people on one bike. Were is the distancing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ericdiam Posted May 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 13, 2020 where the need of wearing mask in open air sitting easily meters away from each other. Stupidity of government opening Chatuchak where distancing is really impossible. Sure a power full rich guy put pressure to open it again to fill his pockets more. This government has zero brain. Only came in power with fake election results to act for more corruption and filling their own pockets.

He is the kind of idiot who has closed his mind to the possibility that he could be wrong and people like us are wasting their breath. Did anyone you know die from catching the virus at a pool, gym, or sauna. No, of course not, that is where healthy people go to stay healthy. That is what this discussion is about. Millions of people die from disease and old age every year. We don't stop living because of that or is that what you expect the world to do becsuse you don't eat well, exercise, or take the proper vitamins and supplements for good health? If you do then you expect too much and are delusional. Listen to doctors who have nothing to gain from subjecting you to a mandatory vaccine and you will hear the truth. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
