Our condo pools were open from 7AM until 11PM.  Now we are allowed only to swim between 6AM and 6PM.  During the week, anyone who still has a job, cannot get home in time to swim. What science could suggest opening the pool for that 12 hour period?

 

Again, swimming at 5PM ok, but swimming at 7PM is bad.  Why?

No science, they just don't want groups socialising together, more likely with alcohol late at night

Not science, government mandate.  Go ahead and question authority, I applaud you.  I don't bother as they have an army, the means to fine you, or incarcerate you.  

Millions of people lost their jobs and many in Thailand are starving and this is your big problem?

What science is driving this?

 

The science that says "I have a uniform, and I can tell you how to live your life".

Why does it have to be anything that drives it, or connected to any science? Can´t you just accept it?

Perhaps it is you (condo) not wanting to pay for two employees - can work one for a 12 hour shift.  Believe the rule now is there must be someone present.

In a country with zero covid-19 cases again and still has nonsense rules hmm...

what science

 

Voodoo

Yes, this is Stadtler's problem. Is there a problem with Stadtler's choice of problem?

Yeah, good luck with that.  They have CCTV.  No one is there and no one needs to be there. 

 

Nonsense make work.

the thai'd trusted and true method ? 

With the incredibly low current number of cases, it does seem inane, and unnecessary. But, so is the curfew. And the social distancing in restaurants among family members. And so are gym rules. I went to my gym and was told I could only use free weights, not the equipment, nor the treadmills, etc. What can one say. Science? "Thai army science"? A bit like saying Alaskan palm forest, or Baffin Island beach resort, or competent Prime Minister, or skilled, talented, or capable health minister (Anutin), or tourism minister (Pipat). What can one say?

UV-radiation?

My Pattaya condo pool is open until 8pm and I think my Bangkok condo pool is also open until 8pm, as well, so maybe this is just your condo deciding it will be open those reduced hours.  

I can't believe some of the vile comments you got. I think it was silly to ask on TVF, but you did...

You need to ask the Condo management about the hours.

Sometimes it just has to be accepted..

We sorta have bigger bigger things to worry about than Gym or swim, Don't you think ?

give the guy a break - if he needs to swim more than 12 hours a day, don't hold it against him...

 

I just wonder if he stops for lunch? 

The pools are open adjust you're schedule like everyone else has to if you want to get Wet

They lost their jobs because of the unprecedented decision to shutter entire markets and economies, for no good reason.

Similarly the decision to let pools be open for reduced hours is based on nothing. Complete nonsense.

 

 

Nothing to do with science rules are made not for you or anyone personal it is just in general maybe outside of your place there were as people noted in their response gathering near curfew so someone decided to change the rule and the result sometimes other suffer because of it.

There will always be a more serious issue somewhere in the world; that does not mean one should not question something less serious. We do have the capacity to think about more than one issue at a time. Our planet may become uninhabitable at the current rate and you dare mention something less important like people losing their jobs? 

The way i have known it opening times for swimming pools in condos/hotels are normally only open sun up to sun down 

Stop your moaning guys anything is better than nothing

Said a pilot whose profession instantly spread the virus to the far corners of the earth!

 

I believe the rational may be because someone read something about UV. I would think chlorine would kill the virus. Into the pool! Make swimming mandatory.
