What a dim and uninformed statement...

Thailand new infections yesterday, +2, the day before, 0

UK +1,600, Italy +300, France +358, Germany +461.....

Less of the dim thank you!

 

It's way less than a month ago and you know that

People's habits haven't changed regarding wearing masks in that time

 

Always remember in Thailand, don't test don't tell

Really..... mask wearing could be a factor along with other reasons.

Is it really worth ruining society for a tiny percentage, if at all?

The rules will be in Thailand forever now, don't think they will change in your lifetime

Masks to be worn everywhere in this place and anybody without will be a pariah

If you think that's a positive thing then we will have to agree to disagree

This is only part of the equation though.  Wearing a mask will not prevent him from picking up the virus from a contaminated surface.  If he is infected wearing a mask will not prevent him touching surfaces and contaminating others.

I wish the WHO and governments would get their act together and come to a consensus on the effectiveness of prevention.

Pathetic

[PingRoundTheWorld]

Look at all the Karens going at it. "Endangering others" yeah right. CDC just came out with new fatality rate estimates, the optimistic scenario for people under 50 - 0.05% - literally less deadly than the flu. But yeah a mask is gonna save lives, lol.

 

P.S. Even the police officer isn't wearing a mask (properly). Do as I say, not as I do...

Also why a mask but not goggles?

Can enter in the eyes as well

Just a way to create fear and conformity

Exactly, now we have the data we need to reign in this ridiculous fear mongering

Oh get real. I expect further relaxations coming this weekend, all because of the earlier actions and the now low levels of Chinese Covid in Thailand. 

Mask wearing in Thailand is already diminishing and near zero in rural areas.....

Message me when I can go into a supermarket or a mall without one 

Where I live you have to wear one anytime you are out of your own house.

Absolutely ridiculous

Thanks

The fact that 90% of Thais are wearing masks outside in the streets in the open air shows how far the Gov scare tactics have worked. I even get looked at for not wearing it outside.

 To think that in Bangkok I wore a n95 anti pollution mask outside when high levels of dangerous toxic fumes and 90% of  Thais didnt  sums up the mentality in the country .

I am a guest in Thailand, I also believe mask wearing will prevent the spread, so I do as required and wear one where required. 

It strikes me as more intelligent that provoking the authorities with non compliance.

[frantick]

All these virtue signaling mask proponents. Where were they for the many years past seasonal flu deaths. Flu spreads the same way, causes death too, even with vaccination.

 

Time to get off your high horses and help the rest of us build immunity.

We can see the airstream from talking going straight for his nose.

And how many (centi)meters distance is this?

Where?

Any evidence would be based on fresh masks all the time, putting it on correctly, taking it off correctly

Not filthy old masks worn day after day

Taking them on and off with dirty hands

 

There are protocols in hospitals, that's why they work in that environment (sometimes!)

 

How did 100+ doctors die in Italy if they are so effective??

Did you miss the facts posted hundreds of times over the last few months.

 

The doctors died because masks protects the patients from the doctors.

You think you are clever not to wear a mask. Wont even do that if it may save a life. Must be such a difficult life to be so annoyed by having to do such a clearly difficult task.

 

Quick round up the troops and get the guns ready.

He doesn't know he's not infected. Many cases have no symptoms. I guess he didn't get the memo. I'm somewhat impressed though to hear that he does understand that the point of everyone wearing masks is to protect others.

Masks have been here in Thailand long before Covid and they will be here long after Covid has gone. I know you want to get caught up in your dystopian fantasies but it is all getting rather boring now.

[Paiman]

I could imagine there being more to it. He might be upset with the extension of emergency decree, problem with authorities etc..... In the present situation many people are at the edge.

 

On another aspect, I prefer people having some balls and show what they think.

 

A lot of Thais suppress their anger, when the boiling point is reached then it often escalates beyond means.

Well New Zeeland and Australia must be stupid countries then

nobody wears a mask and it is not recommended by

health authorities and they have the lowest infection rate.

In Australia, the current advice from the Federal Government is that the majority of people won't benefit from wearing a surgical mask and if you're well, you don't need one.

Quite right !  And to the guy who said wearing of masks in rural Thailand is diminishing.  Well, stew in your own juices  there, just because there are no malls or proper shops where you live probably, it doesn't mean that those of us not in "rural" Thailand shouldn't conform. Vietnam, wear masks. Hong Kong , wear masks Just look at the figures for Covid infections and deaths there. If you don't like to conform to the local rules of the country essentially you are a guest in There are plenty of repatriation flights on offer!

Yes sir.

They are recommended there for those who are sick and/or dealing with those that are sick. 

The official advice remains that you only need to wear a mask if you are sick with COVID-19 symptoms, or if you are looking after someone who may have COVID-19.

If you are well, according to the Department of Health, you do not need to wear a face mask.

That latter statement is rather retarded, how does an asymptomatic person know they are 'well'?

 

To say nobody wears a mask is false, you go to a hospital and will see them!

Oz and NZ have not had the infection rates to make them see it as necessary, and fortunate for them, likely population density helps, but many countries and even WHO back-peddled away from initial statements saying masks were not a benefit. 

 

It is more about complying with emergency rules, being a good member of society, and showing respect and consideration for others, rather than being selfish and ignorant. 

[Tropposurfer]

How does he know he’s not a carrier? Has he been tested?

What harm does wearing a mask do?

Drs do to stop breathing into wounds when treating patients or when being around people with airborne communicable diseases, so why wouldn’t we follow such a lead?

I see American n Euro people in Kamala, Phuket walking around sitting in restaurants and wearing no masks. Pizza shop owner served me the other evening with a mask on while handling my food.
