Guderian Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 ...and so we slowly move to the new normal. Pattaya's beaches to reopen at the start of June and the lifting of the at the start of July, including a resumption of international travel. Face masks, frequent hand cleansing, social distancing and Thai Chana will all remain a part o four lives for the foreseeable future though. Let's hope nothing goes wrong between now and July 1st. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Raymonddiaz Posted May 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 29, 2020 Thais are starting to open their eyes that many of them are living abroad. It might help us foreigners living in this country. Before the emergence of the the wuhan virus, most of them thought only foreigners travel to Thailand and not the other way around. The double pricing and other unfair treatment of foreigners should stop. Let’s hope things change after the end of this nightmare. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how they seem to fail to mention that rather pertinent detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they not in a Naval/ Army base or quarantine hotel? So therefore kept away from the general population. Are you sneaking into the Naval bases ?

CM Dad Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Tell the Chula professor that all the people coming in for the past month have been Thais, not foreigners, and all of the ones infected for the past month have been Thais.

Elkski Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 no word on dormitories. were these 11 positive before transport? were there others on the plane? did they know? are they now in 14 day quarentine? just wait until they open up for international travel, the almost safe Thailand will be back in the deep chit. taxi drivers will get it and then some nightclub will spread it bigly. and it may be a more virulent strain this time.

Farangs are dirty and dangerous. Foreign lands are polluted and dangerous. China is probably okay, though, as they have the virus under control. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John CS Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Yes , the stage is being set for the new normal Fask masks , track and tracing, more surveillance, all this after destroying jobs worldwide, not sure of Thailand but the US are indicating 40 million jobs lost and lets also consider the lives lost due to lockdowns , not made available yet? Awaiting the arrival of the potentially mandatory vaccine , which maybe a new type genetically modified Will it be safety tested ,none have been since 1986 Will this become an ID , a form of passport to travel? and for access to other services Do people think that the lockdowns are warranted , justified? Thailand 57 deaths , 3000 infections, most deaths 95% elderly with conditions and compromised immune systems? Most people are asymptomatic and this respiratory virus does not affect them. Efficacy of all testing has not been validated yet? But the Drug companies will make possibly Trillions out the vaccines and funding, as is already happening. So out of the NEW normal, will be potentially NEW viruses and NEW pandemics, you see the revenue after all WAR is no longer profitable, the new PROFIT motive is Infectious diseases and their Vaccine so called cures, it makes sense they have been working on the Corona Virus at least since 2010, finally pulling out of the joint venture Wuhan Lab in 2019.
