rooster59 Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Visitors to beaches 'must strictly adhere to precautions' By THE NATION Photo credit: Facebook เทศบาลแสนสุข People visiting beaches must wear medical masks and maintain social distance, Dr Panpimol Wipulakorn, the Department of Health’s director-general, said. Panpimol advised people to avoid shouting in public places, as that was one of the ways the virus spread to others. Moreover, those in risk categories, such as elders and patients with respiratory ailments, should avoid going to crowded venues and confine outings to one or two hours. People who get fever, coughing or sneezing after visiting tourist sites should see a doctor, the director-general advised. Panpimol mentioned that her department, together with other relevant agencies, had provided safety for visitors to public attractions and beaches “We have told our staff at these places to wear medical masks during their working time, and ordered them to provide sanitisers to visitors,” she added.

Popular Post fruitman Posted June 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2020 Beaches are far more safe than skytrains and shoppingmalls since they're open and outdoors... They better focus on the vendors in malls who just took their mask off because they can... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bkk Brian Posted June 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2020 I support the current advice on the use of masks but on a beach is one step too far. Social distancing is adequate. Its far to hot for masks on beaches, renders them useless in my opinion, you'd always be touching them, arranging them and sweating in them. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCP108 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Tourism in the "new normal" must focus on things that are fun to do while wearing a mask. That'll help them restart the tourism sector. Oh, wait...nothing is very much fun while wearing a face mask. I take it back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Paiman Posted June 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2020 I am tired of all this Beach nonsense. They should move on and give the people their lives back, if it is still possible. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are hazardous places because folks are enjoying themselves there (whatever this means). A new generation of baby boomers needs to be avoided at all cost.

Social distancing is adequate. Its far to hot for masks on beaches, renders them useless in my opinion, you'd always be touching them, arranging them and sweating in them. You're missing the point. Making us wear masks on the beach and do other daft things is not really about health and safety. It's about power: Do as you are bloody well told, or else. I learned this the hard way, as I incredulously obeyed orders to iron the pimples of my army boots with a hot spoon, fold my underwear into neat little eight-inch squares, and paint a heap of coal white. Power has a logic all its own. Hopefully we won't need to bring back national service to spread the message. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are No new Wuhan Flu infected people from inside Thailand .the Only New infected and suspected infected wuhan Flu people are people that Came from Outside Thailand .They are Nearly All detected and in Quarantine or in a hospital. There's a bigger risk to get Infected with the Normal Flu and Dengue and Malaria than the Wuhan Flu. the Mask thing is not needed anymore but for reassurance can wear one going into supermarkets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrTuner Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Nobody listens, this is Thailand. Back to square one, all the lockdowns were pretty useless. They got some testing capability upgraded, but the tracing is still slow and manual. Whatever education they tried to do or could do went to deaf ears. What a waste and bound to be repeated ad infinitum. It's embedded in the populace thanks to deep mistrust in the usurpers. Nobody listens to corrupt villains.

Most people here are already in the M section. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

utalkin2me Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Mask don't tend to do too well in saltwater. So I am guessing if you decide to go swimming no mask is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
