Popular Post snoop1130 Posted June 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2020 Thailand safe from Covid-infected salmon imports: Fisheries Dept By The Nation Authorities have moved to quell fears that a second wave of the Covid-19 outbreak in China could spread to Thailand via imported salmon. China said on Thursday (June 18) that a new outbreak of the virus had been traced to imported salmon processed at Beijing’s Xinfadi food market. The news rocked confidence in the Thai seafood market, since Thailand imports large shipments of salmon. However, no raw-salmon products are shipped from China to Thailand, said Fisheries Department director-general Meesak Pakdeekong on Friday (June 19). Most salmon imports are processed and exported according to strict international standards, he added. “Moreover, there is no evidence that fish can carry the Covid-19 virus since their respiratory systems are different from those of mammals,” said the director-general.

Popular Post NB1986 Posted June 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2020 It is so funny how Thailand is following commie regime, ofcourse Salmon brought Covid-19 to China... Nobody is putting that news out only Thai, the small brother of China, but when big brother take out water from Mekong and Thai farmers suffer nobody cares about what big brother doung, because small brother must always listen and do same as big brother say. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ukrules Posted June 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2020 I know exactly why the salmon was found to be infected with traces of COVID. It came from the employees at the markets. Have you seen the Chinese, standing around hocking up a lung full of phlegm every 10 minutes or so and eventually spitting it somewhere? That mouth full of phlegm is full of COVID if they're infected and some of it ends up on the food, in this case salmon. Strangely this COVID food contamination only seems to happen in China, a place where they love to clear their throats of all phlegm with great regularity. ???? 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fxe1200 Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Pharmed Salmon is what we can buy here in Thailand. It might be covid free, but the amount of chemicals used to produce this fish, makes it unhealthy to consume. PCBs, dioxins, DDT and dieldrin, as well as Canthaxanthin and Emamectin benzoate are being used to raise the salmon. AFAIK wild salmon though is healthy but not available in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krabi King Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Title: "Thailand safe from Covid-infected salmon imports: Fisheries Dept" Final CONTRADICTIVE conclusion: "Moreover, there is no evidence that fish can carry the Covid-19 virus since their respiratory systems are different from those of mammals,” said the director-general. So this is how the media works (for governments) nowadays... click bait, misinformation, anything to draw attention. And lots of sheep reading and not thinking for themselves. Useless reporting...

Poor handling of the fish will cause contamination. It doesn't take much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most is farm raised. And how would one know if it was really wild caught salmon, if someone tried to sell it as such? I've eaten salmon, probably weekly, for the last 10 years. Nothing wrong with my last blood and urine tests. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the CCP’s absolute cover up, and f*** up of containing Wuhan, do you really think they deserve any benefit of the doubt? A regime that cries like a spoilt toddler when anyone accuses them of anything, but will in the drop of a hat just blame anyone else and say the most ridiculous and embarrassing things. The resentment towards the CCP grows stronger and stronger every day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet it’s so true. You want me to respond to the idea that a fisherman may have phlegmed on some salmon which may be the cause to Beijing’s ‘wartime mode’ with their local outbreak? No, I won’t be doing that. I won’t be doing that because that theory is stupid. Edited June 20, 2020 by rkidlad 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember, only a few weeks ago, China blamed the U.S. to be the origin of the virus. Now it's Europe, and even 'Norwegian salmon'! - All to avoid responsibility, and divert attention from the Chinese source, which, IMHO, is either an experiment in a laboratory gone wrong, which the Chinese government desperately tried, for weeks or even months, to sweep under the carpet (will we ever know the real extend of the pandemic in China?), or, even worse, perhaps, a calculated bio-weapon experiment. - One only needs to follow the latest news about what is going on in the South China Sea, where the PRC is behaving like an irrate teenager, pushing limits, and bullying Vietnam and the Philippines, or the recent massive cyberattack on Australia!

BTW I worked there and my boss, cantonese, made this comment to me regarding coworkers; "Chinese are taught to shut up when its not profitable to say anything, vice versa they never lie, just don't tell you anything which they believe could disadvantage their position." That makes their WHO sponsored investigations into The 2nd wuhan outbreak circle, doubly suspect. Edited June 21, 2020 by LomSak27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a large part of them was not in support of CCP, they would have toppled the commies already. Many are complicit. Either you fight the commies or you are one.
