The Bang Lamphu market was unusually quiet this weekend. Crowds of people buying food and clothes became history there after a 37-year-old man who had worked at an entertainment place in the area was confirmed as a new case of coronavirus disease 2019 infection

No surprises there, while some say what's all the hysteria about, others take their health more seriously.

Locals voting with their feet.

As for venues maybe they should check their staff a little more care.

When I go tesco they do temperature checks , I see staff walking in with no checks , when I ask why they say they work here . So in their head if work there can’t have chinese virus

They need a paranoia vaccine as it’s spreading quicker than COVID. Even some of the foreigners are now showing symptoms. 

No, they don't. They simply don't go there until the situation is cleared

Yes, that’s called Paranoia.

There's usually a realistic element in what Western psychiatrist call "paranoia" 

And it's not an overreaction to stay away from areas where contagious diseases might spread. 

 

I stay away from the West because I know how contagious "paranoia" (the fear of fear) can be.

Ha ha, there's no stopping this lot.....  They decimated tourism in the country, set the dog of immigration on farangs, and now they're wondering why there's nobody here.  They havn't worked out yet that farang =money=business=Thais..........   It's as crazy as gassing the country then asking where all the people have gone ?       But the good news is, the streets will be full shortly............
