This was my first trip outside since having a heart attack in August and was ruined. I usually get a couple of bad colds per year but this is the first year I haven't, presumably thanks to everyone being more hygienic than usual. But then it just takes one selfish type to spoil that, and having seen those slow motion videos of coughs and sneezes where everything within a couple of metres receives thousands of tiny saliva droplets, I'm quite sure myself and my partner were covered. He didn't even put a hand or sleeve up. I think such behaviour should be classed as "reckless indifference" towards the health & safety of others, should be a crime like drunk driving, and deserves deportation. The question that springs to my mind is that because everyone knows that such characters exist everywhere if one is so worried about catching it, why would one go where such characters are in evidence? I'm sure the OP was properly equipped with the correct PPE to prevent becoming infected by such inconsiderate persons that they don't even put a hand over their mouth, though I see many, many such people nowadays and usually young adults. At least in my early days we were taught to be considerate- something that seems to be lacking the past 20 or so years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Curt1591 Posted October 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2020 (edited) Good thing you hang out around foreigners. My observations show me that for every foreigner not properly masked, Isee dozens of Thais. That said, I think you might have caught a severe case of Covidiocy!

Sundown Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 (edited) In my own experience I see a lot more Thais coughing with open mouth compared to Falangs. You know that useless dry cough that seems more a nervous tic than a real throat condition. Maybe now they do it less but before covid it was rampant. The best was when the 7/11 lady did that repeatedly while preparing your drink or food. Good times. Edited October 3, 2020 by Sundown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how anyone who coughs loudly being next to someone could not avoid it, but again I'm a non smoker, and don't have any illnesses that would make me cough, apart from clearing my throat, so I am not sure how easy or hard it is to avoid coughing suddenly.

If there was no stupid then we would not need regulations anywhere ! Social behaviour would be passive, crime would not exist, harmony would prevail, justice would have no definition, we would all be ......ameoba? Just try to imagine it! I think the post above actually got it right ! "If there was no stupid then we would not need regulations anywhere !" As someone who will disobey any law or rule that comes out that I do not agree with if I can find a way around it, I do not agree with the "stupid" part of the post. There are people who are not stupid but just pure bad, and have no consideration for anyone, although it's a very small minority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who deliberately disfigures him or herself by being heavily tattooed is just plain stupid, but as someone with a full head of hair, I would not condemn anyone for being a skinhead, if you lose your hair on top and have dark hair round the side and back of your head, that is much more unsightly, better just shaving it all off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone in CM has given up on masks and social distancing, apart from 7-11/supermarkets/malls. Probably a far greater risk to your health from picking a fight with a tattooed Russian, than from any disease.

I went to the dentist and was told my temp was 35.4. I was surprised to learn I was nearly hypothermic, as I felt fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
