It's a difficult  choice for them but health is the priority. Nobody wants to work and get sick. Service  staff are in more danger of covid  than medical staff. The recent reopening, then infection  then reclosing of bars has been a hard lesson. It's very sad. Go Go bars etc are no longer  safe working environments in the current  situation.  No tightly packed, badly ventilated small spaces such as bar and G clubs can stay open for any length of time before a covid break out, illness, usually very distressing, then closure. That is the pattern until covid is under control. The recent opening of clubs around Pattaya  and Jomtien  was a medical experiment.

COVID will never be under control, it will be a stream of variants.

Just like colds and flus.

Yes, for an extra 100 baht she will put her phone down and use both hands.

So after month after month of massage shop closures a number of them on Klang by Buakhao have dropped the price to 80 baht an hour, already busy, finally they are realising by lowering the price you g

The place I used to go has the sauna still going but the girls are gone, except the one that used to massage me. She's selling fruit from a stall near the sauna, and massaging when a customer comes.

One of many bars closed last week  with sick staff.  foreign  customers are also getting sick which is not surprising.

 

Most of the foreigners here are retirees.  That's the most at risk age group.  I suspect we will start to see news of covid within the expat community shortly.

Talking of inflation, here's an example, Hungry Hippo Sunday chicken dinner was 99 baht a few months back now 179 baht

Not sure if that's inflation, or just now don't need to discount, since Thailand 'opened up', though may be discounting again, in the not too distant future.

Nightwish bars on Soi 6 are open from 2pm-9pm

Bryan is a zeitgeist and have tailored his the bars to be in compliance with the current laws and regulations. 

He is a very powerful businessman and pillar in the community but also a visible driving force for Pattaya and the entertainment industry. Furthermore he's very happy with how the governments and police are handling the covid situation. 

 

Come on down.

Has he tailored his bars to what customers want?  I'm not so sure he has.

I made it back to Patts today. Condo was a mess after 2 years so after 2 hours of quick cleaning I needed a beer. 

 

The walk from the Urban to Irish Rovers didn't seem any different to 2 years ago (except massages were 200 baht for 2 hours, wow). I saw Rib Shack still open and Cheap Charlie's was packed. The Spaggetti is still at the drinking spot on corner of soi Dianna but the Aussie burger stall is gone ???? The Nest at the entry to LK looked pretty good but didn't go in.

 

Irish Rovers waitresses just as friendly and beautiful as ever, Beer Singh cold as ice, about 10 people watching the Ashes, life is good ????

I love how the supposed covid infested pool tables become a convenient place to put the 'restaurant' aspect

Remember USA TV program 'The Beverly Hillbillies' and the 'fancy eating table' (snooker table)... darn I am showing my age!

When do you suspect we'll start seeing this news?

 

Next few weeks.  

 

Well known case of Phil from Le Pub having covid.  Who went to his bar, or who did he have lunch and / or a beer with, 2 weeks ago? 

 

Given the expat community mainly consists of retirees, the most vulnerable group, and with many of them not being in good health, some may not make it.

You think mpst of the expat community go to see Phil from Le pub - lol.

 

Pure quality, pls keep them coming....

 

Expats socialize with expats.  

 

Covid will soon be throughout the expat community, perhaps with some not being as lucky as Phil.

 

Or, do you think farang here are immune?  ????

I know a lot of farangs don't go anywhere near downtown Pattaya and are sensible about their movements.

 

I don't know anyone who know's this idol Phile of yours.

The expats ( like you ) socialize with bar girls - lol.

 

Do what if Covid goes through the expat community?? end of the world? very few will require hospital treatment.

 

Deal with it, things are improving.

Shouldn't they be living their lives?  Isn't that what you suggested?

And again, Harry, it's all about that few percent who have a reaction to covid that will need hospitalization.  If that number is greater than the amount of hospital capacity here, what do you think they will do?

I agree, they are, but Thailand is now entering a new phase in the pandemic, and one that is not about the amount of "cases" but about the amount of hospitalizations.

Don't let one particular member hear you say that, he's been predicting doom and gloom for Pattaya since before Covid.

 

Good for you getting back mate, enjoy!

I've had that particular member on banned list for over a year so don't care what he says with his continuous Pattaya is doomed theme. The guy should just leave Pattaya if he keeps predicting the end of the world is coming lol
