I don't understand why it's such a big thing about wearing a mask. This morning her indoors had to go to one of the local offices to sort out some paperwork and there was an expat shouting at the staff because he was asked to wear a mask in the office.

I would describe exactly what I think of him but it would be deleted by the mods.

Let's just say I don't agree with the 'if you don't like it here go home posts' but, in this case it fits, for this xxxxxle anyway.

While they are at it why don't they enforce wearing a helmet on a motor bike, The fine there is only 200 baht, big difference in fines but equally dangerous. I wear both mask and helmet.

Well one person falling off his bike and smashing his head in doesn't infect others to make their heads smashed in.

One Covid infected person refusing to wear a mask/use hand cleaner/and shouting at everyone in an office is very likely to infect others.

Because not wearing a helmet is only dangerous for the non-user. Not wearing a mask can be dangerous for others.

As for wearing a mask when riding your motorbike............
