Good. It should be around 300 baht per day though, and cover comprehensive accident insurance and environmental improvements to make Thailand the premier destination in Asia.

As I read it his wife, also with Covid, was in the same hospital but in a different room. How you consider the decision not to allow them to be together is up to you. Personally, I can't see any valid medical reason to deny that request, but I'm not a doctor. Certainly, his decision to go home in a huff was a bit of an overreaction; maybe if they'd explained to him exactly why it wasn't a good idea all this could've been avoided.  I do know that Siriraj Hospital, Bangkok, requires you to have a Thai person stay with you if you want a private room. If I was a cynical person I might suspect that getting the Farang to pay for two rooms, rather than one, might be a motive, but I'm sure that wasn't the case here; no doubt, there are good medical reasons to keep covid patients separated.

 

 Exactly all this berating ..

What would possibly be the problem with letting him stay with his wife ?.His problem was being diagnosed , and they should be allowed to self isolate in their home .

How many have done this already really ?  In the very least just let him stay with her , he had been previously obviously , little or no harm done .

Some of the judgemental responses Jezzzzz , let he who has not sinned ...

You didn't follow the discussion. We're talking about two different hand signs.

 

Although right now I'm thinking of a third 555...

my god, how many more covid stories do we have to be tortured with?

And yet you just had to not only click on it and read it but leave a comment as well, achieving maximum engagement in social media.

 

Seems schizo.

 

Hail saitan, I'm hungry, I say.

yes, achieving maximum engagement and collecting haters.

Quite right.

 

No difference to Ploy Cherman swanning around on holiday while Covid positive.

 

Only difference is that's she a Thai superstar.

Which is surprising as it's the Thai governments Chinese ally that invented COVID.

 

Any reason given why he couldn't share a hospital room with his wife?

Normal Thai hospital policy is to insist a relative shares your room.

Agree, I can understand if he had COVID and his wife didn't, but if they both have it I can't see the logic of separating them.

Perhaps the hospital has a no-bonking policy.

Still waiting on the medical reason why they were separated. Sometimes Thailand just drives you crazy. Having lived here for 10 years plus, sometimes you just have to put your personal feelings in abeyance. Still remember when I was on a drip in hospital, went  to immigration with all the paperwork, and they still charged me for reporting late. Yeah, I went a bit crazy, didn't help much though.

Making gang signs, obvious criminal, deport.

Seriously, the only reason I can think of for 2 separate rooms is money; the hospital can charge more.

He has been ordered into a hospital, (in accordance with the law) but his wife, who also has Covid has not. Why not? 

 

Are they not aware that the wife can also pass on the virus to the relatives and neighbours?

 

 

As I read it, his wife IS in the hospital.

 

The same hospital.

 

But a different room, and he wanted to share her room, and that was the cause of the dispute. (Not in any way justifying him walking out).

Yes, you're quite right Sheryl it was me who did the misreading. Although I did had some empathy with him. I hate being in hospitals!

Better the both of them self quarantine at home.  Save a hospital bed and save them money.

Another racist post. Obviously both countries need more big-headed, loudmouthed know-it-alls not unlike yourself. 

 

White folks from the UK and US are of the same race.

Makes a fuss about not being able to share a hospital room with his wife, ie. can't be close to his wife, so leaves and walks home, ie. leaving his wife alone in hospital.

 

Ummm... ok.

 

[nausea]

The race, cultural issue is false. From my experience most guys are the same, as are most women. One or two get into some weird <deleted>. Up to them?

You are interested in making sense now. Insulting people because of their nationality is racist. Ask a fenian.

These sort of entitled people who think rules are not for them are the reason we need rules in place.

 

I can't see him following procedures if left to his own devices.

 

Deport and blacklist the idiot.

Comical isnt it, most posters on here spend a lot of their time having a go at British people, yet here it is an American idiot.????

Somebody should remind him where he is, not home in the land of the free.????

 

I find it funny too, but reverse most posters on here spend a lot of their time having a go at Americans by Brits. but you are right this American is for sure an idiot I think even in the land of free his wish wouldn't have been permitted either?????

[nausea]

True love, actually, I'd think most Thais would empathise with this. Personally, I'd pay you to put my wife at a distance, just joking.,. I love her really.

[Bkk Brian]

Idiots all over the world but this is one prime example. The finger pointing was a fine example of his arrogance and contempt. Embarrassment for all of us living here.

 

His Nationality, US, sorry you guys, you've got the limelight on this one, but it could easily have been any other, I've seen Australians acting like idiots, UK, Europeans, Asians and Thai's.

Because of one nutter you denigrate two nations as having many idiots. That is where the "race card" came from. 

If you do not see that as a racist slur, that is your problem.

One countries leader was suggesting bleach injections, some malaria drug, critised people who wore masks and ended up with the most covid deaths worldwide. Ignored the medical advice and contracted covid personally.

 

The other walked around covid wards in hospitals shaking hands with everyone, told people to cop it on the chin. Ignored medical advice and contracted covid personally.

 

Nothing to do with the racecard mate. 

It is called common sense.

[Bradmeister]

There us no farangland.  Why encourage people to be ignorant and racist?

 

As far as a man wanting to suffer or die with his wife.....what is it anyone's business? 

 

Quarantine him and his wife at home as many districts are being forced to do the same. 

 

Did or have none not read the countless stories of overfilled hospitals, closed hospitals?

 

Guess what? 

 

They're true and as I type this: people are being quarantined in their homes.
