Dengue Fever and Post-Dengue Syndrome
Unfortunately I’ve been involved with a chain of doctors - at Srinagarind Hospital, Khon Kaen University. At the pain clinic the doctor suggested I must have suffered an infection of some sort, but she doubted it was dengue. -

No. Generally, only the subsidized poor stay poor. The working poor quite often move up in a meritocratic system. -

Where's Harris' Concession speech?: Honey, I have a headache....
You should see those windmill blades up close. I don't know how long they are but I have read that the tip of those things are moving upwards of 150 miles per hour. That is 220 feet per second, if I have done my math correctly. Try dodging that when it comes out of no where! If it were not for global warming, my house, here in Pennsylvania, could be underneath a very, very thick sheet of ice that covered Canada and the northern part of the United States about 10,000 to 15,000 years ago!! -

Motorcycle riders and passengers not wearing helmets could be detained at a police station
Are we only talking about central Bangkok roads or within the Kingdom? I think we know the answer to that. Will never happen. Motorcycle riders and passengers not wearing helmets could be detained at a police station for an hour to encourage future compliance, said Transport Minister Suriya Juangroongruangkit. Suriya highlighted that road accidents are a major concern for the government, with a target to reduce fatalities to 12 per 100,000 people by 2030. The Ministry of Transport is focused on improving safety through stricter laws, higher standards for driver's licenses, and vehicle regulations in line with international norms. The Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Public Health are also working to enhance the driver's license process with digital systems and improve health screenings and driver performance assessments. A proposal is underway to include two helmets with every motorcycle purchase, instead of one, expected to be implemented soon. Additionally, discussions with police will focus on helmet enforcement. Offenders will not be fined immediately but will be asked to wait at the station for at least an hour as a deterrent. Public Health Minister Somsak Thepsuthin noted that road traffic accidents cause an average of 18,000 deaths, over 10,000 disabilities, and more than 1 million injuries annually, with economic losses exceeding 6 billion baht per year. The Ministry of Public Health plans to improve emergency medical systems and establish 24 occupational health clinics by 2025 to assess drivers' fitness to drive. -

Baby Found Abandoned in Trash Skip at Condo in Bo Win
Brutal, but I think many people would agree... Its almost as if we should need a licence to 'procreate'... I've heard the arguments that 'something' should be put in the water to prevent pregnancy - and only after approval is a 'pill issued' to reverse the effect.. Of course, this is inhane, impractical and dangerous, so of course its note a real suggestion... But... the point is there - there is a lot irresponsibility, particularly in the West where there is far greater education on such matters. In Thailand I see these issues as being far more tragic when there is less edication, far greater degrees of destitution and desperatoin and women end up in situations having unwanted or accidental pregnancys in far greater numbers earlier on in their lives.... Father is responsible of course - but how many of them know they are potential fathers. I used to say: When we take the deicsion to sleep with a woman, we also take on the deceision to be potentially responsible for any children or take measures to ensure such does not occur.
