Just like at risk from getting killed going to the shops, driving your car, or even from having a heart attack ? Yet you hide from such a small risk ? How many ex pats do you know who have died from Covid, or even been in ICU Then how many ex do you know who have died by other causes ?

I am the same and with a condition that puts me in a higher risk category. I also have been suffering from this ####. I am not ignorant. I am sorry you have been struggling. But there are posters here that aren't even content with mass vaccinations, because they are not a complete cure (they only have ever reduced severity of symptoms). We can't save everyone. People who are wealthy, and/or recipients of permanent passive income streams don't need to get out and earn a living. Most others do. Those posters are ignorant/selfish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t have the balls to make a tough call and lockdown when things started to get worse, hoping instead that things would not get worse. Now you’re in the unpleasant situation other countries have been before, you know you have to lockdown but you also know that a short lockdown won’t be enough. Your conclsion fine , but "mistake as all other countries did before them" China and a few others were very strict Vietnam etc Deaths per million far lower than most Westrn countries. Despite having to tackle the outbreak unprepared. I makes you wonder if the authorities who cannot control borders also fail to control internal movement, lucky they never have to face a determined armed opponent like Israel or Ukraine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To create "herd Immunity" its generally understood you need to first protect the elderly and vulnerable and a large proprtion of others to be immunised to stop the initial spread, then maybe "Herd Immunity" but dont forget new variants might overcome immunity on this and any other basis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do not agree then Google "lockdowns don't work study" or even better search the same on Duck Duck Go. (Google without the censorship) That is total nonsense ! Of course lockdowns work , they dont stop a virus but very clearly they do slow down the rate of infection. However there must be an end game , in this instance vaccines , without mass vaccination in sight , lockdown in itself is fairly pointless. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone explain how closing shopping malls an hour earlier than usual is supposed to stop the spread of the virus? The malls should have been completely shuttered a long time ago , but look at who owns them , turkeys dont vote for Xmas! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely more suicides, depression and other mental illnesses. A legacy that will have caused so many people to be ruined for life and on the poverty line. Anyone not holding enough cash reserves is screwed. This is going to get very very ugly. You are correct . However that is not an argument against lockdowns , simply an indictment of a feudal government that is unwilling to financially support its citizens in their time of need. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who in there right minds goes and gets a Covid test when they don't feel sick. Then if you pop positive, you become a burden on the health care system. "Hi. I feel fine, but I have a bed in a Thai hospital - 3 hots and a cot. And a bevy of health care workers to take care of me." Only sick people should get tested and if found to be positive, then only truly seriously sick people should be hospitalized. I saw this coming months ago. Pull up my posts. They've saturated the capacity of their health care system with PCR positives that are not physically sick. If the morons had mobilize three months ago and created the human resources necessary and infrastructure necessary to monitor those caring for themselves at home (mildly ill or asymptomatic) then they wouldn't be in this total unconscionable mess. It beggars believe. The sheer negligence. Well - they are well and truly screwed now. The PM and his cabinet made their beds, now enjoy sleeping in them. I really pity all of the people, both Thai, foreign, and especially migrants, who have needlessly been exposed to Covid and who are paying the price of government malfeasance in so many ways. Well everyone - protect yourselves. No one pretending to be in charge is going to help you. Stay safe. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope that the most despised people by this regime in Thailand, those in the South, North and North East can succumb far less to this contagion by their outdoor living and working culture.
