The borders should be strictly controlled and every effort made to obtain more vaccines Sadly borders not any more issue here! Dosent matter even they open all! So much virus in Thailand already! If coming people go in ASQ they are more safe there than in other place in Thailand! And ASQ people are most tested people also!

People came here of their own free will so why should their governments carry the burden. “The ultimate aim of government is not to rule or restrain by fear, nor to exact obedience, but contrariwise, to free every man from fear, that he may live in all possible security; in other words, to strengthen his natural right to exist and work without injury to himself or others.........unless he moves abroad? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been shown that stronger vaccines can produce a better immune response than natural immunity. So all you accomplish is more spread, more mutations, and more death. That's one reason Russian and Chinese disinformation like this idea. Yes, there is a link: https://www.reuters.com/world/china/russia-china-sow-disinformation-undermine-trust-western-vaccines-eu-report-says-2021-04-28/ Fallacy. Your T-cells can handle virus variations that exceed 20% of the original strain genetic make-up. A vaccine is not capable of such feat. As for number of deaths e.t.c., it’s so minuscule that last year failed to register any excess death compared to 2019. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said fairness and justice as it relates to some current actions. However bad people have been in the past, I don't automatically blame them now for something that they maybe didn't do! From the point of 2014 I agree with you. But we live in the present and sometimes we have to deal with others we don't approve of while attempting for an outcome that offers the greatest good for the greatest number. You are angry about the way things have happened in Thailand and so am I but neither you or I have any control over these things so I find myself having to accept the situation and not allow it to interfere in matters that are not directly connected. Not angry Thailand has been this way for yonks but I think what is happening today stems from 2014 as that's when the incompetence reestablished itself as well as the corruption and lack of transparency.This is the same situation we are living with today a lack of transparency and corruption and convicted heroin smugglers in what you refer to as a government.This greed and corruption are affecting the response to the pandemic as they have no accountability where as democracies must at least answer to the population.The vaccine situation is what is showing as a prime example of this with Thailands insistence on delaying the acquisition of vaccines by refusing Indias offer of AZ in the beginning and the blocks put on the private sector and it's priority of Sinovac over others based god knows what.Mainly it's the not being accountable which drive the ineptitude.We may be living in the present but we are suffering from the past. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antonymous Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 7 hours ago, Bkk Brian said: There's a reality check twitter thread here from a foreign doctor and his family, including children + nanny etc in Thailand with his experience of the group catching covid, one died and the father and 2 and a half year old son both in serious condition in hospital. This is sobering reading and well worth the effort and yes young children can suffer seriously with the virus, I would paste it hear but it is too long, here's the first couple of tweets then you need to follow the thread: https://twitter.com/IntegralAnswers/status/1412644275980963841 1) My family’s experience with COVID in Thailand. On May 30th, a part time helper, employed by us to help with laundry, cleaning and most importantly caring for my 2 1/2 year old son and 10 year old daughter came to our home. When I returned home from work, she appeared ill. 2) I’m a physician. I immediately sent her to hospital for testing. Transferred money for her care. 3 days later (Jun 2) my 2 1/2 year old wakes complaining “My mouth hurts, Daddy.” He is hot to touch. Temp is 38.2C. Take family to hospital for tests. No word about helper yet. I read your link. Seems that you missed the crucial information that this doctor wrote. He went on to say: 4) Upon admission, X-rays confirm my son has pneumonia. 5) Daughter (2 neg tests) isolates with extended family. X-rays confirm I have pneumonia. Yes, pneumonia affects young children. Covid only in very rare cases. I had pneumonia as a child. Was three weeks in hospital. My sister had pneumonia last year and nearly died. She was intubated. The hospital (in the UK) tested her four times during her stay trying to diagnose Covid, but no, it was definitely pneumonia. Thailand had an average 122 deaths a DAY from flu and pneumonia in 2018. We are still quite a long way off reaching that statistic with Covid. Both pneumonia and Covid are contagious and deadly, but they are not the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqwakvfr Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 2 is 1(is that like 7 of 9?). Under $4,000 a month seemed rather low even for the PM of Thailand. Just a simple question and to offer a comparison to an average former American Public Servant who achieved a low rank while in his past service. The End.

Pneumonia is the number 1 symptom of covid in serious cases. It is caused as a result of catching the virus. Why do you think the first thing they do is xray your lungs.
