Short story we will be wearing mask for the at least the next two years. 

The "man of colour" was clearly a prxck.When in Rome etc.But the sad thing about this storm in a teacup is that the journalist who wrote this article described him as m o c instead of black man.For Christs sake most of us came to live in LOS came here to escape all that newspeak bullsxxt.

You have no idea of my sources. Research of the efficacy of facial masks in preventing the spread of influenza predates Covid-19 and there was a lot of research. WHO actually used this research in their flip-flopping on their guidelines to the use of PPE. One such article has about 50 references to PubMed studies.

 

You continue to troll this same message. You're doing a good job at maintaining the forum's adherence to the "Gospel of Covid", a treatise of acceptable truths. May I commend you on the excellent job you're doing. Keep up the good work.

 

 

I wish I could commend you on spreading anti face mask propaganda, but you just might cause someone to die.

I most certainly have not. I have not presented a single article, report or scientific study suggesting that masks are not useful. It is unlawful in Thailand not to wear one, and I've suggested in a number of posts that everyone wear one to avoid problems with the authorities. Whether we believe they are useful or not is beside the point. We don't get to decide that, so relax, I'm not killing anyone.

I think many people don't understand that calling a black person a black person is perfectly cool. In their defense it can be difficult to keep up with language norms. People of color is more or less passe.

Before jumping on the main stream media band wagon,

you may want to check the facts about masks.

Check:

The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons
https://aapsonline.org/mask-facts/

 

Also for those to lazy to check anything:

World Health Organization (WHO), June 2020

    https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handle/10665/332293/WHO-2019-nCov-IPC_Masks-2020.4-eng.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y
    “The likely disadvantages of the use of mask by healthy people in the general public include:
        potential increased risk of self-contamination due to the manipulation of a face mask and subsequently touching eyes with contaminated hands;
        potential self-contamination that can occur if non- medical masks are not changed when wet or soiled. This can create favourable conditions for microorganism to amplify;
        potential headache and/or breathing difficulties, depending on type of mask used;
        potential development of facial skin lesions, irritant dermatitis or worsening acne, when used frequently for long hours;
        difficulty with communicating clearly;
        potential discomfort;
        a false sense of security, leading to potentially lower adherence to other critical preventive measures such as physical distancing and hand hygiene;
        poor compliance with mask wearing, in particular by young children;
        waste management issues; improper mask disposal leading to increased litter in public places, risk of contamination to street cleaners and environment hazard;
        difficulty communicating for deaf persons who rely on lip reading;
        disadvantages for or difficulty wearing them, especially for children, developmentally challenged persons, those with mental illness, elderly persons with cognitive impairment, those with asthma or chronic respiratory or breathing problems, those who have had facial trauma or recent oral maxillofacial surgery, and those living in hot and humid environments.

 

 

 

Face masks don't always work ? Well neither do Parachutes but if I ever jump out of a airplane I still want to be wearing one...

so if everyone had a mask on except them, how does that effect them ? Masks make you safe from Covid, don't they ? 

not saying he is right or wrong, but why does it bother you, as long as you are wearing the mask ?

Just put a mask on and stop being such an argumentative brat for heavens sake.....

Most of these places now have employees who sit outside the shop. I understand not being allowed to go into a private business while violating their policy. I think he has a point otherwise. Those outside employees could take his order and give it to him outside. Seems we should encourage people to stay outside if we truly want to follow the science. Outside/outdoor infections have been shown to be much less prevalent.

If you're working or supporting yourself and spending a load of money in exchange for being allowed to stay in a country not your own, how could you possibly be considered a guest?

 

You're also free to complain about it, of course.

You are still a guest, but you have kindly being allowed to obtain a work permit, and you came here of you own free will...????

Nothing "kindly" about it.  It's a mutually beneficial arrangement.  Believe it or not Thai people/The Kingdom of Thailand actually benefit from having foreign people here.

 

I know that's hard for the "I'm the only gay in the village" types here to come to terms with, but it's true.

And one can stay of one's own free will, and complain of one's own free will.

Go read the new data from the study after two doses of pfizer after five months you are only protected by 10% of not getting  corvid 19!  91% chance you won't get serious ill. But 90% chance of getting infected! Read the study not just media headlines 

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/23/delta-variant-pfizer-covid-vaccine-39percent-effective-in-israel-prevents-severe-illness.html

First, Media Headlines?  can you confirm that is how I came to my opinion?  funny people say stuff like this then quote to others exactly what they are criticizing others!  WWW. CNBC  I read the article I think you would get lots of debate from medical researcher from the Health Minister of Israel regarding these numbers it isn't past on trials etc. it is just his opinion from results in this one country if it was a stand alone only country in the world you might have something but you done.  Is cnbc not part of the media?

Taco Bell Boi was out and about on the Jomtien strip this evening with no mask.

So much for the outrage.

I don't know what this man is thinking:  He is NOT in his country and as such you follow the rules of the country you are a guest in.  If you don't like it, then leave.  Your rights are not necessarily a priority or a concern to the country you are visiting!  He needs to be educated about being in a guest country; that country has all the "rights" to do what they want, NOT YOU.  

Wear the mask and have an enjoyable day! Cheers!!

In the posted video he claimed he retired at age 25.  Quite a feat if true.  What type of visa is he on?  Did he have a police investigation clean bill of health?  Things just seem a bit odd

Maybe he is a trust fund baby, or he invested in crypto and cashed it out, who knows, and sometimes you just have to wonder.

It is a perfectly relevant to question to ask. 

 

And the answer is of great relevance with regard to analyzing the covid outbreak lockdown procedure.

Where is this "around here" where a very small percentage of people are wearing masks. In Pattaya everyone is wearing masks. You can't get into a store without one and even on motorcycles everyone is wearing one.

 

I keep hearing this and it is a perfect example of people seeing what they want.  They honestly see very few people wearing masks.  To confirm it they take pictures of a groups without masks forgetting the masses all around wearing them.

 

I hate masks but put the stinking thing on.  I run ( no mask but get the impression some would prefer I had one  ) through farming communities that are extremely unlikely to have a Covid death but again these villagers are wearing masks for the most part while outside their homes and it isn't needed IMO.  I would say 90% of motorcycle riders are masked!

 

The truth is probably in the middle somewhere. Masks aren't needed in most of our daily activities  and even while in groups outside.  I could be wrong so why not just wear a mask? Except while running - ha.
