If you have doubts, kindly explain why markets, BTS and trucks rammed full with labour workers have no need for the upmost care? Why is it ONLY bars cause spikes LOL. Wake up people. It is always safe to completely disregard any post that has "wake up people" in it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's out of his control really, if there's a huge spread of COVID during the yearly respiratory virus season in Europe and the US then nothing's opening up, anywhere. Lets not forget this is the first winter where this slightly more infectious 'delta' version is circulating, that's going to be interesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

De Ja Vue me thinks " Its Ok for people to travel over Songkran, and we will have to deal with the consequences later " And just look at what the consequences were, and the Government is still trying to deal with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep the bars closed until they have 80 percent of the population vaccinated . Workers making a living for there families crammed on a truck is a better calculated risk than a bar full of hot air to put it politely. LOL. There is no getting through to some.

spidermike007 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Thailand would be infinitely more stable, if they locked up both Prayuth and Anutin, or just prevented them from EVER speaking to the press. They are really bad news. First of all, neither of them have any credibility remaining. Secondly, they lack any specifics and will say anything and everything without knowing anything. And thirdly, they are both despised by 99% of Thais, expats and tourists. Just shut up the imbeciles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post adam1 Posted October 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 13, 2021 I went to the driving range in the evening and took a beer from 7/11.... Felt a bit guilty putting it on the table...as everyone else was drinking coffee... Except they weren't, they were drinking beer out of plastic cups, served by the Thai shopkeepers at the range who would come out and fill the beakers at regular intervals. The range is owned by local bigwigs. Everyone knows what is going on. It's the same in bars and restos now. This is why I don't fear the alcohol ban being lifted. People are already drinking together. Everyone knows it, and if you don't, well, you're not really on the ball. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read out of it, what you want… „Increases in COVID-19 are unrelated to levels of vaccination across 68 countries and 2947 counties in the United States“ … that study more or less says, that your initial demand get first 80% vaccinated, before opening the bars is nonsense, as you were told. The 80% vaccination rate would not lower possible increase in infection… 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would not matter who was in control of Thailand concerning the outcome of the covid 19 pandemic . Such nonsense. A qualified health minister would not have benefited Thailand? I cannot believe you just said that. Huh? Really? Prior to announcing the construction sites clusters will be closed, would it not have made sense to have had a plan in place, to deal with the workers, test them, and determine how many needed to be quarantined? What kind of defective, intellectually incapacitated leadership makes a plan like this due to Covid infections, and then makes no provisions to lock down the sites long enough to determine who is infected? And then allow thousands of super spreaders to exit Bangkok, and travel throughout the nation? Prayuth has zero credibility, on any level. He is stunningly incompetent, and has long overstayed his welcome. And now, he has failed the nation miserably with this latest wave, which could have easily been avoided, had some precautions been taken by locking down Samut Sakhon province immediately, and later locking down Bangkok, as you creeps promised you would. Just another failure to uphold any and all promised you make. Your word is about as good as the word of a snake oil salesman, in Tombstone, in 1872. And we don't even need to discuss the total vaccination failure and debacle. Are they deliberately trying to sabotage any chances of recovery? Or, are they really and truly this inept, and this unable to lead, effectively? If the latter is true, Prayuth and Anutin are the two most dangerous people in Thailand right now.

If that works, then progress to the bars. This will be a form of gradual opening taking it a little at a time. Impractical really... staff certainly do not want to be turning folks away or reseating them away from friends. Some places I use tables are outside and well spread apart, and should be fine.

There is zero logicv to singling out bars, they do it simply because they can and feel it makes them look clever. The fact is, there have been plenty of cases in markets yet they are allowed to open again after 3 days or cleaning. There is no logical or scientific rerason to single out bars, end of. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
