Not much else can be said really. How can the government not see this totaly false medical statement, and I'm sure no reputable doctor worth their salt would agree with him, as a loss of face for their countries medical status? This actually makes the whole system look flawed, lacking intelligence, and critical thinking skills to the rest of the world and medical field?

flexomike Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 so my sister in law who is a moderate drinker ended up in ICU and my brother who is a very heavy drinker didn't get it, my opinion is that alcohol kills Covid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So covid can tell if you are drinking alcohol be it at home , restaurant , bar or nightclub ? If so why not just ban sales of it all together if it’s that bad according to this genius ! If I take a boat out into the middle of the sea alone and open a beer will the deadly covid come find me ? ???????? No. It's lurking in the beer........???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midwit Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 5 hours ago, Jeffr2 said: It does kinda make sense coming from the health department. Their job is the health of the Thai population. And we are in the midst of a health crisis. At any time did he say for people to go exercise? Obesity is one of the main factors of having a sever case of covid. Last I saw 78% of sever cases were in people that are obese. So if his job is the health of the Thai population and we are in the midst of a health crisis that seems to be what he should focus on.

Midwit Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Just know that clowns like this have been telling you 2 weeks to slow the spread for the last 612 days. Wear your mask, spray hand sanitizer on everything, close your businesses, schools, you can’t see your family, you can’t travel, you can’t go to the gym or park. That list goes on and on. The best one is get the jab, double jab and 4-6 months later get a booster because the jabs may now not be effective. Keep listening to these clowns because I’m not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't surprise me at all if Jan 15 is pushed back even further. I shouldn't worry. Before they get to that stage they have to go through the stage where drink driving is really frowned upon and that's never going to happen...

Flink Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 7 hours ago, Pumpuynarak said: But there are medical reasons. "Alcohol causes the muscles in the neck around the pharynx to be less effective," he said. "Thus allowing Covid to more easily penetrate and get into the lungs. "In addition alcohol weakens the white blood cells when Covid-19 germs enter the body," he continued. ""So it's easy to get infected." He failed to mention that imbibing large (or sometimes small) quantities of Thai beer also causes the rectal muscles to fail and the gut to over react leading to diarrhoea thereby emptying out all the virus that got into the throat. (Come on, it's no less plausible than his comment!) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised he didn't add that Covid is heavier than air so the effect of alcohol on the legs that causes people to fall down when drunk means they'll be exposed to higher concentrations of the Covid virus at floor level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over 38000 new infections from a population of 68m (up from 37111 on the previous day), Cases up 15% from last week. Not sure why your emphasis is on 'new infections'. Given that the UK tests more people than most countries in the world we're always going to get a high number of positive tests. Plus Covid isn't going away and we'll probably all get it. New infection numbers are becoming less relevant now. The important stats are deaths (down 11.7% in last 7 days) and hospital admissions (down 3.8% in last 7 days). Considering the UK is entering winter I'd say this is good news. https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/ Edited November 18, 2021 by CG1 Blue Added link 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
