Looks pretty relaxed with minimal restrictions re masks wearing etc. Sure then it must be true...... now only the PM or Chonburi governor has to confirm this ......just a formality after You tube announcement .... ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. It’s only a YouTube announcement but it is from Flowers who is seen by some as the man who knows all in Pattaya nightlife so fingers crossed.

It was really trending downward until we had today's spike upwards which fir a Saturday set of numbers is rare. Hopefully it is just an anomaly. Or maybe because they are sequencing some more tests as more people are stepping forward with minor symptoms they found more cases. The Authorities are probably upping the testing a bit to look for Omicron, and are finding the more numerous cases. As has always been said by many " test and you will find " 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he said that before Omicron or now recent after the latest variant appeared on world stage ? ???? Yesterday's live stream. Certain bars maybe open today but NOT OFFICIAL, I doubt if bars will be open till the New Year....possibly. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And again. This has no doubt been pointed out to you before. As usual you totally ignore the facts, to create your own fantasy. Watching YouTubers that have been proven totally wrong week after week, month after month. A bit like yourself. Restaurants are allowed to serve alcohol. Sausage roll and a bottle of Chang, what a treat after travelling 6000 miles. Thai PM has said bars, gogos and nightclubs will remain shut until at least January 16th but most likely longer as they can lead to mass spreading events. CCSA will make the decisions, not Pattaya pimps. Wish there was a fact checker/fake news alert button on this site. Your "contributions" would be dinged off the chart. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bkk Brian Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Believe it or not! Anti-vax protest took place in Bangkok's Silom this afternoon. How many joined? From @MatichonOnline pics, it looks as if there were more placards. https://twitter.com/PravitR/status/1467086399006408704 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Unger Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) I have been hearing many reports of serious vaccine related complications and deaths and these being blamed on the virus instead of the vaccine.

mommysboy Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 For me the single most important thing is to get 95% of over 60's and the vulnerable vaccinated, and periodically boosted. This dramatically reduces both hospitalizations and deaths. I think others should be advised to get vaccinated, particularly if overweight or unfit. This being done, there really is no need for any limitations other than sensible precautions, such as mask wearing and hygiene. Now, if omicron renders the vaccines ineffective, even partially so, we're really in the cart again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All for show, Omicron is in Thailand, it just hasn't been discovered because of their pathetic volume of sequencing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThailandRyan Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 8 hours ago, Bkk Brian said: From todays official figure, the over 60's double vaccination rate is 62.8% Still a long way to go on all fronts as far as reaching the vaccination numbers they wanted here. It is funny that folks you have indicated the numbers will be at the levels of 70% by years end and 100 million by the end of November have had to shift the goal posts again and again. When you include the boosters and 4th shots given to get to the 100 million and 70% vaccination rate by playing the numbers game it does seem a little like grasping at straws. As for the folks who have indicated that the High Season will be open and without restrictions just like many 100's of Thousands to millions will be headed to Thailand and the bars will be open, well they keep making statements but then has it really happened. Many of us have said that it did not look like it would happen and I guess we have been right at least in our views. The TAT Minister has been all over the board, and I believe he needs to stop with predictions and such. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
