Popular Post webfact 131347 Posted January 13 Popular Post Share Posted January 13 An online job listing has gone viral in Thailand this week. It features a man seeking to hire a social companion, who has tested positive for COVID-19, in a deliberate attempt to get infected. The listing, apparently written by a broker, indicated that the client is offering ฿3,000 to ฿5,000 to a suitably qualified drinking companion. “COVID-positive only. The client wants to catch the coronavirus,” read the listing. It is believed that the “client” plans to take advantage of a popular COVID-19 health insurance plan in Thailand.
