snoop1130 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 The summer season in Thailand runs from February through May, as the weather tends to be warm this time of the year. Mammals, especially dogs and cats, are susceptible to rabies. As a result, many people and animals die from highly infectious diseases. In response to the authorities have launched an initiative to vaccinate pets and animals across the country.

Rabies is often rampant around this time of the year, Manat Dee, the president of Khlong Niyom Yatra Sub-District Administrative Organization, said, adding that pets would be prone to symptoms. He said that it was evident that in Khlong Niyom Yatra Sub-District, there are some 1,000 dogs and cats in total. -- © Copyright A24 News Agency 2022-03-08 - Aetna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Popular Post hughrection Posted March 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 8, 2022 Here's an idea - gather up all soi dogs and euthanize them. Address the issue Before it becomes a problem. Simple solution to an ongoing problem, but the usual 'we are Buddhist and we can't harm animals' prevails. The fact that they slaughter 100's of thousands of pigs and buffalo doesn't even register. ???? 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimHuaHin Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 TIT - this is not my problem, so I do not care. The notion of collective responsibility seems alien in TIT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now how many sub-Districts are there across the whole country? Rabies is a terrible disease resulting in agonising death yet no one will bite the bullet and load the guns. Thailand is 70 years behind Europe in this respect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Meeseeks Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 They need to get serious about the stray dog problem in Thailand if they ever want to come close to resembling a developed country. It's exactly the same with road safety. There's no will or authority to do what is necessary. Toom tabards the lot of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
