It will be over when we stop testing asymptomatic people for no reason at all 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargeezr Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I wore a mask, a N95 mask for pollution issues in Bangkok, even before COVID came along. In the future I will still wear a mask on the bad air days in Bangkok. At Hua Hin, and South Pattaya areas, I seldom wore a mask as the air was much cleaner there most days, however in Pattaya one day, my friends and I wore a mask as every Thai around us, said the air was not fog, but smog, and no good for lungs, We all thought better safe than sorry. I do hope that COVID is becoming endemic. Life has to get back to some kind of normal, and right now it is not normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have likely been here longer than you.....and not taken a trip out for a few years now. As I said, many are not bothering with masks, recently in the Pattaya area, certainly not outside, also occasionally in supermarkets (Malls). I personally do, always in the latter case. There are no police going about arresting people not wearing them, so the cry-babies who are unable to suffer them are not really forced to. Even security in Malls aren't bothering.

Onerak Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I will believe the real risk is gone only when US CDC will remove countries from their high risk level 3 to low risk level 1. Now I only see India has achieved that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me, these journals, do they have balloons coming from the characters head with words (short ones) written in them? You don't come across as particularly well rounded literally.

Really? That is a very nice way to say: All those doomsayers -the self-declared medical experts- and the government health officials got it totally wrong ! Their horror scenario mathematical simulations did not work - again. Ferguson and the Imperial College made in Thailand. … how long will it take them to realize, there are already quite a number of disturbing studies in other countries like USA, Denmark, UK, Israel,… and to evaluate the negative effects of their Covid measures on Thailand and steer against them? - psychological problems, kids loosing years in school, Foegen effect, V-AIDS, … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have I gotten it wrong all this time? I've always thought laws and regulations were defined by the governing bodies who make them.............. not by the numbers of people who choose to break them.

When the government say anything about everything, the opposite is invariably the truth. Tourism, Covid, Protests, Drugs, Sex, Rock n Roll. All pulled out of someone's ancient and high-ranking ass.

People breaking the law and ignoring the law........... changes the law............ in Thailand? That's astounding! Therefore, people not wearing masks in Thailand......... means there is no government mask mandate in Thailand............. (which is what was implied in the post I originally responded to.) Because........... apparently............ "[I] do not understand Thailand and how it is." Man, it must feel good to be so much better informed! Cheers!
