Popular Post webfact 135961 Posted May 28 Popular Post Share Posted May 28 Sanook Thai Caption: No monkeypox in Thailand Thailand's DPM and Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul stated yesterday that there were no confirmed cases of monkeypox in the kingdom. The only suspected cases from countries being monitored for the disease turned out to just be herpes, reported Sanook. The minister was answering press questions at health ministry HQ in Bangkok yesterday after getting back from the 75th World Health Assembly in Geneva on Thursday. He had been apprised of the monkeypox situation by Dr Rome Buathong of the International Communicable Disease Control and Quarantine Division.

He urged the continued wearing of masks, frequent hand washing and social distancing. He said he had raised the question of monkeypox and vaccines with WHO chief Dr Tedros Ghebreyesus who assured him of assistance if required. Thailand was ready, however, with measures of its own in this regard saying that the Government Pharmaceutical Organization (GPO) has kept frozen smallpox vaccine for more than 40 years and sent it to the Department of Medical Science for quality inspection already. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2022-05-28 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Popular Post chalawaan 2429 Posted May 28 Popular Post Share Posted May 28 I can't believe Thai tourists are no longer feeding local monkeys in time honoured custom just because a disease was found in monkeys in Africa decades ago, and therefore named after them. The fear and ignorance is breathtaking. The WHO was right to name Covid variants as they did, because too many people on this planet are dumber than apes. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep myself clean and don't mate with people who exhibit unhygienic behaviour or sores visible anywhere, during a "meet n greet". This may draw laughs, but I also make girls wash their hands first thing back in the room, I always have, long before Covid. As a rule I don't glove up Captain happy unless the lady insists (usually the second round is a bareback) and I've been no worse off than the odd Zithromax-cured bug here and there over decades of debauchery.

Popular Post spidermike007 54505 Posted May 28 Popular Post Share Posted May 28 All the fear and speculation about monkey pox is one of the most ridiculous things I have witnessed in a very long time. I think humanity may have lost it's collective mind. 200 cases worldwide, and it is already being pronounced as the next pandemic. It appears that some parties can't get enough of the fear and panic, and others can't get enough of the control and profits. 9 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though, in a round about twisted manner, they are extremely good at what they do. Has to be admired. Well knowing that the collective populations [yes...us] aren't terribly connected and have diminished cognitive skills. Oh well..... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
