Crime Shocking Scene at Patong Beach as Tourist Couple Caught in Public Indecency
Everyone needs to take some bromine or something ( same as the couple) and calm down. People wanting imprisonment, punishment, some of you would hang them if you could. There is NO evidence in the photo of a sexual or obscene act. Two people in love or lust kissing on the beach in a country where extreme conservatism frowns upon such things. And to be clear, i would not want to walk past such an amorous couple with my kids and would be going ‘tut tut’ , but some of you really need to get a life with the voracity of your comments, you have lost the plot as much as the couple. -

What psychological factors make people overlook Trump's character flaws
Be careful, his clan members getting insulted like those snowflakes they despises The admiration of Mob gangs, drug catells as well Hitler Germany, Vikings, the Great Rome is genetics and also teached in to peoples mind from Kids. We still cultivate Great leaders and cultures that impacted the history in many ways, with little understanding how these people managed to get in to power. The worst is how Trump openly have shown his admiration for Despots and dictators, and also his admiration symbols, culture as well public show offs and wants military parades,,,, and ,,,,,,,, People are people, and people are either stupid, shallow or single minded and can't think of the long term consequences for their country or the world. -

ALL VACCINES WILL KILL YOU - The evidence is overwhelming
More copy and pasted from 'neurotic' ant-vax websites... 'Authorised' - a daft 'key word' that targets emotion rather than intellect... There is no universally authorised world wide narrative approved by some 'unknown group' that are attempting to pull the wool of the eyes of world history - thats preposterous. This content you 'pasted' is based on a combination of half-truths, misinterpretations, and conspiracy theories. The Spanish Flu was caused by the H1N1 influenza virus, and while bacterial pneumonia was a significant secondary complication, it was not the primary cause of the deaths. The idea that an experimental vaccine caused the Spanish Flu is a debunked conspiracy theory, with no scientific evidence to support it. "The reason modern technology has not been able to pinpoint the killer influenza strain from this pandemic is because influenza was not the killer." Modern technology has indeed been able to pinpoint the influenza virus as the cause of the Spanish Flu. In 2005, scientists successfully sequenced the H1N1 influenza virus from preserved samples of the 1918 flu virus, confirming it was the culprit. This contradicts the claim that influenza was not the cause of the pandemic. The virus was a novel strain that emerged from a reassortment of bird, pig, and human influenza viruses. Influenza was the killer, not a conspiracy or misidentified pathogen. "More soldiers died during WWI from disease than from bullets." This statement is true, but it needs context. The overall number of deaths from disease during WWI was staggering, including deaths from influenza, pneumonia, and other infections. However, it's important to note that disease deaths were caused by poor sanitation, malnutrition, and overcrowding, not just the flu. While more soldiers died from disease than bullets, this statistic alone doesn't prove that the Spanish Flu was caused by bacterial pneumonia or any experimental vaccine. Disease was a major factor in WWI, but the primary cause of the 1918 pandemic was the H1N1 influenza virus. "The pandemic was not flu. An estimated 95% (or higher) of the deaths were caused by bacterial pneumonia, not influenza/a virus." While secondary bacterial pneumonia was a major complication and caused many deaths during the 1918 pandemic, influenza was still the primary cause of the pandemic. The H1N1 influenza virus is well-documented as the initial trigger for the disease, and the bacterial pneumonia came after as a secondary infection. According to studies, secondary bacterial pneumonia was responsible for many deaths, but 95% of deaths being caused by bacteria is an overstatement. The influenza virus weakened the immune system, making the body more susceptible to bacterial infections, which is why pneumonia followed. "The pandemic was not Spanish. The first cases of bacterial pneumonia in 1918 trace back to a military base in Fort Riley, Kansas." The term "Spanish Flu" is a misnomer. It was called the "Spanish Flu" because Spain, being neutral during WWI, did not have wartime censorship and was able to report the outbreak early. The pandemic likely began in the United States, possibly in Kansas, but there is no direct link between the origin of the flu and bacterial pneumonia. "From January 21 – June 4, 1918, an experimental bacterial meningitis vaccine cultured in horses by the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research in New York was injected into soldiers at Fort Riley." This is a conspiracy theory with no solid evidence. While there were indeed experimental meningitis vaccines administered to soldiers at Fort Riley, there is no credible scientific evidence that these vaccines caused the Spanish Flu. Vaccines at the time were aimed at preventing bacterial meningitis, not influenza. The idea that these vaccines triggered the Spanish Flu is a misinterpretation of the facts. "During the remainder of 1918, soldiers... spread bacteria at every stop between Kansas and the frontline trenches in France." It is true that the movement of troops during WWI contributed to the rapid spread of disease, including the Spanish Flu. However, the bacteria that spread were often secondary infections (such as pneumococcal bacteria) that followed the initial viral infection. The H1N1 influenza virus was the first cause, and bacterial infections like pneumonia followed as a complication. "One study describes soldiers 'with active infections (who) were aerosolizing the bacteria that colonized their noses and throats, while others... were profoundly susceptible to invasion of and rapid spread through their lungs by their own or others’ colonizing bacteria." This description of bacterial spread is accurate in describing the spread of pneumonia after viral infections like influenza. However, this study does not imply that the flu virus wasn't the cause; it simply explains how bacterial pneumonia spread after the flu weakened people's immune systems. "The 'Spanish Flu' attacked healthy people in their prime. Bacterial pneumonia attacks people in their prime. Flu attacks the young, old and immuno-compromised." It is true that the Spanish Flu disproportionately affected healthy young adults. This unusual pattern was likely due to an overreaction of the immune system, called a cytokine storm, which caused damage to the lungs. Bacterial pneumonia, however, does not specifically target young, healthy people in the way the flu did in 1918. Pneumonia usually affects the very young, elderly, or immunocompromised. The cytokine storm hypothesis explains why healthy young adults were disproportionately affected by the flu, but the claim about bacterial pneumonia being responsible for this is incorrect. "When WWI ended on November 11, 1918, soldiers returned to their home countries and colonial outposts, spreading the killer bacterial pneumonia worldwide." While soldiers did indeed carry the flu virus back home, spreading it worldwide, the primary cause of death was still the H1N1 influenza virus. The pneumonia came as a complication after influenza. Soldiers helped spread the flu virus globally, and while bacterial pneumonia was a major cause of death, it was secondary to the viral infection. "During WWI, the Rockefeller Institute also sent the anti-meningococcic serum to England, France, Belgium, Italy and other countries, helping spread the epidemic worldwide." This is a false connection. The anti-meningococcic serum was not responsible for the Spanish Flu pandemic. It was aimed at bacterial meningitis, which is a different infection altogether. The flu spread rapidly due to human-to-human transmission of the influenza virus, not because of a vaccine or serum.
