Are you able to see bacteria or viruses?  Of course not!  So wearing a decent mask when close to others seems a good idea to me.  You never know what nasty things they are breathing/coughing out...

 

Alternatively, don't wear a mask when in crowds, and don't complain if you get Covid/flu/polio (unlikely!) or Chlamydia pneumoniae STI....

Lol I definitely won't complain. I got the flu in Jan and just rested for a few days like a normal person. That's life. Wearing a mask your whole life is just cowardice. If you want to be healthy, then eat well, exercise regularly, and get good sleep. I do all those things, wearing a mask is just lunacy and sucks the joy out of life. That's why only wimps and losers wear them. Walking around shopping malls in masks looking like a depressed dog is a pitiful existence. Do that in most countries and people will think you're weird, but sadly in Thailand mental illness has been normalised.

, let's discuss about the possible hoax of covid.

What are the risks of the COVID vaccine?

Covid is about as much a hoax as any other respiratory disease.

There is a risk from any medical intervention, only an individual can assess the risk as far as they are concerned.

 

It is out of order to try and influence people into what could be a wrong decision just to pursue your own agenda.

Nothing says welcome to my country like putting a mask on every time a foreigner comes near. This is why I said Thailand has lost its charm. And this is why fewer foreigners are returning for tourism. No sane person wants to be in this environment.

What a self centred perspective, may come as a surprise but Thai airports do have departing flights.

There is much research by experts professors , heart specialists , scientists etc that have said that the vaccines and vaccinations are causing injury and death and that the vaccines are just about big pharmaceutical companies making huge profits which bill gates and multi millionaires own shares in , let's discuss about the possible hoax of covid.

What are the risks of the COVID vaccine?

 

 

Severe allergic reactions following vaccination are rare but can be life threatening. Signs and symptoms of a severe allergic reaction can include: Anaphylaxis, a life-threatening reaction that needs to be treated with epinephrine (EpiPen) and that may require hospitalization.31 Jan 2025

not sure myself, I did contract it (after two shots) but then only had a sore throat mild one at that for 2 days as did my much younger daughter but wife had to spend 5 days in the hospital.  daughter and I had phizers while wife had moderna.  Now I note since jan 1 this year, 108K checked in at hospitals or doctors reported with 27 deaths - more older ones than young ones reported.

Why is this misinformation perpetuated so much?  Even supposed forum health experts have claimed this.  I find it mind boggling.
 

No. No they didn’t. Period.

 

Thais rarely wore masks unless it was a woman who had a recent chin/nose job.

Well this is dated June 2018  and there was no reason for anyone to wear a mask then .\

I already said it was December 2019 and they were NOT Thais but visiting HK Chinese  mostly.

I am no mask lover but perhaps i should start  since  non masking seems to have such a strange
effect on people's logic and thought .

To the member whose heart I broke… I never wanted it to be this way and I hope we can stay friends.

 

 

is covid a hoax.... "do bears $hit in the woods..."

 

If Biden, his useless comical party of failure has anything to do with covid, it is of course a full on hoax. All things Biden and his cabal of moronic and failed dems is all about failing and will continue to fail while being exposed as I write this. Hey Biden, bring on the next hoax. MAGA is all about WINNING.

 

 

Just one of many hoaxes perpetrated by feckless desperate liberal losers and gobbled up and inhaled by the woke brainwashed liberal sheep (many with 6, 7, even 8 covid boosters) on the left. MAGA folk where threatened with jail for challenging the covid hoax narratives and mandates.

 

“That’s not just a statistical anomaly -- it’s a statistical impossibility. From an estimated 48 million cases in 2019–2020, the flu dropped to 2000 cases, statistically zero, in 2020–2021, amounting to a 99.999998% decrease -- or put another way, a nearly 10 million percent drop. In the realm of infectious disease, that kind of disappearance doesn’t happen without a force far greater than a virus. In this case, that force may have been government incentives, diagnostic bias, and political opportunity.”

hoax, just like the impotent moron Biden and his plan to wreck America, that is until Trump spanked him and kicked his teeth in along with the west coast willy oral queen doofus calling herself kamala. dumb as all democrats and laughed at by the MAGA phenominals! Lunatics alert, let's hear from the Biden like pedos who take showers with their daughter.

It's rather obvious it was not a hoax if you simply look at the total number of deaths from all causes during that time.  

 

In the US, for example, between March of 2020 and March of 2022, there were more than one million more deaths than expected compared to previous years.  Something very bad obviously happened during that time.  Either people died of covid, or they died of boredom because they were stuck at home watching Netflix. 

 

Note also that the excess deaths nearly stop after vaccines became widely available.

Dr Gerry BRADY comes to a completely different conclusion than what you wrote. 

 

...

There was no discernible “Pandemic of Death” in 2020 caused by the Covid virus and only one chart is necessary to reveal that. It is the Euromomo chart for Deaths from All Causes compiled week by week and published weekly from the death data of 27 nations in Europe.

A short, sharp spike in All Cause death numbers did occur in the early months of 2020 but it was not extraordinary in size or volume. In fact, it was not dissimilar to what happens every winter with seasonal Influenza outbreaks. Seasonal Peaks of All Cause Death occur every winter and have done for decades.

 

EUROMOMO CHART — DEATHS FROM ALL CAUSES IN ALL AGES

The chart clearly shows that by May of 2020, the death numbers had collapsed back into the normal range. So, by then, anyone watching the published numbers knew that there was no “horrible, rapidly infectious, fearful” pandemic virus killing extraordinary numbers of people everywhere and anywhere.

The weekly published numbers from Euromomo revealed the ugly truth. We were being lied to by almost all governments worldwide. There was no Pandemic of Death. And they continued to lie for the next 3 years, promulgating the argument that massive excess deaths were continuing to occur globally and that drastic measures were required to “contain” the “deadly” virus.

Those governments then proceeded to offer only one “solution” – an injectable product, inadequately researched, containing synthetic genetic material (RNA) that was constructed in a laboratory and designed to hijack the body’s protein manufacturing mechanisms. And that product had never been manufactured previously in large volumes globally or trialled on large numbers of people.

The rest is now history. Some reputable estimates of death from these products are between 15 – 30 Million globally (and still counting). And reputable estimates of serious adverse events are somewhere in the range of 20 times that number – possibly 600 Million people – HALF A BILLION injured and suffering serious ill effects.

Masks are for cowards and the mentally ill. I was fine with masks for a couple of years, but anyone who wears one now is a complete coward. Simple as that.

Congratulations, that's a first. 

Never before did I came across a poster using the argument that when many people don't agree with you that this means that you are wrong.
