Perhaps it wasn't a family friendly kind of massage? 

 

Or maybe he just wanted a break from the wife and kids.  Even the best husband and father needs an occasional break.

Wandering about Samui after midnight, barefoot, carrying a can of beer, seeking a massage, and later found dead with a bag containing a white substance in his trousers. Doesn't entirely fit the image of a dedicated family man.

What is the standard image of a family man. Is it ,often beats up wife etc on the dark side or on the good side loves his wife and children and works hard?  In short there is no clear definition.

Agreed. Definition difficult, but generally a man does his best to take care of his wife and children.

 

RIP young man..

Not sure why your post got so many laughing emojis.

I did know a lawyer back home who told me a lot of his lawyer friends go to parties and do cocaine.

Being a lawyer is stressful? Or they make so much money they don't know what to do with it ?

Why would it not be a good look for Samui?! Drugs are available almost anywhere in the world. In my book it's not a good look for him, rather than the place he died at...

Funny how if someone gets covid and dies they died "with" covid, but if they got a vaccine years ago that's definitely the cause.

Thailand's image suffers whenever there's some adulteration.  Examples include buckets of booze adulterated with DEET and/or methanol, adulteration of bedding with pesticides, and... and...

 

I suspect the other shoe will drop if tests of the bag's contents reveal something other than coke.   Fentanyl comes to mind, but that's a wild ass guess.

In regards to the adukteration, like with the buckets, I agree, but in regards to regular drugs I have to say no because drugs can be had everywhere in the world and they can be only a problem, if you consume them.

And falling asleep with actual cocaine in your system is just not how that stuff works. 
fentanyl is a likely probability.

 

With a 130,000 baht a night villa, why is he going to a walk in massage shop with grannies??  This is the kind of place all you need can be delivered with a word.

Yeah good point wokey he should  have ordered a masseur to his villa for a full massage.His wife and kids could have watched the whole thing.It would have been a lot dearer but hey he's a lawyer and can afford it.

mRNA vaccines deadly

 

Here’s info I retrieved retrieved via AI into the safety of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, covering everything from global data to rare adverse events and long-term outcomes:

 

1. Mass Safety Surveillance

• In the first six months of the U.S. vaccination program, over 298 million doses administered—mostly mild, short-lived side effects; serious events were extremely rare 
• A cohort of 6.2 million people receiving nearly 12 million doses showed no significant increase in 23 serious health outcomes (like stroke or heart attack) within 21 days post-vaccine 

2. Regulatory Warnings & Myocarditis Data

• The FDA updated labels (June 25, 2025) for Pfizer’s and Moderna’s vaccines, adding myocarditis/pericarditis warnings:
• ~8 cases per million doses overall (ages 6–64),
• ~27 per million in males aged 12–24 
• Global cohort of 99 million finds rare signals for myocarditis/pericarditis, transverse myelitis, and ADEM after mRNA vaccines 

3. Clinical Insights & Long-Term Outcomes

• Systematic reviews confirm myocarditis risk is real but rare, especially in young males, typically mild and resolving 
• French follow-up of 558 myocarditis cases found hospital stays (~4 days), generally short recovery, no major long-term harm 

4. Rare Neurological Events

• Some studies have noted extremely rare associations with Guillain‑Barré syndrome, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis—mostly tied to viral‑vector vaccines, but also flagged post-mRNA 

5. Risk vs Benefit

• Serious vaccine-related adverse events occur in < 0.1% of cases 
• Public health authorities (CDC, FDA, WHO) maintain that benefits far outweigh risks, preventing hospitalizations and saving millions of lives .

6. Misinformation & Political Context

• Political opposition in parts of the U.S. is influencing public perception and funding for mRNA research—despite clear scientific consensus on safety 
• One petition (Hope Accord) alleged higher harm rates, but mainstream health authorities reject these claims, backing mRNA vaccines' safety and efficacy 

✅ Final Assessment
mRNA COVID-19 vaccines are not deadly.

The predominant side effects are temporary and mild.

Rare adverse events (myocarditis, pericarditis, very rarely neurological issues) occur at low rates—usually mild and treatable.

Extensive data from millions of doses and global surveillance support their high safety profile.

If you have specific health concerns or conditions, consult your doctor. But from a population-level, scientific perspective: the vaccines are overwhelmingly safe and lifesaving.

I've a vaxx injured friend with *long covid* undoubtedly, he's taken years off of his life.

 

 

Scientific Reality:

1. Long COVID is caused by COVID-19 infection, not the vaccine

• Multiple peer-reviewed studies confirm that long COVID — persistent fatigue, brain fog, shortness of breath, etc. — is primarily seen after SARS-CoV-2 infection, not from vaccination.

• The risk of developing long COVID is significantly lower in vaccinated individuals compared to unvaccinated (Nature Medicine, 2022).

2. Vaccines reduce long COVID risk

• A large study of over 33 million people in the U.K. showed that people who were vaccinated and then infected had a 41–57% reduced risk of long COVID versus the unvaccinated (BMJ, 2022).

3. Post-vaccine symptoms ≠ long COVID

• Some people experience post-vaccine syndromes (e.g., fatigue, dizziness, joint pain) — but these are:

  • Rare

  • Usually short-term

  • Distinct from virologically confirmed long COVID

• Very few documented cases suggest ongoing symptoms post-vaccine, and causality is hard to prove.

4. Single anecdotes ≠ general truth

• Saying “the vaccine took years off his life” is a subjective interpretation, not a medical diagnosis or epidemiological finding.

• Many people with long COVID recover, even if slowly. It's premature and inaccurate to say his lifespan has been shortened.

---

✅ Bottom Line:

• Vaccines prevent long COVID, they don’t cause it.

• Your friend's symptoms may be real, but attributing them definitively to the vaccine without rigorous diagnosis and exclusion of infection is medically unsound.

• If anything, his symptoms may stem from a missed or asymptomatic COVID-19 infection, not the vaccine.

If he’s suffering, he should seek proper medical evaluation and consider specialist care (e.g., long COVID clinics), but this does not constitute evidence against mRNA vaccines.

Right, except for the wife and every other member of his family and law practice staying there with him.

 

It'd be kinda hard reaching a happy ending & enjoying it when your wife, sister and possibly two young children are sharing the same villa?
