Bowin, Chonburi is rural ?

 

My comment was in general and specifically refers to rural healthcare.

BoWin, may not be rural, but is a small town of 40,000. The treatment was adminstered in a " private clinic" which was most likely a small office with very limited facilities and staffing.  The "hospital" that serves BoWin  is not full service and would be considered a clinic in countries with  full access healthcare.  Tell you what, have a catastrophic event like a heart attack or a car crash and see if you survive with local treatment. At least in Pattaya, there are some trauma units  in the hospitals that can respond appropriately.

So seems that in Thailand,  the doctor, the remedy are worse then the ailment.

Why?

The flu shots rarely contain the correct version of whatever virus is going around because they have to guess and prepare the concoction before flu season. Those shots are full of nasty adjuvants that are bad for human health.  Search 'vaccine adjuvants' and decide whether you'd want that crap injected into your child's bloodstream. 

No different to the flu jabs we all have as a family. Your comment is doing a lot of assuming as you have no idea what actual jab he had or what is in it. 

Millions of children worldwide and adults cannot be wrong receiving flu jabs.

Actually, they can. There's some kind of fallacy or razor that describes your line of reasoning but I'm too lazy to look it up. Read up on how flu vaccines are developed and you'll see that I'm correct.

Soo many gullibile idiots believe so much of their quackery on the internet and they look so impressive with their stethoscopes around their collars.  

Almost like the Alovera claims years ago ... "Comsume it and you'll never have another flat tyre and your mother in law will always be nice to you."  😀. 

 Just joking, but pity the poor 3yo kid hey. What else is out there?

Lets look at the big picture here, first, when you first visit a new GP in Thailand, what would expect them to say after you have told them your problem. How about, "have you had any history of this before or any of your family"? Never been asked.

"What medicine or supplements  do you currently take"? Never was asked.

What professional medical doctor gives you unmarked drugs in a plastic bag and doesn't tell you what they are and what they do. They treat you and Thais like mushrooms. 

There are very few real specialist's in Thailand they are mainly GP's that have gone and attended a few weeks of training at a private hospital.

The incident has led to legal action, public outcry, and compelled the clinic's closure.

 

So much for Thailand to become a medical hub.

I doubt medical tourists go to a clinic in Bowin.

Just nasty.

Hope the little boy recovers quickly.

The "doctors do circulate"  move around different hospitals, sometimes they end up in Bowin.
