Crime Illegal Clinics Busted Unqualified Staff Caught Doing Procedures
Pictures courtesy of Naewna Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) police, working with the Pathum Thani Provincial Public Health Office, have shut down two clinics involved in illegal cosmetic and genital surgery, including unsafe penis enlargement and circumcision procedures. Two unlicensed practitioners were arrested. The raids, followed public complaints that clinics were offering medical procedures without proper licences, with treatments performed by people who were not qualified doctors. One clinic had openly advertised on social media, claiming to have expert surgeons for penis enlargement and circumcision. First raid: At a clinic on Rangsit-Nakhon Nayok Road in Thanyaburi district, officers found Mr Kenzo 28, performing a procedure on a customer. The clinic had no licence to operate and was in an extremely unhygienic state. Used and unused medical tools were stored together on the floor and in the kitchen, while used syringes were found in cupboards with no separation of infectious waste. Police seized 30 types of medicine and 625 medical tools. Mr Kenzo admitted he had only completed a nurse assistant course and had been working there for three to four months, earning 27,000 baht per month. He said a doctor only attended occasionally and he would carry out procedures himself when no doctor was present. Second raid: At another clinic in the same area, officers found Ms Ariya 37, injecting a client with vitamins. Although the clinic was licensed, there was no doctor on site. Ms Ariya admitted she had only a vocational certificate, no medical licence and had been working there for about a year. Police seized 13 types of medicine, including unregistered drugs. Authorities warned that allowing unqualified individuals to perform medical treatments breaches Thailand’s Healthcare Facility Act and can result in up to two years in prison, fines of up to 40,000 baht and the closure or revocation of a clinic’s licence. Additional offences include operating an unlicensed medical facility, practising medicine without a licence and selling unregistered drugs, each carrying further prison terms and fines. Health officials urged clinic operators to comply with the law and warned that “fake doctors” and illegal clinics will be targeted in ongoing enforcement operations. The public is encouraged to report suspicious facilities via the Department of Health Service Support hotline (1426) or the Consumer Protection Police Division hotline (1135).

Tourism Thailand Losing Tourist Edge to Vietnam and South Korea
Who, who, is not coming to Thailand because of the border conflict? This just sounds more like deflecting the real problem with low tourist arrivals, it's because they are going somewhere else for reasons that are not new. The same old problems. -

I'm considering taking Metformin for off label reasons
If you suspect you might have pre-diabetes, get an HbA1c blood test to confirm / rule it out. If you are pre-diabetic, adjusting your diet and lifestyle can reverse it. That's preferable to taking any pills or potions. If you're considering Metformin, you might like to take a look at Berberine. It's a herb that has many benefits, some of which have been compared to Metformin. There's a lot of good stuff online, including on YouTube. Google "Berberine or Metformin for pre-diabetes" or similar searches and you'll find heaps of info out there. Some doctors and practitioners recommend Berberine over Metformin for blood sugar control. Personally, I avoid pharmaceuticals. If I had a medical condition, I'd always look to natural products, like Berberine, first. But the best thing to do is to make lifestyle and dietary adjustments to address the root cause. -
