MOPH concerned about skin, gastrointestinal diseases at rally sites

BANGKOK, 29 January 2014 (NNT) – The Ministry of Public Health on Tuesday expressed concern over the possibility of protesters contracting skin and gastrointestinal diseases, and made suggestions on personal hygiene at rally sites.


Dr. Phonthep Siriwanarangsan, director-general of the Department of Health, suggested that protesters exercise good hygiene practices in the restrooms and while eating.

He also said they should wear clothes that offer protection against the sun and stay hydrated. He added that sleeping gears and clothes should be cleaned, and a single undergarment should not be worn for days on end without washing, as doing so would promote growth of fungus. If access to water was difficult, rally-goers should carry alcohol gels to keep their hands clean.

Dr. Phonthep also said trash must be collected regularly, and leftover food should be disposed of in trash bags that are then sealed, in order to minimize the risk of contracting diseases from flies.

Well its their own fault, why worry let them catch the worms

In Mongolia we have a proverb:

" Desert flower is Red, Sand is Brown

Dresses up, Trousers down"

The protestors don't need advice about gastrointestinal crap problems of their own. They can deal with that fine. They might, however, need medication, for the crap which is continually being dealt to them; from the bigger toilet, that is!

What hypocrites.......they were accusing the mayor and private firms for providing toilets to the protesters, and they were going to prosecute themwhistling.gif

Yeah, but that was a week or so ago, new thinking now. Something else tomorrow - stay tuned.

I'm surprised no one has tried to blame this on Thaksin. I was anticipating one of those convoluted theories that would insist that the government had infected people and now they were turning into zombies.

Some of those areas smell like sh*t and piss its disgusting and they should be ashamed. They use toilets? The places I saw they just used tarps and pissed on the sidewalk. Parasites getting parasites. Most of the hardcore protesters seem like someone rounded up all the homeless and old people gave them a burlap sad and some choc.

Getting wounded or killed by grenades and gunshots are also not very healthy either. Maybe the Health Ministry should hand out flyers about how to "Duck & Crawl."
