Stay safe and well bud and i mean that sincerely. 

I appreciate the sentiment.  As for living in Asia for health benefits, you do have a point.  But I’ve been ill in more than one fully developed country, and life’s a bit too short to forgo this experience.  I don’t even want to think about the consequences of the lab in Wuhan.  I guess it’s a matter of personal comfort. You have yours, and I have mine.  Hope it works out for both of us.  Cheers.

Coronavirus: Thailand is top destination for travellers from Wuhan

‘Bangkok is clearly the major international destination for traffic to and from Wuhan with on average around 545 arrivals each day’ – John Grant, OAG

Simon Calder, Travel Correspondent

 

 

As concern grows about the spread of Wuhan Coronavirus, analysis of flight schedules has shown that the Thai capital, Bangkok, is the top international destination for travellers from the central Chinese city.

What an irony with this headline.....

This is a very serious situation. 547 cases have been confirmed. In China alone! It takes time to check that many people. In the meantime, those people have been interacting with the neighbors, acquaintances, business colleagues etc. They’ve been taking planes, buses, autos, taxis...and touching a lot of things that multiple people handle.  Like a steering wheel, condiments in restaurants, suitcase handles, tray tables and arm rests, and touch screens...  if the virus has mutated, you can double the exponential rate of growth... wear a mask, wash your hands, Carry hand sanitizers, and avoid crowds, if you can. This is no joke. Dismissal of initial warnings turn small outbreaks into epidemics, and epidemics into pandemics. 

Some of these knuckleheads are laughing about this, get serious folks

Too late. The Chinese Pandora's box already opened.

So will any blame fall on the pro-ChiCom regime, including TAT?  They went to great lengths to encourage this massive intermixing...

Symptoms of virus include shortness of breath, coughing, sore throat and fever. Other than fever, I reckon quite a few Thais already experiencing the first 3.

Wonder if some gov agency will announce that high PM2.5 levels protect against the virus?

Why can't we joke about this????????????????

 

If we joke, will we really do something different??  no, of course not.

 

Oh, look, a chinese person!!!  maybe Wuhan!!!!  Run!!!!!!   

 

Oh, it's the end-of-the-world, I must cry until it's over.  ah, no.  

 

We can joke about anything we can't control.  We can't control this and we can't stop it and we can't do anything but read the news.  

 

Let's say you die if you leave your house after 10 p.m.  OK, now that is something we can control and we shouldn't laugh about that.   

[Isaan sailor 1,633]

Let me be totally upfront about this.  I have no proof, no evidence. This is pure conjecture.

• Wuhan quarantined

• Thai Baht finally down (although not nearly enough)

So do we have a correlation here?

 

your conspiracy theorist,

He's looking at forward bookings. Y'know, people who have yet to travel.

 

Wuhan is not a province. It's the capital city of Hebei province.

And the Airport services an estimated 19 Million people

Already reported on Western media in several countries that there have been several confirmed cases in Thailand. A serious concern for tourism in Thailand.

No TAT will do a campaign in Papua New Guinea they have many rich people, lol.
