snoop1130 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Chinese tourists drawn to islands on Andaman Sea By The Nation Many tourists from China have travelled to the Hat Noppharat Thara–Mu Ko Phi Phi National Park in Krabi province for the beautiful scenery of the islands on the Andaman Sea during the high season. Travellers from China have been subjected to screening for coronavirus infection at the ports of entry with most passing the test. Thailand remains a top destination for travellers around the world. However, despite reassurance from the Thai government that it could control spread of the virus in the country, travellers remain skeptical amid constant postings on the issue in social media.

This weak excuse for a government is playing with fire....as compulsive greed and excessive stupidity can be a very dangerous mix.

Popular Post ebean001 Posted January 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2020 in 2018, 80,000 Americans died of the flu. No one knows this. the GOP covered it up because they know their health care for profit kills people. in any case, so far this is not a problem. even those who got it were treated and released. Americans had probably 200 die of the flu yesterday. (Note: 80,000/365 = 219). Where is the news about this? Bad health care in USA caused by the greedy GOP. Poor people have no money for care. That is a major crime against humanity. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a major crime against humanity. Exactly imagine we had live feeds of all the flu deaths moment by moment blow by blow. My gut instinct is this is a really bad case of flu - some anecdotals have said about twice as bad and mortality rates will go from a norm of 1% to 2% affecting the usual high risk categories. Keep calm and strive on with diligence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately they haven't croaked yet, it's a prerequisite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
