milesinnz Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 16 hours ago, 4MyEgo said: I give it a month and everything will be almost back to normal, the panic served it's purpose and the rich just became richer, make of that what you will. Yes fear creates panic, but what is the panic about, nothing more than another strain of influenza which kills 500,000 plus people a year worldwide, but we don't hear of that, do we. If your old, 80+ and have a weak immune system, or have a pre-existing respiratory condition or diabetes, I would be worried to go out until a vaccination is made, as for the rest of us, soldier on as tomorrow you could get bitten with a mosquito and get Malaria which kills around a million, yes a million people a year, or if you get influenza it kills 500,000 + a year, road deaths 1.25 million a year. Now do you feel better ? As far as I am aware, Cornoavirus is not just another strain of the flu, it is a different virus... as for giving it a month and thinking everything will be back to normal, you are clearly choosing to ignore the economic consequences, and the time/effect of the virus spreading in Thailand and other SE Asian countries. Now when you say the flu kills 500,000 people every year, does that make it ok ?... and if there had been an opportunity to have stopped it would you be saying "it will only kill 500,000 a year, don't bother trying to stop it"... As regards fear creating panic, true, but ignorance creates fear that then creates panic and you are doing very little to alleviate the ignorance. As regards this being a device to just make the rich richer, I am not sure where your logic stands on that.. as the stock markets have gone into a tail spin, then I guess you as one of the rich, can pile in and ride the next wave up and become even richer.. nothing stopping you... and then being the wonderful sort of chap you are, you could donate some of the extra millions you have just made....

Pancho Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Is this affecting any specific race?. example, Fact: Sickle cell anemia specifically effects the black ( African ) race. start asking the hard questions. Is this a weapon? If so, who are the actors? Is China culling it’s population as part of its deal? Is it willing to destroy its ( and the worlds ) ecosystem for money? Is it possible the LOS is a willing participant? What is the end, and by what means is it justified? unconfirmed: o2 (oxygen) is the cure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is that all studies with a decent sample size comes from China. High percentage of Chinese men smoke vs women. Now they think smoking is not a major risk as much as the fact that these men keep touching their mouth and hand.

And they won’t test you unless you’ve been China/japan/Korea. Defies all logic, it’s all about money again, but it’ll be Thailand’s downfall unfortunately, as they’ll lose way more when the economy collapses. Korea is testing about 50,000 per day.

Sevenbells Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) On Saturday 29 February, a police vehicle chaperoned another pick-up spraying some chemical all along Soi 6 in Pattaya. The few bargirls and managers came out and recorded this unusual behaviour on their phones. The extraordinary event is showing on youtube. Search "Soi 6 spraying for virus" to locate and view it. Was any other street in Pattaya sprayed like this? Or any street in Thailand? If the police were involved, then it was an official act but not publicised anywhere. What was the spray and how is spraying it in the air going to defeat a virus? Why Soi 6 and nowhere else? Strange one,this.

DannyCarlton Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Just now, Sevenbells said: On Soi 6? No, that's not it. Why? Don't you think that they get mossies on Soi 6? Bit of a plague of them at the moment in Pattaya, which is why my street has been done twice. Probably at the request of the bar owners due to customer complaints. Most of the bars on that Soi are open bars. Nothing worse than being sat in a bar being eaten alive by mossies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orchidfan Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 I don't understand where the mainland Chinese tourists are coming from (to Thailand) ?? My Chinese friends (engineers etc.) living in large cities in mid, east and SE China, are NOT PERMITTED to travel. 2 of them want urgently to come to Thailand for buzzing meetings....but are "locked down" (btw not in or near Hubei province). Separate observations ; Thais do not hug and kiss, and rarely hold hands. So probably a good thing culturally. Italians sure do. Mamma Mia! Secondly, Chinese men smoking.....yes lots do. But if you observe their style of holding and smoking a cigarette (dear Watson), fingers and mouth do not or rarely, touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now do you feel better ? Which country are you referring to? With the minimum incubation period of 1/2 a month, still not fully understood, and currently unknown sources of spread in the UK, US, Iran, Italy, Thailand, S. Korea, to name only a few, I assume for those countries you're advocating a national lockdown? No? So how will the current unknown sources be found and quarantined in a month - unless each "spreader" is found within the next 15 days? Are you denying that the coronavirus numbers are currently growing in those places? China is the only example of a slowing down in daily statistics. It's on lockdown. So I guess you are advocating that. Even Thailand - which you must be referring to primarily I guess - will statistically need all unknown spreaders off the streets. Then there's possibility of further imported cases. Your prognosis looks hopeful - at best. Edited March 2, 2020 by Arthur Mullard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
