Popular Post webfact Posted April 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 6, 2020 Chiang Mai villagers go to war against virus By The Nation A Chiang Mai province subdistrict has taken the fight against Covid-19 virus into its own hands by locking down residents and setting up checkpoints to screen people entering the area. Home to around 10,000 people, Khilek in Mae Taeng district has also gathered funds to buy materials for making face shields, disinfectants and other medical supplies to protect the community. Anan Siriphakphokhin, Khilek’s headman, said residents were worried about the worsening Covid-19 outbreak. “In Khilek subdistrict alone, about 30 returnees from risky areas are reportedly in self-quarantine after being laid off,” he said. “Therefore, community leaders, the Chiang Mai Provincial Administrative Organisation, Local Administrative Organisations, and the hospital in neighbouring Ban Ram Poeng decided to lockdown the community and set up screening.” Volunteers at each checkpoint are taking the body temperature and travel histories of people entering, as well as handing them surgical masks, face shields, and hand wash gels. “Meanwhile, another group of volunteers are spraying disinfectant around homes, temples, markets and other public areas to prevent the spread of Covid-19 virus,” he said. He added that many villages have established funds to buy materials to make face shields, disinfectants and other medical supplies, boosting the stocks received from local authorities.

Popular Post Almer Posted April 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 7, 2020 Well done all up in that part of Los, you should be proud and hope people acknowledge your efforts, i doubt there will be many curfew breakers around there. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forza2002 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) Why don't the villagers all get together and do something about all the fires. The burning is more detrimental to their families health than CV19... String up the arsonists or give them a good hiding. Put them in the stocks and shame the vermin scum that they are. Paltry fines are a complete waste of time... Come on Prayut, step up to the plate... Edited April 7, 2020 by Forza2002 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Logosone Posted April 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 7, 2020 They did this in my village too, they drive around in a pick up truck and spray disinfectant on the roads. No harm, but probably more for their psychological benefit. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends if the disinfectant is a germicide i.e. no effect on viruses or anti-viral - e.g bleach or other 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logosone Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Interesting. But why spray roads anyway, the odds that the virus is on the road have to be somewhat low to none. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Venom Posted April 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 7, 2020 It's a pity they are too afraid to "go to war" against the polluters that are destroying the quality of life of literally millions of innocent families in favor of multinational sino-thai agro corporations profits. ???? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mulambana Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) They should be look out for Tom (truck driver), Dick (brick layer) and Harry (plumber). These trio are very arrogant and they also afflicted with Dunning-Krugger syndrome as evidenced from their own countries' devastation and causing a World wide pandeminc.
