Tony125 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Thaivisa notes that while it is not illegal to be out without a face mask a condition of entry to places like markets is dependent on wearing a mask. Excuse me ThaiVisa is incorrect. In some provinces you must wear a mask in public. Pattaya is one of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying the system is useless but at the same time worrying that its used to track them (how can a system be worthless on one side while work perfectly to track them) Its a rule to wear masks at markets so just do it its not that hard to do. I agree with you that if the owners of shops etc stipulate that condition of entry is to wear a mask, then if you want to go in, wear a mask. However, people are responsible for their own safety, if they are paranoid about this virus, it is up to them to take what ever precautions that make them feel safe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Australia, the current advice from the Federal Government is that the majority of people won't benefit from wearing a surgical mask and if you're well, you don't need one. But they do say that if you are sick or caring for someone that is then you should wear a mask. Question is, how do you know if you have it. One woman was on the ruby princess and was negative and 10:weeks later positive. Authorities say it is highly unlikely she got in that time, but actually had it when negative and its just come out. So if you only need to wear it when sick and you cannot know you are sick then logic indicates you should wear it. They also have other measures and generally people abide by it.

The primary reason for wearing a mask is to make others feel safe, not yourself. Are you suggesting that in order for them to be safe and it being their responsibility, they should come up to you and nail a mask on your face?

Yes, it is the staff's job. Probably wiser to inform the staff and if they don't act report them to their employers. That said, I think Russian's bark is usually bigger than their bite.

Sorry ThaiVisa is wrong. Some Provinces have required that face masks be worn in Public ,Pattaya is one of them. Also stores and markets are private property and can require you to obey certain rules if you wish to enter. More recently, some provincial governors in Thailand have ordered mandatory mask-wearing in public during the outbreak. The governors of Samut Sakhon, Phuket and Chanthaburi ,ChonBuri , Ayutthya– empowered by the Emergency Decree invoked last month by Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha – have ordered people to cover their faces while in public or face a fine of up to Bt20,000. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/1895595/frenchman-caught-without-mask-in-phuket In Bangkok must wear face mask in Skytrain, Subways and Buses or you will not be allowed on. All the 7-11, Big C , Tesco, Macro ,supermarkets ,restaurants ect near me have ordered people to wear masks to enter. Also have scaning code to enter or sign in with name address time in/out phone number. Dr. Birx said there's 'clear scientific evidence' masks help. https://www.yahoo.com/news/dr-birx-said-theres-clear-214422543.html Edited May 26, 2020 by Tony125 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bender Rodriguez Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 did any sick patient, had his blood tested and did they find the COVID19 virus inside the bloodwork or just a usual PCR tested, where the inventor said it should never been used to test for virus, that has to be magnified 48 times to find a FRAGMENT of what they are testing for, not the DNA of Covid19 did they ever take the blood of a covid19 patient, inject it in an animal to see if it got sick ?

EricTh Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Most people won't think they are sick at the initial stages of infection so he needs to be educated. The real problem is buying those surgical masks which is water-proof. I have been searching at a lot of places and they are all not sold. They only have those cloth masks which are useless anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try lazada.com. I use surgical masks. Sometimes they have them and sometimes they don't but I've managed to secure a stash. Two times orders were cancelled with no explanation after waiting for weeks though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
