Not sure but the vaccines came too late for the 46 Thai nationals who died from Covid in the UK in part due to people refusing to wear a mask or socially isolate. As opposed to not a single UK expat or tourist dying in Thailand. The Thais will be vaccinating all the Brits over here. You just have to wait your turn. No queue jumping.

Were those Thai's who died always wearing a mask or socially isolating? Only you're using that as a part reason to others around them being at fault. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Davison needs to get his out out his ass and speak some home truths! Unbelievable meeting Something along the lines of: We invented the stuff, we paid for the research, development and testing of the stuff, we gave you the recipe and rights to make the stuff, the least you can do is make it available to the expatriate Britons who are living here! No, I don't really suppose so... 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wouldn't be from the UK by any chance would you? Cool, no issues in calling this the Chinese plague then. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobMuir Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Just now, sungod said: Cool, no issues in calling this the Chinese plague then. I don't think it could be described as a plague. But it is beyond reasonable doubt that 2019-nCov originated in Wuhan China. A few Chinese tried denying it and were critised rightly for it. As did a few in the UK regarding B117. It isn't really helpful in fighting it when you have deniers more concerned about face and trying to shift blame elsewhere than facing up to the reality of the terrible situation. The UK should have closed their borders when they realised that it was a new highly contagious variant last year. They didn't. And now the vast majority of cases in Thailand are B117, which personally affects my lifestyle, as well as most cases in northern India, the USA and other countries. Thousands are dying daily. It is a real tragedy and getting worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent had/has been receiving a massive influx of illegal immigrants from mainland Europe throughout the pandemic and since long before I have no idea if it is beyond reasonable doubt that a virus that that emerged from China did indeed mutate in England or not but virus' do mutate so it's possible I am very proud of the scientific advances that the UK has made in fighting the global pandemic and I truly believe that they have saved many lives through their endeavour You are correct I am indeed a proud Englishman I forgot how many people died in the UK untill now thanks to denying chief muppet boris.

Popular Post Retiredandhappyhere Posted May 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 8, 2021 A few days ago, I wrote to the British Ambassador to Thailand (Brian Davidson) pointing out the racism involved in Thailand's decision to leave expats to the end of the queue when it comes to vaccinations and requesting him to register a strong protest with the Thai Government and Health authorities. To his credit, he immediately replied, saying that he would be doing so. I assume that this meeting was his opportunity to raise the matter. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
