Made my day ?

Made my week, Som Nam Na A Nut In, how many doses of vaccine have you had and still you can get Covid. 555

Maybe after he gets over it quickly and with minimal fuss, he'll realise it's time for Thailand to fear the virus a lot less and move on, like most of the world has already done.

 

[Fanta]

I thought he would  have known better than to go anywhere near those dirty farangs.

Obviously not fully vaccinated.

[Ramanathan.P]

Looks like 7th booster dose is needed to build up the immune system

[JJJ]

Timeline seems a bit suspicious though. He returned on 20 June. Isn’t today 28th June? 

[HolyCowCm]

Let's hope it doesn't decide to mutate in him and it's named BS -0 A-Wipe. But let's hope all is ok as he plays doctor and takes care of himself.

You’re right. I missed that paragraph. 

But now that I’m re-reading it, it appears he travelled back to Thailand while he was sick. And if he tested positive when he got back by ATK he had probably been sick for a couple days already. 

So now we know who brought the new variants in. 

[JJJ]

Oh the explanation in BP is so rich:

”He believed he caught the virus during the trip as he had met many people who were not wearing face masks. While making speeches and chairing meetings he also had to take off his mask”

Oh yes he HAD to take off his mask Presumably he ate dinner with his mask on though.

What is the average dosage of Covid vaccinations in Thailand 6 appears very high. 

[Havana]

So along comes his personal Physician who prescribes plenty of mango ice cream, a big bar of chocolate, a wife or 2 and a long lie down.

[harry1]

had his sixth cocktail of  jabs ?   while millions are still waiting

[Cg66]

So if he got off a plane he would be waived straight through with no testing, yet a unvaccinated person would have to do a test. This exposes the lunacy of the measures still implemented.

A  few of those don't really qualify as they were the Chinese garbage which is useless as ZJP is finally realizing in China.
