I always liked Kao San Road, even when it mutaded into a cheapo commercial hub for westerners. It's Bangkok's human Zoo. One way to solve all problems related to Hygiene and Boose is to install a Carwash Type Gate at both Ends of the Road and fill it up with 98% pure alcohol. Win-Win Situation. gone are the day's of the smelling Backpacker with fleas in his hair.

After the Gate, relax

Quite benign if one looks at the situation carefully.

Why does the TRUTH hurt sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!!???

Tell lies and everyone thumbs up! Express the true angle of things and you're branded a 'trouble-maker!" God... society has regressed when they buy in to the liars out there!!

Lying and deceiving - it's [among a wrath of other nasty things] what separates us from other life forms. 

Not a pleasant picture.

You're wrong here, express the truth and get silenced.  The narrative doesnt stand up to facts so they simply remove anyone willing to speak them from social media.  The lemmings then cheer this on.  Its a precursor to when the remove those willing to speak up from society all together and the sheople will know exactly how to react to this through their training on social media.

They're going to sanitize the entire Khao San Road? Lol. The absurdities continue... this is just another example of virtue signaling. Allow me to assert, this is not the RIGHT thing to do. 

There is no escaping being exposed to viruses. And we now have enough information to make rational public health decisions with SarsCov2. The more we test, the more "cases" there will be. The virus is endemic, nothing can be done about that. The only thing that can be done is how we act moving forward... Stop mass testing and we solve the "emergency." The numbers are in (not "case" numbers, but actual hospital admissions and deaths)... there is no more need to declare a world-wide pandemic. It's time to truly get back to normal. The "New Normal" needs to be a return to sanity.

Probably one of the greatest tricks in all of this has been to convince us all that you can be sick without having any symptoms. It's time to end this "casedemic" and manage this like we should have from the very beginning...

So cleaning is absurd?

Why do you care if a street gets cleaned?

Why would you be against cleaning, no matter the circumstance

 

There should be more cleaning in this world.........all you have to do is take a look at the dregs that get on an airplane these days looking like they are homeless

 

People are gross, I say douse them all in sanitizer  5555

After one man tested positive for Covid-19 yesterday, 10 of his friends who partied with him on Khao San Road also tested positive in a rapid antigen test. 

is it just me, or does point that there is no alien hint to the point, that this 11 are locals? 

to the tests for Khao San Road, are all the side entrances closed, in Party nights? Impossible, methinks ;-)

Check out any YouTube video of KS Road or Bangla Rd, Phuket NYE and then marvel at this symbolic, but an ultimately useless gesture.
