being conservative in nature, personal responsibility is a core value.

Admirable on a personal level and a wise way to live life.

But the hypocritical ruling elite preaches rugged individualism and personal responsibility for the great unwashed while applying a different standard to the bailed out, too big to fail banks whose CEOs are now receiving record bonuses.

Wearing N-95 masks in home now, will do for the next 10 days but its going to be a miracle if I don't catch it.. probably already had exposure but thankfully being a medical worker I am vaccinated and boosted. Hope that's enough!

That was 1 of the other reasons I didn't want to meet for coffee with covid going around. But hopefully next time its gone and we don't have to worry about it.

Got a persistent deep cough with flem at the moment but negative on covid.

Fuck fuck fuck

Fuck Americans not masking on flights and flight attendants.

3 days later.. the missus is positive.. I'm still negative (for now).

And she has asthma.

You guys surely  are vaccinated? I was at tram the other night after a concert ,bus and subway in rush hour before that, that tram was  so packed couldn’t scratch my nose, (think Tokyo subway where they poke people in with a stick to not waste any space)   complete  strangers an inch away from each other faces . If I was a perv I could’ve fondled the person next to me easily, no one could’ve object . No masks in sight.

Same here.  4 weeks of phlegm/ coughing. Actually everyone in my building too. Some prefers to believe it’s hay fever, some just a cold , I have no idea. I do believe they sell these anti gen tests at supermarkets, but no one cares. Maybe we should, I really don’t know

Dry violent cough that makes me gag and want to choke/ vomit sometimes.

Sweating, Dizziness.. 100+ pulse while sitting.

The Thai Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha has personally ordered relevant law enforcement agencies to crack down on venues violating the current legal closing time for alcohol serving entertainment venues, which is midnight.

Day 4.. still runny nose, cough, and headache/ dizziness.. really sapped all my strength.

Tried to walk up some stairs.. really stressful. Mostly just staying in bed, using phone mostly.

Hope u get back to 100% soon.

Do you think you caught it at the airport or on the plane?

Likely plane.. American airlines were a lot more relaxed about not masking than qatar airways. I should have thrown a tantrum or rescheduled.

When we got to JFK the border control agent only asked us to remove our mask for the photograph and there was a plastic barrier.

The missus got it before me and is ahead of me by 2 days in symptoms so maybe when she went to the galley to get something from the flight attendants? She said they were unmasked.

Day 6 seems to be better.. still occasional cough and flem but nose not congested for the first time. Energy still lacking.

The missus tested Negative yesterday so tomorrow hopefully I do as well.

 

Overall I know I'm protected for a few months with the antibodies but I will mask up again later. Prevention is the best cure and I don't want to catch this again.

Book your flight if you can get a good price. Its insured with travel insurance or credit card anyway. If its cancelled you can get your money back, eventually

It's not so much the flight. I expect that airlines will be putting on more flights from October. BA says they will be resuming flights then, and I have enough Avios to get a return flight relatively cheaply.

It's more the condo. I have an idea of the condo I want to book, but there is a booking deposit of 9,000 Baht which is non refundable.

I hope so. I did go in Jan/Feb this year and had to deal with all the Thai Visa hassle and 1 day quarantine, so hopefully it wouldn't be any worse than that.

But not really worth going if everything is closed down again.

I probably will take the risk with the condo booking.
