This afternoon, Bangkok Governor Asawin Kwanmuang signed official order issue number 33 of the orders to temporarily close business and places.

Completely absurd given the gravity and rate of the infections 

One word says it all, sadly.

on june 18th this was in the newdpaper

The Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) on Friday defined Bangkok and the three adjoining provinces of Nonthaburi, Pathum Thani and Samut Prakan as dark red zones of maximum and strict Covid-19 control.

how can the  governor open business. is doublespeak the national language?

just curious

Finally and thank you! Swimming means so much to so many people, especially older people who can not do other forms of exercise. We need to be able to swim in our own pools for health! Looking forward to  getting back in the pool more than ANYTHING else in life!!!

Great to see that you're so happy with this news. Let's hope that feeling spreads. I nearly said 'spreads like a virus', but thought better of it.

It's about time, gyms and pools should NEVER have been closed, especially not if we pretend this is all about "public health". 

 

And no word about this nonsense rule, that people who live, eat and sleep together, must wear a mask when they're driving together in their private car!? Are we also supposed to be afraid of infecting our cars with covid19?

Oy, you! . . . I'm the sceptical one around here, if you don't mind. Understandable reaction to this 'nonsense' though, it must be said.

You could make a difference between swimming pools and other places.
Research showed that pools desinfected with chlorine in the water provide no danger for spreading Covid.

But!! the Thai government doesn't use good senses.  They seem to rule by fears.

Swimming is/was one of my favorite past times and agree totally that they should have stayed open.

Simple case of not using changing rooms or showers and only use the pool (Arrive ready)
