That's refreshing to hear. Have you noticed how so many articles, even if they're legitimate peer reviewed scientific studies are dismissed simply because they appear on what has been deemed to be a dodgy conspiracy theory website. Of course a lot of these dismissers don't realize that because of mainstream media censorship it is only those so-called dodgy websites where you're able to see alternative but legitimate opinion.

I wouldn't worry. it's not Al Jazeera's theory. 😀

This is looking a bit silly now since everyone who lives in Phuket seems to be getting infected.

I'm not arguing with the Thai government's rules. I'm simply discussing the lack of logic behind it. That's what human beings do.

I hope so. I've been here for 25 years already.

I would never dream of suppressing someone else's opinion. I would fight to defend your right to express your opinion whatever that opinion is. The article you posted does not say anything about transmission through a large volume of air outside a window it's only concerned with close proximity within rooms. That's why circulation is important and why institutions like schools are advised to open windows so that particles are not trapped within a confined space.

@Ron *****************

oh For heaven's sake you need to be within a few feet of someone to transmit the virus. How the hell is a virus going out of a window and travelling in the air across the Bangkok skyline and suddenly target someone on the street below. Transmission doesn't work like that. Educate yourself!

@Ron *****************

what? Even prisons have open windows. Where will it end? Are you for real? Maybe if the window is open you might just fly out!

@Ron *****************

it makes no sense. There is no scientific reason to close windows while in quarantine. It's crazy. What's going to happen if the window is open? You cough and transmit viruses into the atmosphere and they drift over the rooftops. Sure the WHO doesn't specifically advise opening the window but it doesn't specifically say you shouldn't cut your toenails while in quarantine either or take a dump before 7am. 🙂

@Richard *******

Not true.
