From The Thaiger 'Anti-Covid-19' nasal spray will be available later this year A new “anti-Covid-19” nasal spray is being developed by Thai scientists and the medication, which is said to prevent a coronavirus infection, is expected to be available to the public later this year. In studies using lab animals, the nasal spray has been shown to block the virus from entering the body. The Health Systems Research Institute, Silpakorn University, Chulalongkorn University, the Government Pharmaceutical Organisation and an unnamed private bioscience organisation are working together to produce the spray. The spray is expected to be ready to buy in the third quarter of this year, according to the the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine at Chulalongkorn University.

Ok, I'm know I'm late with this report, but as Blanche said in an episode of THE GOLDEN GIRLS, "Better late than pregnant." LOL So I bought tickets for my husband and I for this trip during jetblues BLACK FRIDAY sale. The tickets were so cheap from ft Lauderdale to Santo Domingo that we couldn't pass it up. Now I bought the tickets knowing we would be there for their day of independence, but I didn't know it was Carnival as well. Ppl always hate on spirit airlines but I love them. I have their credit card for the points benefits and it helps tremendously when buying tickets with spirit. It's actually the only card I use because we fly their airline so often. My experience with jetblue left a lot to be desired. When we arrived at SDQ we had to sit on the tarmac for 30 minutes. We also had to deplane and board a bus to take us to the airports entrance. It was a mess. Also you pay extra for the big seats in the front row and they are not the most comfortable. For me. Spirit is my airline of choice to get to the DR. Ok, so we arrive and the minute I turn my phone on its buzzing non stop. It's the DR Guys wanting to come over for MONEY and sex. Before I left Miami I had a schedule of who I would see and at what times they would come to the apartment. For the most part that we t well, but sometime a guy would be about 20 minutes late which was awkward because the other guy would be there waiting with me and we'd have nothing to talk about because we don't speak the same language. As I mentioned before, I've started making videos at the suggestion of someone in this group. The videos, SURPRISINGLY have garnered lots of views, popularity and 19,000 followers on Twitter. Shyt is CRAZY! SO now I'm recording, I've had to learn how to edit and post videos to my Twitter and onlyfans. It's always been a fantasy of mine to do porn, but never would I have imagined filming. I don't know how the guys stand and film the porn. Omg! It's so difficult because I want to be immersed in the action as well. It is so difficult for me to record, see what's happening right before my eyes and not be physically engaged. Whoever in this group told me to start a Twitter and onlyfans page, THANK YOU. It has been overwhelming trying to keep up with responding to the followers. Keeping up with all 3 pages and the amount of hot Dominicans who are hitting me up to be in the videos. Yes guys! I get daily texts from guys in the DR who beg to be in my next video. I show my husband the messages and he can't believe it either. What's even more crazy is the guys don't want money for sex. They either like one of the guys in the video, have a fantasy about being in porn or simply want me to tag them in my video to help boost their Twitter following . Again, this was another special trip to the DR. it was very hot and ruined a little. This is why you should always let manny help find your guys. My hubby and i were eating at EL CONDE. one of mannys guys saw us and tried to sit down. I told him no we wanted to alone. The guy is very sexy but I already had a line up of guys that manny scheduled for me, but I texted him and told him it was OK for him to come to the apartment because he kept texting and asking. He kept telling me a price of $70. I told him I wasn't paying that and gave him my price. We went back and forth and then I finally told him NEVERMIND and to have a good weekend. In my mind I knew he wasn't going to pass up the offer to make money. Plus I didn't want sex. I just wanted to record a jack off video with him. It's posted to my twitter/onlyfans account. He agreed to my price and what I wanted him to do. I confirmed 3 times that he understood and he said he did. He comes over, males the video, then begins to raise his voice about the pay we had agreed about. I began to raise my voice and told him to GET OUT! GET OUT NOW! My husband comes from out the room and tells him to leave and begins to pick up his stuff to put it outside. I grab the phone and call manny via video chat. I don't know what manny said to him, but he quickly got his shyt and got TF Out. I couldn't believe the guys was acting like that after we agreed on a price and plus we knew him. This is a guy who I bought a phone and groceries for last year. I was in total disbelief by his behavior. Be careful when hiring these guys off the street. Especially when you are alone. Go through manny or get a place with security or take a picture of their identification and tell them you are sending their information to a friend who is a cop. Just do it for your safety. This new sexy guy we met is a beauty when we finished having sex he kept going back in the bedroom where my bag was. Mind you, we were done with sex and his clothes were in the living room. I told my husband he was going to try to steal something because everything he owned and needed was in the living room, but my bag was in the middle of the floor in the bedroom and he kept going by my bag doing push up. Be mindful of your belongings at all times. I've seen a few ppl complain about manny but he provides more than just hot guys for sex. He's like your bodyguard, translator, travel guide and protector. The reason he doesn't like sending pics or giving the guys numbers out if because so many ppl on this site have BS him in the past with fibs of them being there or going over there. He even rented out a space because someone told him that they were coming to have a big party and needed a VIP suite in the club. That person never showed up and only wanted numbers to some of the guys. Some guys have also texted me and told me they were there with manny so I immediately texted manny and he didn't know what TF I was talking about. Manny and I were laughing as the guy was telling me how they were hanging out together. That has happened twice so that why he's not so forthcoming with information anymore. We will be back over there in 4 weeks for some more fun and fukcing. I will upload a partial video now. You can view all the other on Twitter. If I have misspelled words in this post, pls forgive me. I'm not wearing my glasses. Take care and be safe everyone. InShot_20220301_202506839.mp4

From The Thaiger Tourism industry pushes for scrapping of Thailand Pass and PCR testing Key figures in Thailand’s tourism industry have renewed their calls for the Thailand Pass and PCR testing on arrival to be scrapped. Speaking at the Thailand Tourism Forum in Bangkok yesterday, the chairman of global hotel operator Minor International, renewed his call for the government to ditch the Thailand Pass system. Bill Heinecke has been vocal on issues affecting tourism’s recovery for some time, penning an open letter to PM Prayut Chan-o-cha at the start of the year, urging him to reinstate the suspended Test & Go entry scheme. Addressing forum attendees yesterday, Heinecke said the government must now lift all restrictions on international visitors immediately if Thailand is to remain competitive. Thailand was the first country in the region to re-open its borders but the near-total lifting of restrictions in other countries now means it’s lagging behind. Neighbouring Cambodia has completely opened up, as have the Philippines, the Middle East, many European countries, and the UK and US. Heinecke has warned that the government’s aim of attracting 10 million tourists this year is in jeopardy if the current rules remain. Instead, Thailand risks only seeing 10% of pre-pandemic numbers, or around 4 million. Despite a recently agreed travel bubble between India and Thailand, Heinecke points out that there are still no flights between the 2 countries. Adding to the existing challenges is Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which Heinecke says has led to cancellations from all over the world. The president of the Thai Hotels Association also expressed her concern for the industry if the current requirement for PCR testing on arrival remains. Marisa Sukosol Nunbhakdi says the number of infected international arrivals is negligible when compared to cases of community transmission. She says if the government really is serious about encouraging its citizens to live with the virus, which it plans to declare endemic by June, it needs to abolish the Test & Go entry scheme and allow people to arrive with proof of vaccination and a pre-departure negative PCR test result. ============================== From Richardbarrow.com The infection rate of all travellers entering Thailand November: 0.13% December: 0.45% January: 3.73% February: 2.25% March: 1.43% · Test & Go: 0.92% · Sandbox: 4.50% · Quarantine: 2.11% ========================================= The Ministry of Public Health’s permanent secretary said 95% of cases are now either asymptomatic or mild, meaning there is no need for most people who are infected to receive medical treatment at hospitals

Russian soldiers captured after being found hiding in basement by Ukraine LGBT+ activists March 1, 2022 Viktor Pylypenko, an LGBT+ activist in Ukraine. (Facebook/ Valeriya Venceremos) Members of an LGBT+ organisation in Ukraine captured a group of Russian soldiers they found hiding in their offices. Viktor Pylypenko told Israeli newspaper The Israel Hayom that he and his group had the soldiers in their office basement in the city of Kharkiv. Pylypenko is an LGBT+ activist and veteran who, after fighting in the Maidan Revolution, formed an organisation to support queer veterans in Ukraine and fight for LGBT+ rights. Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine last week, he has rejoined the army to fight for his country’s freedom. After finding the soldiers, Pylypenko said, he and his fellow activists beat them and took them captive. He added: “This is our war, the Ukrainians, but we have also been fighting as LGBTQ people… We are confronting a tyrannical, homophobic enemy.” Pylypenko and his colleagues are not alone – across Ukraine, LGBT+ people have been preparing for combat. Veronika Limina, who works for an NGO promoting equal rights for LGBT+ people in the military, recently told The Daily Beast that she had been training up queer folk, teaching them basic combat and paramedic skills. “I am angry… We will kill Putin,” she said. Like Pylypenko, many in the queer community are not only fighting for their country, but also to preserve the few LGBT+ rights they have in Ukraine. Same-sex marriage is illegal in Ukraine, as is joint adoption by same-sex couples, and being trans is still classified as an illness. But recent years have seen gradual progress, with the county passing laws to make it easier for trans folk to transition, and to protect LGBT+ people from workplace discrimination. These rights could disappear at the hands of the viciously anti-LGBT+ Putin. Andrii Kravchuk, who works at LGBT+ human rights organisation Nash Svit Center, said that they were fighting against “total lawlessness and repressions”, adding: “Now we have only two options: either we defend our country, and it will become a part of the free world, or there will not be any freedom for us and will not be Ukraine at all.” https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2022/03/01/ukraine-lgbt-activists-russia-soldiers/

Commentary from Channel News Asia LONDON: Hong Kong’s airport has been a spooky place through much of the pandemic as traveller numbers have dwindled, leaving cavernous arrival halls devoid of their usual bustle. The rest of the world is now opening up to international travel but in Hong Kong, which has some of the toughest COVID-19 quarantines in the world, the airport remains largely empty of incoming passengers. The city has for many years claimed the title of the busiest airport in Asia and is set up as a vital air bridge to the rest of the Asia Pacific for those coming from Europe, and a passage for business travellers into south China, the country’s economic nucleus. But last Tuesday, when leader Carrie Lam said that the ban on flights from nine countries would stay until at least April 20, a now-unremarkable trickle of 229 passengers arrived, down from the typical tens of thousands daily before the pandemic. IS HONG KONG STILL FINANCIALLY ATTRACTIVE? The local government says that the isolation is necessary as it races to control an Omicron outbreak and keep the city in line with Beijing’s zero-COVID policy, but airline bosses in Asia said that the measures are not only having a disastrous impact on business. “A lot of airlines are thinking very hard about the future for Hong Kong — do we still need to fly to Hong Kong?” a North American airline executive said, adding that it was becoming “career suicide” to continue to advocate their head office for flights to be sent to the Asian financial hub. “I’m quite worried Singapore will replace Hong Kong not just as a financial centre but also as an aviation centre,” the executive said, pointing to Singapore Airlines’ move late last year to add new routes, including to Vancouver and Seattle. Singapore’s Changi Airport and Seoul’s Incheon International Airport have overtaken Hong Kong in terms of traffic, and many airlines, including Lufthansa, British Airways and Air France, have paused direct flights to Hong Kong altogether. The situation could worsen because of the war in Ukraine. Finnair said, over the weekend, that it could be economically unviable to continue to fly to Asia.

If you put sabaidee spa on internet, and get their official website, it indeed comes up as in Italy, Falconara! Very odd.

I'm pretty sure people of Ukraine feel very sorry for suffering of all those Californians who can't go to India now or if they do they need to take refueling stop in some Osaka or Taipei

True, no one will be disappointed, the falls are beautiful anyways. However, the picture above shows significantly less water than all the times I have been around.

The mention of plans for a new Muay Thai camp makes me wonder. What's an ambassador's nterest in this? An urgently needed new channel for money flow, illicit or otherwise?

It's not just the devaluation of the rouble, many are finding that their credit cards aren't working anymore. It's one thing to have to postpone/cancel a trip to Thailand for its warmth, it's another thing for those Russian tourists already in Thailand who may be having trouble with their credit cards.

From The Thaiger Hoteliers asked to issue refunds to Test & Go travellers for Day 5 packages With the government scrapping the Day 5 requirements for Test & Go travellers, more than 2,000 hotels and their partner hospitals or test centres are being asked to refund the costs of a night stay with Covid-19 RT-PCR testing. Under the revised entry requirements, travellers can take a self-administered antigen test instead of a PCR test on the fifth day of their stay and they are no longer required to book a stay at an approved hotel while they wait for the results. The hotels are being asked to voluntarily refund the cost of the room, or at least convert the pre-paid booking into credits. Hoteliers are also being asked to work with their partner hospitals and testing centres to refund the 2,000 baht for a PCR test. The Thai government has said they will not require hoteliers to issue refunds for the Test & Go packages, but an official from the Tourism Authority of Thailand argues that some hoteliers have said they need a legal order from the government as their cancellation policies do not cover the refund. If a full refund isn’t possible, they will be asked to convert the payments into credits, according to TAT’s deputy governor for marketing communications, Siripakorn Cheawsamoot. “The Tourism and Sports Ministry will issue an announcement asking cooperation from hotels to refund the fifth day expense to their guests. This rule is definitely not mandatory. Hotels are encouraged to manage those bookings according to their own cancellation policy. If refund is not possible, they should consider converting payments into credits or vouchers for in-house services or restaurants.”

Thailand has two seasons! 1. Hot and Dry. 2. Hot and Wet.

If so we can be perfect companionship no competition between us when hunting boys together. lol.
