RE: Thailand Tourism Minister puts foot in mouth about Coronavirus

in #thailand5 years ago

The funny thing is, I think that is still a common misconception here too. How many times are we told not to go out without a coat on because we will catch a cold. Obviously this guy took it quite a few steps beyond that in a very public forum. It is funny though that even though we all know better, we still hold on to and pass along this misinformation. I guess technically you could maybe get some form of pneumonia, but I am not even sure that is accurate. Meanwhile Vietnam is just sitting over there laughing and keeping their mouths shut. Bring em on, we have plenty of room!

Misinformation travels very fast it seems. That's something consistent all over the world.
