Ch3 news was showing some vision of a policeman applying CPR. If this person lived it was not due to the CPR which was done completely incorrectly. I'm glad the officer tried, and we have good samaritan laws here to give people confidence to help.

But, how is it that a policemen has not been trained properly in CPR?

Indonesia is moving its capital to Kalimantan island. And now,

"#Thailand may have to consider relocating its capital #Bangkok because of rising sea levels.

Bangkok’s city government is exploring measures that include building dikes, along the lines of those used in the Netherlands, he said.

But “we’ve been thinking about moving”, Pavich said, noting that the discussions were still hypothetical and the issue was “very complex”."

"Amnesty International expresses its deepest condolences following the death of Netiporn ‘Bung’ Sanesangkhom, who had gone on hunger strike in protest at her and others’ arbitrary detention, including for peacefully exercising their human rights.

"This is a shocking reminder that Thai authorities are harshly denying pro-democracy activists their freedom in an apparent bid to silence the peaceful expression of dissent"

🔹1,672 COVID patients were admitted to hospitals and 9 died

🔹 55 of 148 patients who were put on ventilators were under 59 years old, so younger people should also be on guard against Covid infection.

Amnesty International calls on Thai authorities to drop charges against two young activists accused of lèse-majesté and "computer crimes"

“Today’s indictment shows that Thai authorities are continuing to weaponize spurious charges to silence critical voices of young people who want to speak about their human rights,” said Amnesty International’s Thailand Researcher Chanatip Tatiyakaroonwong.

Walking around Sriracha to get breakfast this morning, some 60%-90% of folks in mostly respirators. It was just the Thai New Year's celebrations here over the weekend, maybe folks are seeing an uptick in sickies and responding appropriately, or just taking a simple effective precaution to avoid illness.

Fwiw, I've encountered very few coughers or wheezers in shared indoor spaces compared to what's been normalized in the US. Go figure 😒
