King of Thailand Maha Vajiralongkorn escaped from coronavirus to Germany to isolate himself at the luxurious Grand Hotel Sonnenbichl in the alpine resort town of Garmisch-Partenkirchen in Bavaria with his retinue.


According to the German tabloid Bild, the hotel was fully booked under the king, as The retinue of the 67-year-old monarch includes a harem of 20 concubines, as well as numerous servants. However, it is unclear whether his four wives live in the hotel.


According to the German press, guest houses and hotels in Bavaria were previously closed by the authorities to ensure quarantine because of the coronavirus, but the local district council made an exception for the Thai monarch, justifying this by saying that “the guests of this hotel are a single and homogeneous group of people without any unauthorized visitors. ”



However, 119 members of the monarch group were deported back to Thailand due to suspected coronavirus - they showed symptoms of respiratory diseases upon arrival in Germany.


The news of Vajiralongkorn’s escape to a luxury hotel across the world was met with great indignation in Thailand: tens of thousands of Thais, at the risk of breaking the country's law on the untouchability of the monarch, wondered — why do they need such a king? Thai hashtag, which translates as "why do we need a king?" Tweeted 1.2 million reposts per day on Twitter.


At the same time, we recall that in Thailand, anyone who insults or criticizes a monarch can be imprisoned for up to 15 years. Nevertheless, this act rallied society against Vajiralongkorn: it is quite possible that the coronavirus will become the trigger for the deposition of the Thai monarchy ...


Earlier, Turprom wrote that the richest man in the world - Jeff Bezos, took refuge in the bunker of the apocalypse, fleeing the coronavirus.


The Thai Ministry of Public Health announced on Saturday 141 new cases in the country, bringing the total number of infections to 1,410.


King of Thailand facts


The precautionary measures taken by the king for his own safety, however, where not accepted by the citizens of his country. Thousands of Thais sharply criticized the king on social networks, although in Thailand this is prohibited by law. Anyone who insults or criticizes the monarchy may face imprisonment of up to 15 years.

cant-bear-to-eat-alone-one-restaurant-in-thailand-is-using-stuffed-pandas-in-order-to-respect-the-social-distancing-rules

In Thailand, one restaurant want's to meets new social distancing guidelines by providing lonely diners a bit of company - by seating stuffed pandas at its tables.


Thailand has relaxed some restrictions on businesses as the number of coronavirus cases slowed, allowing restaurants to reopen but with strict rules in place to reduce the risk of the virus spreading.


"Earlier we had only one chair for the tables where the customer came alone. But for me, it felt strange, so I thought I'd give them some company," said Natthwut Rodchanapanthkul, the owner of Maison Saigon, a Vietnamese restaurant in Bangkok.


Sitting opposite one of the panda dolls, diner Sawit Chaiphuek said he was happy to have some company as he stepped out to eat for the first time in months.


Another customer says that "The doll makes me feel less lonely eating by myself," mentioned Sawit, 25.

Siriporn Assavakarint, another customer, said the new seating rules often gives diners a headache, and the army of plush pandas made things much clearer.


"It's a lot easier to understand compared to other restaurants where people always get confused about where to sit and end up sitting too close to each other."


Thailand reported just one new coronavirus case on Thursday and no new deaths, bringing the total to 3,018 cases and 56 deaths since the outbreak started in January.


The day before, it reported zero new cases for the first time since early March, before the lockdown began.

lopburi-the-city-where-monkeys-make-the-law-macaques-are-aggressive-and-attack-people

In Lopburi, Thailand, primates have taken over the streets, and authorities have been campaigning for three weeks to sterilize macaques that become violent when they see food and are not afraid to attack people.


For a population of 750,000 people, 6,000 macaques have been making the law in the locality for more than 10 years.  The number of tourists has decreased significantly while the number of cases of hospitalized patients with injuries caused by monkeys is constantly increasing.  

The castration of monkeys became a local emergency after they multiplied alarmingly during isolation in homes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.  Left without food, the monkeys entered the houses and terrorized the locals.

who-updates-mask-recommendations

Now they are advised to wear not only sick.

WHO Director-General Tedros Hebreyusus, during a new COVID-19 briefing, announced new recommendations for the prevention of coronavirus.  Here are the main points:


  •  Doctors and other medical staff should always wear masks, regardless of whether they work with infected coronavirus infections or not.
  •  People over 60 years of age, as well as those who have chronic diseases, are advised to wear masks wherever it is impossible to maintain physical distance.
  •  The governments of the countries should encourage the wearing of masks in any places where it is impossible to maintain physical distance, especially for public transport and shops.



  •  Those with symptoms similar to coronavirus infection should stay at home.  All who contacted him should be quarantined.
  •  If a sick person or someone who has contacted him needs to leave the house, he must wear a mask.
  •  WHO considers masks to be of high quality, which consist of three layers of different materials or more.

 Previously, the WHO spoke only about the need to wear masks for the sick, because there was insufficient data (apart from clinical studies, which many experts consider to be of little relevance to real life).
