**dirtydog** · 12-06-2009, 05:37 AM

24 Confirmed cases of Swine Flu here in Pattaya.

We can now confirm that Swine Flu has arrived here in Pattaya. This devastating news was confirmed in a press conference held at Pattaya City Hall on Thursday by Khun Wittaya, Thailand’s Public Health Minister. He confirmed that a total of 24 cases of Swine Flu have been detected and all those infected are now under strict quarantine to ensure that the disease can be controlled. 17 infected people are staff members of the Star Dice Discotheque in Naklua. The venue was checked following the news that Taiwanese Tourists who returned home after a trip to Pattaya had gone to the discotheque during their stay here in Pattaya. A further 7 infected people were either close friends or family members of the 17 staff members. Over the next few days other large venues including discotheques and pubs will be checked to ensure that the disease does not spread throughout the City. If you do notice symptoms of the flu on yourself or others, you or they must go to Banglamung Hospital which is the local dedicated disease control center. The Public Health Minister also urged all Pattaya residents and Tourists to wear surgical masks for the foreseeable future and we can also confirm that the Star Dice Discotheque in Naklua will be closed until further notice and any other venues affected by the virus will also be given closure orders.

DD, I've been googling and I cannot find "Pattaya One New." You text above seems to come from a blog of some sort.

No other info on this is found.

EDIT IN:

I found it on "The Nation." The number of Swine Flue infected has reached 48 and I'm sure it's higher.

Remember, it's like a flu. See a Doc, get rest and then you'll be back in action.

But....they are now closing clubs in Pattaya for Farangs for a at least a couple of days.
