People not self-quarantining
Kiwi ? you mean the guy you just hilariously referred to as "the kiwi gun monkey" ?
Are you aware that even in airplanes people allowed to take off their masks when they're eating and drinking ? Or have you been disconnected from the real world for so long that you assimilate sitting outside on your own with daily partying ?
So Robbie, get off your high horse and stay home. It's a dangerous world out there, with your being beaten up everywhere by everybody and all.

Oh Christ.
OK. Justify your total disregard for the very light-touch Cambodian quarantine rules, having flown in from a highly affected city and in light of the kiwi gun-monkey's (a term he has used to describe himself) assessment of community infection on the economy and the lives of those less fortunate than we are and those foreigners who would like to fly in too.

Justify your term "total disregard" which I absolutely dispute. You're a dick, as usual whenever you're online.
I stay home, I go out riding a bicycle to get food and drinks. I run into the occasional asshole like the other day when you tried to pinch my bag, sitting at my table at a terrace outside.

There was a study in Brazil that linked areas which had big dengue outbreaks last year haven't the lowest COVID cases, and Brazil is getting battered by the 'rona.
There was a massive dengue outbreak here last year (the worst in xx years?), don't know too much about it, other than something on Reuters Brazil a few weeks ago, but will stick my uninformed oar in with the dengue theory.

Why is logos talking about it being a dangerous world out there and telling Rob not to be scared?
The 14 day self quarantine requirement is not to protect you logos. It’s to protect others from you, particularly as you are coming in from a high risk country.
It’s hardly a huge request to make and it does you little credit to think it doesn’t apply to you.

Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
Following quarantine, seems basic politeness. Kiwi is clearly correct, the unlikely but possible consequences, tighter economic shutdown for EVERYONE, are so great, that isolating a couple of weeks is just what any individual traveller owes to society. Like trying not to fart in elevators, it is something you do for others, not because you are afraid to smell your own stink.
I read that about dengue too, but nothing since. Seems the significance of the observation remains unknown, the real science community, not bums like yours truly, are awful busy at the moment.
Years ago, they used to say Dengue had variants A-D and the odds of it being fatal increased if you had encountered a couple of other strains before, but not the strain you were fighting at the moment. If your immune response was too specific, "No worries, I got just the tool for this.", you were more likely to kick off and not reproduce. Deep in my armchair, I haven't heard anything about Dengue strains for years, but that was the kind of thing I meant to say about the value of a naive response to this new virus. (I avoided mentioning this in my previous post because Dengue is complex and different. Khmer adults hardly notice it, yet some years it kills a lot of kids. Of course, I refer to Khmer adults that didn't die from Dengue as children. Expat adults might not often die, but we sure can feel bad. Then, too, Dengue has long been a human disease, you don't get it in remote jungle, but around people's homes. Complex.)
Commenters are right to jump on me for "jungle meat", though I of course never implied eating it made locals childlike in personality (I don't think that.). I was talking about the initial naive immune response I talked about again above.
Hunting is popular with certain folks worldwide, but it is different if you long lived in close proximity to the rich diversity of the tropical jungle as a good proportion of Cambodian adults have not so long ago. You could even stand in front of the first Bert's Books at 6pm and watch millions of bats emerge from the National museum, the same 'schooling fish' type show you get at the Battambang Bat Caves today, but right in the very centre of the city. In Cambodia, though I'm not now proud of it, I've eaten turtle, snakes, rats, bats, various deer, boar, and lots of other things too, I think most Khmer adults over 40 have too. Why not ask your friends and co-workers?
This may be totally irrelevant to Covid in Cambodia, of course, for all I know, maybe those in the Philippines and Indonesia, and South Africa who commonly closely encounter a wide variety of bat species are the very numbers we can see on John Hopkins tables any day of the week. But maybe not.

There are three guys, at least, in Kampot who arrived from various euro countries in the last week who are openly out and about the town.
Now, I'm not scared of the covid itself, but if they test positive they could trigger a rash of testing down here and force all staff, owners and patrons of everywhere they went to isolate for two weeks. That would really suck donkey balls.
That's shitty behavior.

To be honest when I started the thread my feelings were entirely selfish. Kiwi put it in perspective re. damage to the economy and livelihoods.
Right now I'm sitting with a charming couple who flew in, did their two days in Sokha, had their motorbike delivered there then rode straight to their home in Siem Reap and stayed at home till they went out for their 3rd test.
That seems pretty responsible.

He said, “girl you’d better try to have fun no matter what you do”.
I'm getting fucking sick of this now.
Every time I go somewhere I meet another one, and some of them take umbrage when you refuse their proffered outstretched hand or want to hug you.
One i know of has 3 to 4 girls visiting his room every day before he goes bar crawling himself.
It's fucking selfish. Their pleasure is somehow more important than the economy or others' safety.

Others, claiming to be recently divorced fathers of 2 (whose kids live with mum and her new husband) were trawling online dating sites for countryside poon- obviously not mentioning the real wife left behind for visa purposes.
