[@IPADRUMMER]

I literally started with this last night in Phuket and I’ve been scratching my head all day trying to pin it on something. Thank you for making this video!

[@Joe74854]

Just everyone remember don’t matter where you are in the world or how much money you got your absolutely nothing without your health ,,please remember that

[@rayronald7269]

Imperative to get electrolytes back in . Easiest is pure sea salt from convenience stores.

[@Del640]

Get well soon Rocket-Man!

[@jcreesy6465]

Great advice and hope you are feeling back to your normal self soon. We know how you must feel we caught norovirus when on a cruise last year for the first time and it’s not something I want to repeat but know how bad you must be feeling. Guess on a good note your saving your cheeky Chang’s

[@sylviab6165]

Yes, the norovirus' spreading, yikes... appreciate your helpful info and speedy recovery. Thank you for sharing, Tony! Bottomline, hand washing ✔️

[@rockettravels1977]

Hope you're feeling better Tony, take care of your health

[@mattshaw1931]

I flew back from Bangkok to UK last Monday, got back in the evening straight to bed...was up multiple times (double figures), running to the toilet with diarrhoea, had the coughs as well, so with every coughing frenzy it was dispensing out of the rear end lol (Not funny at the time, horrendous night, but at least I had five good weeks in LOS, no health problems. Just the cough started last 3 days in Bangkok. Thanks Rocket for your Vlogs and happy retirement to you and the Boss.

[@IamAbel1981]

Hi Tony one thing you need to be aware of is the foil thermo bags that you get your fresh raw meat from the supermarket that you were using to cover cooked meat when you did your roast the other day is a likely source of contamination. Pathogenic bacteria are not killed by freezing only heating food above 63°c as a minimum. You must be careful about keeping raw food separate from cooked so don’t use the same chopping board for raw meat that you used for cooked. Other sources of food poisoning bacteria are from shellfish, unwashed fruit and vegetables. So handle with care and always wash your hands after handling raw meat and fish. Health and safety message over. Now Get well soon fella. 👍

[@rockettravels1977]

Thanks for advice got to be careful especially with the heat

[@timgodson2154]

Thanks 👍

My wife always said to never go outside in the rain In Thailand or you will become sick. In 2007 I ignored her and I had the Tom Tits for a week. Everything your describing is what she said to me. She is watching you now shouting at the TV saying "do not go out in the rain"

[@indiandaeng]

Acid rains from China and India. It eats through paint. No lie.

[@DreamofaHive]

Get some electrolytes to put in your water, that will help with the dehydration. Everyone gets Norovirus but the under 5's and over 60's can more easily succumb to its effects. best way to avoid it if it is going around is to prepare your own food and not to eat anything that someone could have touched that can't be cooked eg salad. And obviously hand washing and hygiene is extremely important. There is a cleaner that kills norovirus on surfaces and is used for deep cleaning surfaces, not sure how available it would be in Thailand. You are right hand sanitizers and bleach don't kill it.

[@tkilla1202]

How many injectables have you all had over the last few years??

[@Bill82759]

Never had an issue here in 16 years. Not sick once.

[@Joe74854]

Good advice , I had something like this about a month ago in uk ,my home , I felt exactly like you did but I felt so cold I was actually shaking and holding a bottle of water was like trying to get on a roller coaster while it’s going just had terrible trouble controlling the shaking . It lasted a day ,the shaking , but after that it simmered down

[@5thdimension954]

You had rigors. You have to be really careful. You were likely very low on sodium and fluids. Always keep some pedilyte on hand

[@rockettravels1977]

Thanks for sharing

[@nevillecollinge4959]

I arrived in Pattaya from huahin went for something to eat in Central next morning the terrible ebgbs went to the pharmacy she gave me some tablets to take when's out New year's Eve to celebrate the new year add a few beers and I thought ok went back to the hotel New year's Day . Does January the 2nd follow up better thanks to the pharmacy everything you are saying is correct

[@PaulMchiggins]

Hope you get better soon Rocket,don’t give it to the Boss

[@tonystockwin9508]

Get well soon👴🏻

[@stuartwallace7536]

You're looking a bit thinner mate 😀 Joking aside, on seeing this vid, it made me realise that NV was likely what i had 4 years ago in South Africa - all the symptoms were exactly as you state. 3 days it lasted - thought i was going to die at one stage.

[@rockettravels1977]

Yes I have lost weight healthy diet

[@kaoliao]

Had that in 04, had to go up country to village, what a nightmare and squat toilets

[@Jjules-zo5fr]

It’s rife in the UK at the moment as well

[@Mark-g5c4p]

I have travelled SEA 4 times in the last 2 years and either me or the other half have fell ill every time,

[@edroyster797]

Hand washing is so important

[@tonyjohnson7320]

Yep! That sounds like MAN FLUE, get well soon.

[@paulannamaher9065]

I was in Pattaya in June last year and got a flu that was going around. Cough, fever etc. I had it for another 2 weeks after arriving home in Australia.

[@Bahtsimpsam]

Stay clear of the grilled parrot in Thailand, I had it once and it kept repeating on me all night..😮

[@rockettravels1977]

Oh no! lol 😜

[@LookingForLloyd]

Have a look at Terrain "Theory".

[@Vlogged-off]

I live here 6 months a year in surin ... always eat thai street food every day ..i never get ill .. eat in resturants ..you WILL get ILL 🎉

[@MrTupeloFlash]

Twice, in 2 years - takes 3-4 days to get over !

[@erikramaekers63]

Suddenly i'm not feeling well ( and i live in Belgium)😂

[@stephenhowell8863]

Stay safe bro. Destination NOT for me. I’m aiming for Pattaya Malaysia. All about the cuisine.

[@rockettravels1977]

Best of luck!

[@Dave-Lefever]

Hand sanitisers only kill bacteria and not viruses. I look back at the Corona Virus epidemic and laugh at the amount of hand sanitiser that I used. 😂

[@pingu8666]

I look back and laugh that all the people in power done everything they told us not to 😅😅😅😅😅😅

[@paulmjprinz]

Firt time in Thailand. Left Canada January 1. Five days in, I got sick my last night in Koh Tao. Was thinking food poisoning but maybe norovirus. Mostly diarrhea, some puking. Then I had to get on a catamaran to Koh Phangan. I never left my villa except to eat a grilled cheese sandwich 36 hours later. Being sick and waking up, checking out, catamaran, checking in etc. Toughest couple days ever.

[@nigelmullen9546]

Came back in 2019 and had picked up cryptosporidium, lucky had been home a few hours before it hit.

[@indiandaeng]

I have had the toilet drama many times over the last 30 years. Food out in the sun for hours, dirty water used in cleaning, unsanitary conditions, no hand washing or gloves ect..

[@mrcollins5188]

Had it last week in Pattaya mate, knocked me out of the game for 3 days, had.no idea what it was until now. Thanks for the info, cheers 👍

[@rockettravels1977]

Glad I could help

[@Biggestisland]

Good advice. I’d also wear a mask when active, although Westerner’s hate this idea

[@streetvida2707]

When you're on the job you mean?

[@WarrickHunt]

Never ever had food poisoning in Thailand and I eat the cheapest street food I can get my hands on
