Mr FT I think you were more interested in flirting with that nurse. I have a feeling that the way this pandemic is progressing we will all be sending more time flirting with nurses.

Posts: 193Antibody test
I was in country January and February before full on shit storm hit. While there I had a cold and sinus infection. Antibiotics etc cured after a few days. I was thinking I might have had the covid flu so when back home I got the antibody test (blood test) hoping it would be positive giving me some potential immunity. Nope, test came back negative. Nurse said that is Good News sir. I said not really, I was hoping to have some immunity and she said maybe it will be a slightly different strain later. I laughed and told her if her logic was true then we both should not bother with annual flu shot bcuz we never know exactly which strain of flu will be around that year. She hesitated and said of course you are correct but I have been told what we have to say, wtf.

Today Manila was kept to GCQ, but Duterte said that Manila restrictions will be further eased to revive the economy. Hopefully on July 15 it will be change to MGCQ just in time before going there. There is a huge difference from GCQ to MGCQ, condo restrictions are lifted, here in the province I could bring a visitor without restrictions and not writing her name or giving ID. Well most of my visitors has been friends or family of my GF but still, I don't think bringing a girl will be any different.
I found a condo in airbnb that doesn't have security guards but is still secure because only people with a key can get in and because it has alot of cameras. Most reviews for that condo said that condo is secure so you have nothing to worry about.
That condo will be perfect for bringing multiple girls in a day since not restrictions and guards. I send an email to the owner a couple of days ago, so far no reply.
Worse case I will have to book a girl in my condo, and then when she goes to work I will use the short hotels close by for the other girls.

My condo is NOT allowing outside visitors in yet. If you have a visitor you have to meet them in the lobby.
You should try Air bnb to find a condo but ask a lot of questions before you pay, becos the condo might be locked down. That means you might be allowed in as the tenant, but no visitors will be allowed.
Or maybe I should book the condo every 3 days and check-in a different girl everytime, hahaha that will be fun if it works, LOL.
Conclusion: Use air bnb to get a house but again, ask a lot of questions. You are also running a helluva risk with 3 or 4 girls a day. How will you be sure at least 1 of them or all of them are not carrying the virus? If she has come from Tondo for example, yikes.
(One reason why I won't go near LA Cafe for a long time yet).
Does Tondo have a bad coronavirus epidemic? Or you just think because most of Tondo is a poor area so they might all have the virus.

2. "No sir. But the property Admin might have restriction". BaJesus! You don't know? You are not 100% sure?
3. "No sir. The property Admin maybe has restriction. You ask them". Wait. You want me to fly to your city, taxi to your building, and ask at the front desk about the age restriction? "If you want to sir". BaJesus! Can't YOU ask them, since you live there? "Oh. Yes sir". BaJesus! Did the building Admin not notice you of these things? "I don't know sir. I can check". BaJesus! In chatting with the Admin at one such property, they told me: "Yes sir we notice every unit owner at the start of Covid lockdown. In fact, its the unit owners that have meeting and vote for these restrictions. Then we notice to all of them. Also we put up large sign in lobby and sign in elevators. Any owner tell you they are not aware is not telling a truth".
All condo properties have told me that all visitors must have same appropriate medical clearances here. Its one reason I don't want to go back to Manila, as I'm sure its the same there. One property Management told me that if I rented an airbnb place there, that I would not be allowed any visitors for any reason. I told them the airbnb rental was for two, me and my GF. "Sorry sir. You only will be allowed entry. You decide that with the owner and airbnb. But you only. No guests or visitor". I informed the owner, as the airbnb rental was already complete. He refused to refund, and I had to turn to airbnb. They refunded in full (official reason was not Covid, it was "Unit was not as described in listing" This is how it goes.
SN: The idea of coming in July is probably way too soon. If you've been following the discussion here, there have been guesses as to when lockdowns will lighten (they have, June 1), just a bit. Sunshine-up-the-ass estimates are for this year, more conservative estimates are 2021 (or later). WC.

For some it's just one or 2 floors. For others, it's almost the whole place.
Entry to hotels is now very strict.
I went into EDSA Shangri la yesterday. Had to go through temp check, wash hands, then fill up a form saying where I was going (which resto or room) . I was using it as a short cut so when confronted by the form I excused myself and did a you-turn.

Posts: 173Manila accommodation....
I'm planning to go to Manila on the third week of July, does anybody here in Manila know of a condo or accommodation that is girl friendly right now?
My plan is to have 2 or 3 different girls a day and bringing them to my condo, are the covid accommodation rules impossible to do this? Am I allow to only bring 1 girl a day or are there still condos allowing to bring multiple girls a day?
My other plan is to rent a house, so that there won't be any guards controlling your guest coming in and out.
Anybody that can recommend me of a rental house in Manila?
BTW I'm already in the Philippines, so I will be traveling from the province with a travel pass and a medical clearance.

Posts: 173I'm not surprise of the high amount of new cases.
It was expect it that the cases will increase once they start testing regularly, before June they only test it like 150,000 to 200,000 people, in this month of June they started testing regularly and now more than 700,000 test have been done so far (500,000+ test in the last 3 weeks. Compare to 200,000 test done before in 2. 5 months /10 weeks).
If anything, we shouldn't worry too much since the cases are low comparing to other countries that test regularly, countries like: USA (30 k cases daily), Brazil (30 k cases daily), India (15 K cases daily), Russia (9 k cases daily), Spain (5 K cases daily), UK (4 K cases daily), Italy (4 K cases daily), Germany (4 K cases daily), France (3 K cases daily), Canada (1. 5 K cases daily). Philippines are only getting about 700 to 800 daily cases on average (less than 1 k!) during their regular testing time.
As long as they keep controlling those cities with high cases like Cebu City (keep them in ECQ until improves), I don't see Philippines getting worse or as bad as many Latin America countries right now. Remember there are alot of Philippine cities Covid cases free and provinces with less than 100 cases in the whole province!
In my opinion Philippines are doing a good job so far with their Quarantine laws.
I know there are other countries doing better BUT most of those countries don't have 100+ millions population, if you compare Philippines to those countries of 100+ millions population (even 80+ millions) this country is doing pretty good with lower cases.

2 months ago it "seemed" as if they had a handle on it, and had a lot of this board optimistic, it was just too good to be true the Philippines we all know and love is showing its stripes here imo.
Largest increase in new cases from Cebu City in Central Visayas.
