I cook the padek before eating but raw tastes better.

An educated prime minister like him should know that raw food has bacteria and must be pasteurized before consuming it.

Date: Apr 1, 2008

Update: Samak has flu, hospitalised 'a few days'
(BangkokPost.com) - Doctors at BumrungradHospital, where Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej was admitted on Tuesday morning, said the premier has influenza.

Mr Samak is advised to remain in hospital for a few more days. No visitors are allowed.

Earlier reports said Mr Samak had food poisoning after eating fermented fish at an outdoor market in Vientiane, Laos, on Monday. He was taken to the hospital on Tuesday morning, and all work schedules were cancelled for the rest of the day.

The cabinet held its weekly meeting without him. Deputy Prime Minister Somchai Wongsawat chaired the meeting. Mr Somchai is acting premier while Mr Samak is in hospital.

this is bad for both countries... to come out and say... oh yea he ate padak and he got sick from it... it is kindda crazy. he could easily ate or drank something before from somewhere else.. who knows!!

Actually, Thai media could edit anything to look down Lao people. The PM got flu, but firstly edited sick from bad fish. That is their nature.

They are " SOA PAK MA ". This word would really suit to them who try to look down Laos.

Influenza — it's all around us, especially during the winter and early spring. And yet, as common and widespread as influenza (also known as "the flu") can be, its potential to cause hospitalizations and death is often unappreciated. And so is the ability to prevent it. That's why no matter what time of year it is, the time is always right for Influenza.com.

Fever of 100 F to 104 F, which can reach 106 F when symptoms first develop. Fever is usually continuous, but it may come and go. Fever may be lower in older adults than in children and younger adults. When fever is high, other symptoms usually are more severe.
Body aches and muscle pain (often severe), commonly in the back, arms, or legs.
Headache.
Pain when you move your eyes.
Fatigue, a general feeling of sickness (malaise), and loss of appetite.
A dry cough, runny nose, and dry or sore throat. You may not notice these during the first few days of the illness when other symptoms are more severe. As your fever goes away, these symptoms may become more evident.

Influenza usually does not cause symptoms in the stomach or intestines, such as vomiting and diarrhea.

Stomach Flu (Viral Gastroenteritis)

What is stomach flu?

Stomach flu is a viral infection that affects the stomach and small intestine. It is also called viral gastroenteritis. The illness is usually brief, lasting 1 to 3 days.

How does it occur?

Many different viruses can cause gastroenteritis, including rotaviruses, adenoviruses, and the Norwalk virus. Gastroenteritis is caused by swallowing one of these viruses. The body fluids of infected people contain the virus, sometimes even before their symptoms begin. The virus can be spread by direct contact with an infected person (for example, kissing or shaking hands) or by sharing food, drink, or eating utensils.

The virus enters the stomach and intestine and inflames the lining of these organs. As a result, the stomach and intestine are temporarily unable to perform their usual functions. The virus can also cause food to move more rapidly through your gastrointestinal (GI) tract.

Some bacteria, parasites, medicines, or other medical conditions can cause infections that have symptoms similar to those of stomach flu. If your symptoms are unusually severe or last longer than a few days, your health care provider can determine if the diarrhea is caused by a virus or by something else.

What are the symptoms?

When you have stomach flu, you may have one or more of the following symptoms:

nausea
vomiting
stomach cramps
diarrhea
mild fever
fatigue
chills
loss of appetite
muscle aches.

The illness may develop over a period of hours, or it may suddenly start with stomach cramps, vomiting, or diarrhea.

How is it diagnosed?

Your health care provider will review your symptoms. He or she may examine you and order lab tests to rule out more serious illnesses, such as appendicitis, and to detect complications, such as dehydration.

How is it treated?

The most important thing to do is to rest the stomach and intestines. You can do this by first eating nothing solid and drinking only clear liquids. A little later you can eat soft bland foods that are easy to digest.

If you have been vomiting a lot, it is best to have only small, frequent sips of liquids. Drinking too much at once, even an ounce or two, may cause more vomiting.

Your choice of liquids is important. If water is the only liquid you can drink without vomiting, that is okay. However, if you have been vomiting often for a long time, you must replace the minerals, sodium and potassium, that are lost when you vomit. Ask your health care provider what sport drinks or other commercial electrolyte replacement drinks could help you replace these minerals.

Other clear liquids you can drink are weak tea and apple juice. You may also drink soft drinks without caffeine (such as 7-UP) after letting them go flat (lose their carbonation). Chilling the liquids may help you keep them down. Avoid liquids that are acidic (such as orange juice) or caffeinated (such as coffee) or have a lot of carbonation. Do not drink milk until you no longer have diarrhea.

You may start eating soft bland foods when you have not vomited for several hours and are able to drink clear liquids without further upset. Soda crackers, toast, plain noodles, gelatin, eggs, applesauce, and bananas are good first choices. Avoid foods that are acidic, spicy, fatty, or fibrous (such as meats, coarse grains, vegetables). Also avoid dairy products. You may start eating these foods again in 3 days or so, when all signs of illness have passed.

Sometimes treatment includes prescription medicine to prevent nausea and vomiting or diarrhea. Nonprescription medicine is available for the treatment of diarrhea and can be very effective. If you use it, make sure you use only the dose recommended on the package. If you have chronic health problems, always check with your health care provider before you use any medicine for diarrhea.

If you have been vomiting for more than a day or have had diarrhea for over 3 days, call your health care provider. You may need to have an exam to rule out more serious problems and to check for dehydration. You may also need to have lab tests to determine whether bacteria or germs such as giardia are causing your illness.

Dehydration is a potentially serious complication of stomach flu. It can occur if your body loses too much fluid because you keep vomiting or having diarrhea. If you are severely dehydrated, you may need to be given fluids intravenously (IV). In children and older adults, dehydration can quickly become life threatening.

How long do the effects last?

Stomach flu rarely lasts longer than 1 to 3 days. However, it may be 1 to 2 weeks before your bowel habits return completely to normal.

How can I take care of myself?

Rest your stomach and intestines by following the guidelines above, but make sure you prevent dehydration by drinking enough liquids. Drink just small amounts often during the vomiting phase of your illness.
Do not take aspirin, ibuprofen, or other NSAIDS without checking first with your health care provider.
Call your health care provider if:
- Your symptoms are getting worse.
- You continue to have severe symptoms for more than 2 or 3 days, or you are just not getting better after a few days.
- You develop symptoms that are not usually caused by stomach flu, such as blood in your vomit, bloody diarrhea, or severe abdominal pain.

What can I do to help prevent stomach flu?

The single, most helpful way to prevent the spread of stomach flu is frequent, thorough hand washing. Also, avoid contact with the body fluids of an infected person, including saliva. Don't share food with someone who has stomach flu.

Quick to jump to conclusions. Like Lan Xang said, syptoms of food poisoning are like the flu. The guy was a chef and a food host, its natural he would blame what he ate.

I stayed in Laos for 3 weeks and got sick twice from food. Don't act like Lao food is 100% safe.

I really find it sad that a lot of you are so quick to blame racial ties, or even bring up racial ties, in such a stupid case like this.

I do agree with you. Thai media can do everything especially to look down on Lao people.

But I wonder why his spokesmen do not say anything about that, probably they are in the same gang with Thai media.

Very sad, this news spread all over the world now and it will give a negative image of Lao food to foreigners cry

I have gotten sick so many times in Thailand. I never got sick when I was in Laos. I think the prime minister has a low immune system. He probably got sick off of something else. I think the Thai media is trying to make Laos look bad.

Yes, that's right. That's why I do agree with someone who said: "They are SOA PAK MA".

I also wonder that someone still try to defend the Thai media that has ruined our Lao reputation over the world. That really shows that who is who?

If you look in the LONELY PLANET GUIDEBOOK - all editions since it began, there is a warning not to eat Paadek. Besides, it is not bad that people know that food production standards in Laos are low! So what?! It is a poor country and people need to be careful what they eat. But it is polite to eat the food when you go to visit your neighbours EVEN IF YOU DO NOT LIKE IT, so I think Samak was trying his hardest to be a good neighbour. Even if he did get sick from Paadek, or from flu or whatever, it is still a good thing that he tried it. People get food poisoning everywhere in the world and it goes into the news everywhere in the world - so stop overreacting like a bunch of crazy idiots and eat your paadek instead of paak paadek.

We Laos did nothing wrong. But the Thai media are still trying to put as down. They (thai) are rich, but that is not enought. They like it when Laos was poor.

I'm glad the Laos government are making friends from other region like Japan, China, Austrailia, and even Vietnam. Dont rely to much on Thailand. They are two face liar. Thats how their country stay uninvaded for centuries.. They know how to lied and suck up when they have too.

keep your enemy close. Keep an eye on Thailand even closer.

Yes, this guy seems to be Thai. I am glad that he appeared here so that he could hear my voice.

However, I didn't know that Thai PM had tried hard or forced himself to be a good neigbour of Laos. That kind is not sincere, no doubt.

Probably, all Thai people are not sincere to Lao people, just like someone said two faces liar. Actually, this we all know from past history. Thai people always want Laos to be poor and poorer. They don't want foreigner tourists come to Laos, but stay only in Thailand, reasoning that if they go to Laos, they will be sick like Mr Thai Prime minister. That's the point of Thai media.

Yes, why didn't he eat in restaurant like other prime ministers did, I just wonder?
In any restaurant you can choose any kinds of food, be it Western, Lao, Japanese or Thai. Only the person who claimed that in Laos there is one Padeek is really stupid. You are really far from reality.

Look! Chinese, Vietnamese, Cambodian and Burmese prime ministers are in good health. And they have never tried hard or pretend to be good neigbours of Laos, they are really sincere to Lao people. Here this drama shows well who are our good neibours.

Talking about Padeek, so far I have never heard that Lao people died from especially Padeek. And remember that every time before we eat Padeek, we boil, but not just eat raw.

I know quite well that your Thai media just edited it to look down on Lao people. Unfortunately, this would look down on more 20 million Thai Eesan people as well.

Folks,

Stop acting like a bunch of Cambodian! That is exactly how the Bangkok Elite wanted us to react. We don't have to play game according to their rule. We must respond to their insult in an intelligence and calm manner.

Definitely the media is the culprit hehind all the bad mouthing about Lao. Look at where the writer wrote " femented fish is legendary know to caused stomach". The writer sure rubbed it in to make it sounds worst. But wait, look at all the femented fish that are sold in Lao stores across North America, and where are those coming from? I'm not sure if Siamese are just pathetic, plain dumb, or just wanna insult other. From a Lao, it's definitely an insult to me.

He did not get sick from eating Laos food. If you watch the news from Thai Channel (Thai sattlelite) he sick from a flu (hot weather).
Thank You very much!!! ate nothing wrong with Laos Food.
