A disturbing health incident serves as a stark reminder for parents to maintain proper hygiene with their children. Facebook user Sirinthon Homnak shared an account of a 2-year-old admitted to the emergency room with over 10 bouts of vomiting. The child appeared exhausted and pale. While preparing an IV drip, the child vomited again—this time with what appeared to be a string-like object protruding from the mouth, wriggling visibly. When staff pulled it out with cloth, they discovered a 15-centimeter roundworm. While waiting, a second worm emerged. The poster expressed shock at how many hundreds of parasites might be inhabiting the child's stomach to pass through the mouth. The post emphasizes: "Before eating or playing, make sure children wash their hands properly."

Roundworms (Ascaris lumbricoides) are the most commonly found parasites in humans. Infection occurs when parasite eggs contaminated in soil, water, or food are swallowed. Adult worms live in the small intestine and can grow up to 20-40 centimeters long. Heavy infections may cause intestinal obstruction or parasites migrating to other organs.

Common symptoms include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, bloating, diarrhea, and loss of appetite. If larvae migrate to the lungs, patients may experience cough or fever.

Prevention methods include: washing hands thoroughly with soap and water before eating and after using the bathroom; washing vegetables and fruits before consumption; drinking clean water; and eating freshly cooked food. Keep children's fingernails short to prevent parasite eggs from accumulating under nails. If infection is suspected, consult a doctor or visit a healthcare facility immediately.

Monsoon Alert: Heavy Rain Expected Across 29 Thai Provinces
9h ago Khaosod

The Thai Meteorological Department issued advisory notice No. 8 (124/2569) on July 12, 2025, warning of strong southwest monsoon winds affecting the Andaman Sea, Thailand, and the Gulf of Thailand from July 12-15. Upper Andaman waters will see waves 2-4 meters high, exceeding 4 meters in thunderstorm areas. The upper Gulf and lower Andaman will experience 2-3 meter waves, surpassing 3 meters during storms. Mariners are urged to exercise caution and avoid thunderstorm zones, while small boats should remain ashore during this period.

Heavy to very heavy rainfall is forecast for the southern western coast, western central region, and eastern areas July 12-14, particularly in Ranong, Phang Nga, Chanthaburi, Trat, and Kanchanaburi provinces. Residents should prepare for sudden flooding and flash floods, especially in hillside areas and low-lying zones near waterways. Typhoon Bavi made landfall in China's Zhejiang Province and will weaken to a tropical storm and depression; it will not directly impact Thailand but will strengthen the southwest monsoon.

The public is advised to plan activities carefully and monitor weather updates from the Thai Meteorological Department via tmd.go.th, phone 0-2399-4012-13, or hotline 1182 available 24/7. The next advisory will be issued July 12 at 5:00 PM. Overall, scattered to heavy rainfall is expected nationwide, with very heavy rain in western central, eastern, and western southern regions due to the strong monsoon and a low-pressure system over northern Vietnam. Coastal residents should remain alert to dangerous wave surges.

England captain Harry Kane revealed that his team advanced to the World Cup semi-finals without playing at their best. England narrowly defeated Norway 2-1 in extra time during the quarter-finals of the 2026 FIFA World Cup on the morning of July 12 Thailand time. Following the match, Kane told BBC Sport: "Our message going into today was to go all in. I've seen us in training and I've seen the quality, especially in the final third, but we haven't quite been able to put it all together. Yet we've reached the World Cup semi-final without playing our best football." He continued, "If we can find it in Wednesday's match, it could be the difference between winning and losing this tournament. We'll enjoy it, rest up, and prepare for the next game in the coming days."

Rooney lavished praise on the young midfielder, saying: "Tonight was a difficult match. We lacked quality, pace, and rhythm, but when you have a player like Jude Bellingham, you always have a chance."

"I said before the tournament started that there would be games where we would need Jude Bellingham," Rooney added. "I point to Steven Gerrard in the 2005 Champions League final—a match where people needed him most, and he delivered brilliantly."

Argentina's World Cup Prize Money Diverted To Mystery Company
11h ago Khaosod

Media reports indicate that Argentina's 2022 FIFA World Cup championship prize money of 42 million euros—part of approximately 300 million euros in total winnings—was transferred to a company with no connection to football.

Previously, Yahoo reported that the Argentine Football Association (AFA) is under investigation by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and U.S. federal prosecutors for allegations of money laundering and financial misconduct.

Recently, prominent journalist Romang Molina revealed that just nine days before the final match where Argentina defeated France, a contract was signed allocating 30% of the AFA's World Cup revenues to a company named TourProt Entertainment.

Following Argentina's world championship victory, FIFA transferred 42 of the 300 million euros directly to that company. Investigations have indicated the company has no connection to football whatsoever.

Nevertheless, these allegations have only been publicized through Molina's reporting and have not yet been confirmed by any legal ruling.

FIFA Referee Chief Denies World Cup Decisions Face Pressure
12h ago Khaosod

Pierluigi Collina, head of FIFA's refereeing division, has firmly denied that referees at the 2026 World Cup face any external pressure or influence in their decision-making, regardless of who is involved. Heavy criticism has previously surrounded refereeing decisions at this World Cup, particularly in the Round of 16 match where defending champion Argentina narrowly beat Egypt 3-2, with allegations of bias favoring Argentina. Additionally, FIFA President Gianni Infantino's influence came under scrutiny in the case of American forward Folarin Balogun, who received a red card and later had his one-year suspension overturned, with Infantino admitting he had spoken with U.S. President Donald Trump about the matter. In his latest statement, Collina said: "No one should question the integrity of World Cup referees. When such incidents occur, it could lead to threats against officials or their families. Similarly, no one can claim that decisions result from anyone's influence—not even the FIFA President."

The BBC reports that FIFA's disciplinary committee chairman declined to answer journalists' questions regarding England defender Jarrell Quansah's two-match suspension. Quansah received a red card in England's 3-2 Round of 16 victory over co-hosts Mexico, after which England appealed the ban following the case of US forward Folarin Balogun, who received a one-year suspension. FIFA subsequently upheld Quansah's two-match ban, sparking further criticism including from England manager Thomas Tuchel, who stated he has received no explanation for the punishment. Most recently, BBC editor Dan Roan confronted FIFA disciplinary chairman Mohammad Al Kamali with questions about both Quansah and Balogun's cases, but Al Kamali provided no answers. FIFA previously issued an 871-word statement on Balogun's ruling, emphasizing that the decision was made after considering all relevant circumstances and evidence, though it declined to specify what factors were actually considered.
