I gather from the news that floodwaters have started to recede in many areas in BKK. However, there are some alarming news in the media such as:

and I just wonder how widespread the problem is. Please note that the first link concerns a case in Ranong and not in BKK.

Been working here for two weeks, no problem, nothing. I am in the Silom area though. Maybe the places that go flooded see it different.

Maybe this helps :-

Life back to normal in 11 more districts
-The Nation

Another 11 inundated Bangkok districts have returned to normal and the capital will be floodfree by year's end, Bangkok Governor Sukhumbhand Paribatra said yesterday. He was still worried, however, about two major housing estates in the north and west of Bangkok - the Annex community in Sai Mai and the Setthakij estate in Bang Khae - where water levels remained high.

More water pumps were installed to drain water from within and around the Annex community, and temporary asphalt barrier had been built surrounding it. It was possible that the complex would be dry within five to seven days, the governor said. Similar methods were adopted at the Setthakij estate, but it may take longer to drain flood water there, possibly 15 to 20 days, Sukhumbhand told residents during an inspection visits to the sites yesterday.

The 11 districts deemed to have returned to normal are Chatuchak, Lat Phrao, Lak Si, Bueng Kum, Bangkok Yai, Bangkok Noi, Bang Phlat, Phasi Charoen, Bang Khunthien, Bang Bon and Chom Thong. The criteria for "normal" status are much lower flood water levels and most residents having returned to their homes. Don Muang, Sai Mai, Bang Khae and Klong Sam Wa districts remained mostly or partly inundated as of yesterday.

That's the inner Bangkok area, which were never affected by the floods at all.

The only place you might see signs of the left over from the flooding is at the ChatuChak market, most everything else on the outskirts of Bangkok that flooded was residential districts not many tourists go to, except Autthaya North of Bangkok.

There have been reports of more mosquitos, but not in the Bangkok tourist areas.

Thanks for all the replies. I will stay in Ratchada in my next visit but of course it is interesting to know if there has been any outbreak of diseases in BKK in general which does not seem to be the case.
