Well, today is the 11th and Minister Anutin said the approved persons on expatvac should be getting a notice by now.

Have any of you who received an approved notice via e-mail received further instructions?  I've been watching my e-mail and SMS like a hawk but no joy.

Dr Pheerayuth said that husbands and wives and lovers could still have sex, but they needed to follow nine protocols, which included washing hands and body with lots of soap before and after sex and no kissing or sharing of saliva as this has been shown to contain the virus.

True...but the most densely populated and the epicenter of the current infection wave ...makes sense to first hit that area. Given unlimited vaccine supplies situation would be different

What you say is correct however on the other hand it would be silly to have outsiders (like myself) travel into Bangkok, additionally while only treating people in BKK the rest of the country is producing more & more cases.

the driver, who has narcolepsy yet still continued to drive

Why on earth did the authorities allow this person to hold a driving license? it should not be for other family members to try and talk him into not driving - this of course if he had a license in the first place.

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha is still in the military mind set, -  "Just obey the orders and no questions"
