"Not talking about outdoors, but in places like crowded grocery stores."
It's good to see the OP admits, albeit tacitly, that outdoor wearing of masks is 100% kabuki.

Why is the head of the USA embassy in Bangkok calling himself a chargé d'affaires? Did we get sold to the French since I've been gone?
Heads of embassies of the USA are called ambassadors.

"No-one said you had to take one. Calm down."
How calm do you want me to be? I just stated an opinion, no shouting, no CAPS...jez, some people are pretty picky...

"Like many others actually IN Thailand, I have a jab scheduled."
I think they bailed on all that, didn't they? And syphoned off your personal information to boot, yes?

Good.
I don't want an experimental, emergency-use vaccine for something that has a 99+% recovery rate, and I don't want any help from my government.
But the way, why does the letter refer to the "Biden-Harris administration"? Why include the mostly ceremonial role of vice president in the title? I assume we are being primed for the 25th amendment.
And what does this mean: "The US diplomatic mission has not been spared by COVID-19, as several families in our community have endured tragedies from this terrible pandemic."
So I read this as what? People working for the US government in Thailand have...died? I have never heard anything about this, and I am sure if that were the case, we would have known about it. Could someone explain?And why say "terrible" to modify the situation? Was that fear-inducing adjective necessary?
...and lots of bantering of the word "equitable" without actually offering your citizens anything rings hollow.

Phuket painted itself into a corner by pulling this 70 percent vaccine level out of their...hat.
If a person enters Thailand (or anywhere else for that matter) fully vaccinated, they are neutral with regards the virus. They are not carriers nor susceptible to infection. This is the ENTIRE reason vaccines are created and used.
The vaccine levels are irrelevant if the vaccines work, and no one says they don't work.

How is this incident racist?

The lead photo of the sign on the beach extolling you to wear a mask is probably the single best way to make people NOT come to Thailand.
It is already well understood that coronaviruses do not transmit outside, and the salt air, breezes and sunlight should be enjoyed without constraint.
If I was looking for a place to holiday, and saw that sign, that would be enough for me to cancel any plans to come to the Land of Masks.

It's interesting to see those on motorbikes with no helmet yet wearing the face diaper.
That's risk assessment for you. ....

"I’m a BSAC dive leader certified to 50 metres - I’m dying to put one through its paces… "
So how do you wear an N95 under your dive mask?
-
"The initial idea was a decent one...
- Vaccinated tourists
- 7 Days
- 2 test
- Free to roam island"
Not sure, but don't you need to add: wear a mask all the time you are outside of your hotel room?
-
Actually, Google knows where you are ... or your phone, which is more or less "you," so who cares?

I'm still waiting to hear any word on whether these intrepid foreigners will be required, as per national mandate, to wear a face diaper ALL THE TIME after leaving their
hotel room.

"Good news stories on 90 Day online reporting are always appreciated.
just hope they outweigh the bad ones."
Huh? We are just reporting the facts according to our experiences.
I can't imagine that reporting in person one time would affect the online system afterwards. That would render the online system useless for many even though it "works." Moreover, I have sometimes used the online system and others in person. IF the online system is actually up, there has been no disruption regardless of how I reported.
In the end, I had to go in person. Does that mean, according to theory, that I can never use the online system again?

Not working for me in the past number of days.
I have never been late in 15 years, so it's not that. Tried 3 different browsers. Zilch.

"It appears that the system is checking your previous online report records and is detecting that you are late for doing the report due to doing a report in person or by mail when the extranet was down for 2 months."
I have NEVER been late a day for any reporting in 15 years.
I used the drive-thru "service" last time because I missed the window of time. So I have obeyed like a good soldier in every instance. If the system is "working," I would not say it's working well.
By the way, I use a computer. I don't want immigration software app on my trackable phone. Not that I'm paranoid, just like to keep a clean and orderly house....

I use whatever browser (no VPN) and finally fill in the captcha and then I get this:
This happens every time.
I should mention that I have used the online "service" many times in the past (and have met this before too).- 1

The online system is definitely not working. Hasn't been for a number of days. Tried three different browsers. No go.

"...the Delta variant is more contagious than Alpha, but infections are less severe...."
This is really all you need to know. And that goes for the fearmongers in other countries too.

I'm sorry...but which department is responsible for making "vinyl posters" of alleged doers of misdeeds?
Is this the Department of (nearly) Name and Shame?
Who is the section chief for the "black rectangles"? Personally, I think these are a little thick in the poster, but I am just an amateur.
I recall there being some revision of procedure a few years ago whereby the police were not allowed to parade suspects around with photo shoots. I mean you are presumed innocent until proven guilty, even here. Whatever the case, I know the elderly pair have their own story to tell, yes?

Did anyone tell Phuket that "sandbox" (in American English, anyway) means either a sand play area for very small children, or a litter box where cats take a dump and pee?

Interesting that the topic here is: Do you believe in God and why
There is an assumption in that question (without a question mark). How about: Do you believe in God and why not?
Do you ever confront mask shirkers in Thailand?

"I'd have just thrown you out the lift and told you to take the stairs"
That talk is easy to make on a chat forum where you are safe in your space. Try that in real life and I think you might get a reaction that doesn't meet your fantasy expectations....
