If they were smuggled in I wonder what else or who else came with them

A lot of misinformation by many above. The information has been posted repeatedly , but many seem to ignore it because it does not feet in their narrative .

I think we can all agree that if you do not have covid you can not transmit it.Which is why the test and then the quarantine , because you could develop it with in 14 days.

After 14 dats you can go, and its not because you cab no longer get it. 

So you are vaccinated . 

Below is information concerning that from the US CDC website updated Jan 5

"ll COVID-19 vaccines currently available in the United States have been shown to be highly effective at preventing COVID-19. . "

Notice it says Preventive covid 19 , not preventing the symptoms of covid 19. 

the vaccines available now in the US have a 95% prevention rate , which means that there is still a 5% chance of getting it. 

So , reading further more on the CDC website it states :

" Based on what we know about vaccines for other diseases and early data from clinical trials, experts believe that getting a COVID-19 vaccine may also help keep you from getting seriously ill even if you do get COVID-19."

So you have a 5%  chance of getting it but a good chance that you will not get seriously sick.

So you expect Thailand to shoot themselves on the tourism foot, because vaccinated people might have a minuscule chance of getting infected, and an even smaller chance of getting sick. BUT, you think it is Ok to release unvaccinated people from quarantine with a significantly bigger chance of getting infected and infecting others?

Your post demonstrates, you don't understand how any of this works.

just like many other viruses and vaccines

Many of which killed or severely injured millions prior to achieving mass vaccination. But without thorough mass vaccination, they would be reappearing and still causing havoc

The vassel state of Thailand aims to become more like it's overlords in the police state of China.

You do know, I hope, many earn a living in the tourist industry, possibly a million people lost their job?

Are their wishes also selfish?

You think only the business owners have problems?

And the government paying for all that might be difficult, less tax coming in, no income from tourism, less VAT incoming because people buy less (no money), and so on.

Isn't your answer slightly egoistic?

The government has been manipulating the baht for years now and they have been feeding the trough but they can't manage to offer aid to the kingdom's citizens? They are able to drastically increase military spending and float loans for high speed rail and infrastructure projects, build an overpriced parliament building and countless other projects, but they can't offer aid beyond travel discounts and some vouchers?

throwing the borders of Thailand open to a world literally drowning in new Covid infections, before a vaccine, is a great idea. Maybe you could apply to greet the arriving guests as they deplane?

Lol lol look at how you go on for a virus that has an 99.8% recovery rate. It affects the old and the normal flu kills more people weekly than covid. 

 

Yous come on here crying of covid but go kiss and <deleted> prostitutes day in day out after many other been there without the worry of much serious infections like Hep C and HIV which has no cure. 

 

Kop on <deleted> 

You are spouting gibberish garbage. The flu doesn't kill more than Covid-19. It effects more than just the old. You are really sucking up Trump's kool aid, which is now causing massive disaster in USA and you want to spread that same falsehood here. You are deranged.

Self interest is everyone’s motivation. There’s no crime in this; you say some should go hungry so you feel safe right? What’s that if not self interest.

You miss the point. The government shut down the borders to protect the kingdom. It is the government's responsibility to provide aid, it is not worth exposing everyone to illness and/or death just to keep the tourist industry's ability to fleece tourists.

Sadly, the "new Normal" is going to be increasing numbers of virus jumping from animals to humans. We have been enjoying life on borrowed time, avoiding the inevitable transfers of pathogens. 

Urban sprawl, increased population, increasing travel and global warming are just a few of the aggregating factors. 

The world needs to prepare for more viruses like Covid 19

The vassal state looking to please it’s masters

If those who are supporting him (mom, dad, other family members)in his evading accountability,were to be arrested for aiding and abetting a fugitive, I imagine his whereabouts would quickly be discovered. 

If the spoiled boy’s mother was arrested and jailed for aiding and abetting a fugitive, one would assume the sniveling little twit would finally come forward to save her the punishment... or maybe he would let mommy rot in jail. Either way some justice would be served.

That is a lot of surveillance for such a small town. Cameras everywhere, A.I. (Facial recognition). Thailand seems more like China everyday.  It all seems bit “big brother” to me. I wonder when the “social scoring” will be added.

Steven  you do understand the people you accuse of "going on and on about it" are simply the admin of this weBsite, TVF.   They are providing fodder for the site  and that's their job.

Steven only cares about showing the government in the best possible light. He is infatuated with Generals.

he is a shill.

I would fine his assurances of there being no coup more comforting, if he hadn’t said nearly the same thing before the last coup.

Everything about this case shouts failure 

The failure to apprehend and prosecute the Red bull heir is a reflection of a complete failure of governance from the top down. 

Can anyone, seriously, have any confidence remaining in the junta's ability to govern?

Steven?

We're observing one of the facts of the modern era, which is to amplify what was already known long before the internet.
 

“The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.”

You can be certain that the loudest voices and most cocksure on TV are the least qualified. You will also observe an almost 100% correspondence between those who don't wear masks and those who believe Climate Change is a hoax. Oh, and you can also guess for whom they vote. I say let the virus cull these bad genetic mutations from the population and their predecessors who failed to apply course correction through proper parenting. On on the virus!

If only they alone were at risk, the Darwinism principle would be so appealing

Likely far fewer than are killed on Thai roadways. Not much of an alarm about those deaths.

Conflating one with the other serves no purpose. Sour implication is double up on the dying?

Is that a quote from Typhoid Mary? 

_{The failure to prevent the infected Egyptian soldiers from wondering out of quarantine doesn’t bode well for the government’s capabilities to manage reopening the country to tourism.}
