Hi, my wife is Japanese, I am a permanent resident on a lifetime visa. Lived there for more than 20 years. I am so tempted to get a "second opinion" test done at another clinic and see if it is still positive before deciding on anything. The hotel we are at now is not an official "hospitel" but it is an SHA Plus. Told the front desk our situation at noon and they have not said or done anything. We gonna get kicked out I wonder?

Hi; thanks for the advice. I was thinking the same, why did we both test positive? It was a saliva based test, not nasal swab, and we both have been having a very minor cold (but no fever or any other covid-y symptoms) so maybe that threw off the test. I am sorely tempted to run downstairs to the pharmacy and at least get a couple rapid tests for us to try. Plus ask another testing clinic to send someone here to do a nasal swab test. We don't even eat in restaurants- usually we got take out food and ate at our Airbnb. Drove a rental car. Private tours only. No boozing or nightlife. This makes no sense.

Sorry to cross-post with 'another forum', but I am curious about WTH to do.... So, my wife and I are supposed to fly home to Japan on Thursday after our vacation here. Arranged a pcr test with a clinic in Bangkok, did the test.............. phone call this morning. We are both positive! Both asymptomatic, both double dosed with with Phizer (last November), no sign of fever. Did temperature checks everywhere and was 36.5 always. Currently staying in a nice hotel on Sukhumvit Soi 23. Told the staff and are waiting to see what happens.... Waiting to see if our hotel will let us stay here or we have to transfer to a hospitel somewhere. Visa free status will run out in 3 days also- can we sign up for an extension of some kind from quarantine? Bizarre situation. We dont go to parties, bars, group tours, stayed in an isolated villa on Phuket for 3 weeks..... what are our next steps? Advice, grumpiness, scolding, whatever you want to give is fine. Looks like we will be here a while!
