    BANGKOK (Reuters) - Thailand is to announce a nationwide curfew between 10 p.m. and 4 a.m.

    With all the entertainment venues etc closed I don't quite see what a curfew is going to achieve..

    better to leave some freedom of movement but impose restrictions on selling of food etc after 10pm and any groups of people over 5 persons?

    Without the ability to buy stuff at night people don't need to go out anyway.

    I am sure there are people who don't want to know and just hope it will pass, particularly those who are still earning money.  The other equally serious issue is that there is hardly any capacity to test those responsible people who have reason to suspect they could be infected and do want to be tested.  By all accounts, most of those who can can get through hospital switch boards are being told to self isolate at home which they may or may not be able or willing to do.  In Isaan there are only two testing labs in Khon Kaen and Korat.  In the South, there is only one, in Songkhla etc etc.  In the villages there are no testing kits and probably not in the amphur hospitals either. So someone in a village wanting a test is going to have to travel to a provincial hospital and beat down the door to get a test which will probably have to be sent to a lab in a far away city.  Go figure.  

    We are in control... hope they got enough boxes!

    Because no-one knows how long this is going to go on (for quite a while by the looks) consider an ED visa if you are applicable. 1900 each month and the hassle and risk of doing this every 30 days in such heat is torture ????

     

    An education visa requires you to study... where are you going to do that with all teaching facilities closed?

    Don't think you'll be granted that one any time soon!

    Phuket didn't enforce the required 14 days quarantine and let him got out of the premises.... just shows how good the communication is between Thailand governments (provincial/central)

    Or how dumb the Phuket minister was trying to keep tourism afloat and ignoring all the information about what was going to happen.
