Many places within our own countries or Europe to visit
If TAT wants visitors NO quarantine but:
- valid (-)ve virus test 72-48hrs before departure
- (-)ve virus test on arrival
- (+)ve quarantine
- every tourist has a bar code issued upon arrival
- set up multiple virus testing facilities: generate employment for local medical personnel:
- daily virus tests of all tourists for 14 days, tied with bar code: charged to tourists at cost
You believe that a tourist will stand in line a d waste hours every day during their vacation?
Arrival test.. yes
Anything after that won't work in real life.
People will simply go where it is easier to enter
More than 99% of the world is not infected... life always carries a risk, air pollution, traffic other diseases kill people too

emmmm .... I may have missed something, I'm up in Vientiane Laos, but the question is, do you guys down their in say BKK, have reasonably regular flights out of Thailand ? Commercial non VIP at ridiculous ticket prices ? I just wondered how the poor tourist is supposed to leave on the 24th or before ? Its quite difficult to leave and arrive in Laos, not impossible, but lots of hoops.
It seems like the immigration officers are getting these tourist to walk the plank into Corona Virus infected waters !
Corona infested waters... seriously, how many cases would show in Thailand, if they tested as much as the UK...

And it's now up to Western countries to handle the pandemic and get vaccinated according to WHO standards.
you are forgetting the ban on China at the beginning of the pandemic - oh wait, there was no ban and the first case outside of China was in Thailand. But Chinese tourists could enter in January and February... without quarantine. Why did they not infect anyone in Thailand? Why would only western tourists infect Thais?
Something does not add up

Wear a mask, stay away from crowds and you will be fine in the USA... More than 99% of us are healthy...
This is not a "the sky is falling" situation in the USA

I used to think you were just someone with a different viewpoint on things.
Stating this in the context of ZERO cases in country marks you out as, quite frankly, a fascist that will support the ‘party line’ of the military dictatorship over any reasonable, balanced and logical position.
Your view lacks any rational basis and you are clearly brainwashed and without any critical faculties.
You believe the ZERO cases nonsense? With borders open to Chinese in January and February.. and very little testing of asymptomatic people.
There are cases which are not known as untested. Now they can test a few demonstrators and find covid.. then blame demonstrations. How will the general population feel about these protests?
Does anyone really believe that infections in the USA did not increase in June after large protests at the beginning of the month?

Hey Yinn, what do you think about the large numbers of people packed in very close to each other, not wearing masks?
Same as the protests in the USA.. coronavirus cases will go up.
Now the government has an excuse to test participants, find cases and shut down freedom again. 2 birds with one stone.. no need to pretend there is no virus in the country and you can blame demonstrators and get the population scared of pro-democracy events. Perfect

Less work will stimulate the economy?
Sure, why not.. if everyone doesn't work at all, the economy should be great according to that logic.....
And the money to support all Thai residents grows on trees. A true paradise

The “go fund me” crowd without adequate insurance have received extensive coverage in the Thai press.
Whether or not they were a burden, who knows but it’s imprinted in their skulls that we’re milking them.
"We are milking them"... seriously
Let's add up all payments for treating foreign tourists and compare to payments from western guys to the various Thai girlfriends. My gut tells me it won't be even close
-
I am surprised it took that long for people to realize that closed borders impact so much more than tourism. I had been saying this for months
Let's see how many company closures and unemployed will result from the real estate problem. Especially when new development or construction stops. Another huge part of the economy down the drain
Just waiting for the reports of factories not being built or being closed by Japanese and Korean companies. Construction of high-speed rail between airports already is delayed as far as I know..
Soon Thailand will be left with civil service, military and agriculture as economic engines

What about the 3 Thai residents who flew from BKK to Tokyo and tested positive on arrival in Japan?
They all got it on the plane? Lol
But they are being counted as Japanese cases - so Thai stats look good

Is there a single day without Dr Yong's opinion on all things medical, he's a proper media juncki!!
So if I read this right the good Dr is basically saying the quarantine and testing is a pointless waste of time and money, either that or he caught the virus in LoS but we all know that is impossible as it doesn't exist in LoS....
He is the equivalent of Anthony Fauci in the USA... "We all have to hunker down until end of 2021 - even with a vaccine"
These guys are getting their 15 minutes of fame and won't let go

Yes, there are more cases appearing but they don't seem to result in hospitalizations or excessive amounts of dead. Eventually other countries will probably have to follow if they don't want to spend the next few years in a North Korea mode.
Unfortunately, the lockdown brigade in Europe seems to be winning the war there as well.
Hungary- closed to all foreigners,
Spain- anyone visiting has to go under quarantine upon return in most countries
UK - visitors to France have to quarantine etc, new restrictions coming
All in the name of getting to zero infections - which is an illusion

I volunteered to participate in a study Novo Nordisk is doing here in Denmark where we employees in Denmark and the people in the household, get 3 bloodtest in a year, to track down how the disease is spreading, so it will be interesting in a year to see how many of us actually had covid 19.
One of the consequences of the lockdown is that the population remains susceptible to the virus.
In Austria, the Chancellor predicted in April that everyone would know someone who died... So far, my family does not know anyone who even got infected. But they know many who are unemployed.
Same story in the USA - I don't know anyone who died, only heard of friends of a friend who were infected and recovered without symptoms. One friend knows a childhood friend who died in Venezuela. That is it

19 hours ago, Cake Monster said:A good question indeed.
Is the Virus among us at all times, and this guy was only found to be Positive due to a Policy of testing all people who are about to enter Prison.
Or, has he been in contact with a " Super Spreader " who is still walking the Streets completely unaware that they are the source.
Or, is the Virus in the Sewage system of Bangkok
All these possibilities, and more need to be investigated, and quickly.
I suppose we will now see how good the Thai Authorities really are at dealing with these situations. With 600 people having to enter State Quarantine, this will be a good practice session for the return of Tourists.
He must have gotten it from someone (but it doesn't have to be a super spreader). That person may still be walking around infecting others - same as in the rest of the world. Not everyone has covid, as people test negative. Does anyone really believe that there are no cases in Thailand - especially as Chinese tourists were allowed in January, February..
Just look how many people without symptoms are being tested and then decide

Sorry to burst the bubble of the panic mongering Zombie Apocalypse crowd, but one case does not represent "the reappearance of Covid in Thailand". It is less than a pimple on the cheek of a teenager. It will be easily managed. Now, if hundreds or thousands of new cases were to appear, that would be a concern. This is not. Not on any level.
The problem with that statement is that the first case must have gotten infected somewhere locally. So, there is at least another case out there- who also must have gotten it somewhere and so on.
Once more and more people are tested, more cases will show.
Still not a concern as these cases are all mild and don't require hospitalization

19 hours ago, DirtyHarry55 said:Question is where did he get it?
Spot on.. as he didn't build it in his kitchen, he must have been infected by someone else. Maybe one of the 600? Maybe not... but there is at least another carrier out there, who got it from someone else etc etc
Good luck tracing everything back. That is why no country can eliminate covid

- Thailand went 100 days without transmission and now suddenly has a case
- Vietnam went 100 days without transmission and then suddenly had cases
- New Zealand went 102 days without transmission and then suddenly had cases
What is magical about that 100 day mark?
The law of averages catching up!

He was tested when he went to prison... it's not only the 34 fellow prison Thailand has to worry about.
The person was infected outside. So there is at least 1 other positive case walking in public... and how did that person get infected?
Just think about that.
You can't just have only 1 case.. 2 is the minimum

Premiums will depend on where the tourist comes from. High risk country coverage up to a year could set the visitor back 43,200 baht or around $1,300 to $1,400.
Why "high risk countries"? This only makes a difference for the first 2 weeks. If you have to stay in quarantine, then after that all tourists are the same except people with pre-existing conditions.
That is way too logical ????????????

That is only a infographic and it is not a official doucment.
This from the official immigration notification.
"(1) Aliens whose residency report is due under 90 day period, may report their residency in
person or by assigning a person or via registered mail or electronic means.
(2) Aliens whose residency report is due on 26 March 2020 onwards and has not reported
within prescribed period, may report their residency in person or by assigning a person or via
registered mail or electronic means from 1 August 2020 to 31 August 2020;"There is nothing that states it is mandatory and no mention of fines.
Just to be technical.. "may report" gives the foreigner the option to do so or not.
"Must report" is a much stronger way to phrase it.
