So far I've read that providing 70% of Phukets residents are vaccinated by July 1 and I have proof of my vaccination (from Australia) then I'm able to go there without quarantine
But what are the terms?
So some questions for those who may know...... no guesses please
1/ Must I fly directly into Phuket International Airport from Australia or can I transit thru BKK?
2/ Must I have to pre book my accommodation prior to arrival?
3/ Can I book accommodation wherever I like on the island and have the flexibility to move around the island?
4/ How long am I having to stay in Phuket before being able to travel to another Province?

Sounds great. Pity Australia aren't vaccinating anyone under 70 until June, with 12 week wait for 2nd dose.
Think I'll do the 10 days quarantine and get the vax in Thailand
Front line workers as well and that includes quarantine hotel security etc., maybe see if you can score a job? Also you can request the 2nd jab after 4 weeks, it's just less efficient but still gets you your certificate ????

welcome the Chinese with open arms? after all the chaos they created with their virus? and what if they bring another one?
here in Europe, I don't think we will see them back as tourists so they could infect us again with their dirty eating habits
Think you're painting with a very broad brush, it's a very small minority of Chinese that eat bats, dogs etc.
Most Chinese eat good healthy natural foods, unlike most Westerners

So what IS the answer to the lack of deaths and empty hospitals IYHO?
A sincere question because it’s baffled me for a long time. I don’t believe you can hide deaths and overflowing hospitals in today’s transparent media without a Google gagging onset?I'm interested to know how indeed you are privy to know how many deaths have occurred in Thai hospitals since Covid first appeared?
I guarantee that you are not and how hard would it be for a Military Government to hold a gun to the heads of those who might talk?

Mitsubishi Triton is by far the best bang for baht but Ranger, Mazda BT50 and Isuzu are also good units, so just chase the best deal coz none of them will let you down

Great start, now just dump the subs and the moon shot and rapidly supply the crop provinces with enough crop clearing machinery, that they can be loaned free to farmers, so that they dont have to burn off.
The big cities like Chiang Mai and Bangkok will boom and the flow through tax profits will pay for this machinery very quickly

HINT TO STAY ALIVE:
Do not ever drive onto a divided road in Thailand without looking both ways, as there could be a motorcycle barrelling down the wrong side in the Bike Lane with the rider half tanked on Thai Whiskey or just simply ignorant
I came within half a second of killing my passenger and the rider in such a situation recently and I've seen few very nasty crash sites where that was obviously the circumstance

Won't do anything to avoid road accidents. The system is far too lax with almost nothing getting enforced except your occasional roadside bribe. What would really help are proper driving schools like they have in most parts of Europe. A 5000 Baht fine and/or compounding vehicles every time for excessive speeding would also teach them if enforced.
None of the above will ever happen whilst the current system of Policing exists.
They need an independent body to weed out the rubbish cops (start at the top), upgrade the law book and then increase the pay sufficiently to attract replacement diligent workers who will follow the rules willingly or be sacked.
The taxes they'll earn from the lives saved will more than pay for this
Don't hold your breath but.

Not a typo. What I can gather online is that she is from a Latino family or maybe Filipino as they often have Latin names. The accused male has a common black name. The San Francisco neighborhood was in the Western addition historically a black neighborhood. Both accused are from Daly City a nearby heavily Filipino city.
Just cracking a guess, but if the attacker was Filipino and believed the victim to be Chinese, that would be his twisted motivation, as The Philippines are in hate mode on the Chinese re them stealing their islands in the South China Sea

A study in Israel has shown that out of 1280,000 people with a dual Pfizer vaccine dose 20 were infected after 2 weeks.
And that would be a FaceBook report I bet.
If it was for real it would be all over mainstream news media, so your source please

Don't post misinformation. They are actively looking for cases, just not doing mass testing.
One thing they are doing is testing sewage water, just like many other countries. If the virus is discovered, they go into that area and test.
Sadly, they aren't doing mass testing. But so far, have done a great job with regards to the virus. Especially considering how the virus is out of control in many other countries. Especially in the West.
Hopefully, Chonburi will be moved to yellow this weekend.
Australia and NZ are part of the West, so dont post your own misinformation.
No test no numbers, it's a simple methodology and very common in all S E Asian countries

Don't people get it? The rise in cases is solely due to the rise in testing. Most if not all of these people are not ill - in any sense of the word prior to about March last year. Covid isn't going away. it's just a question of how long it takes people to realise that it is just one of thousands of viruses we learn to live with. Or would you all rather live like prisoners for the rest of your life while the global economy crashes deeper and deeper until it affects you and then you finally realise that the global lockdown policy was all a huge error?
Spoken like a true Proud Boy ...Wealth before Health...Donald's man

Is there any TVF members who are (or were) properly qualified in Economics to explain why the Thai Baht remains so high against most of the Worlds currencies?
Please no conspiracy theorists, I would really honestly like to know why it is so?

How many of us know anyone who is ill with Covid now? I don't know anyone.
I dont know anyone who's died on the roads either, or anyone with the Flu, or anyone who's had a heart attack or anyone who's had a stroke.....your point is ???

Yeah, they're not actively looking for cases unless there's a report from a hospital. Then they do a pretty good job of contact tracing, testing these people, and trying to stop the spread.
If no new cases at the hospital, then things are looking good. Perhaps not the best way to do things, but so far, they've done a great job with the virus. Sure would hate to be in the West right now.
Not all of The West
Looking good here in Australia now, strict lock downs and MEGA testing did the job.
WHY??? .... a Government that cares and a mostly compliant population, unlike UK and USA and most of Europe

Clearly they are now testing in BKK.
Now get out into the country side and test test test..... then you will have the best chance to slay this dragon, just as Australia and NZ have done

A guy from 80 years old a "homeopathic doctor" was saying that there was no covid, that there were no people on the intensive care and that doctors were faking it all and getting 20.000 euros per patient.
This was in the news and readily spread on social media. Should these kinds of nutcases that are proven wrong (take them to an IC let them see the people there) be procecuted or at least be banned from the use of internet. Its just horrible how so many of those nutcases keep creating fake news and undermining all confidence.
Fake news really is a problem and its becoming bigger and bigger. I dont like the alternative of censorship. But if news is proven lies there should be some consequences to it IMHO.
Hang on a minute, easy solution...the Earth is flat so why not round them up, whack them on a big barge and push them off the edge?

So, to what do we attribute these welcome results to? Have they stopped doing surveys and couch counting? A magic wand swept over the Kingdom and Coroni went away? Will we ever know? Will we ever care?
The magic wand you speak of is called NO TESTING, thus it did not go away so maybe we will never know, not even the families and friends of the dead casualties.
Those of us possessed with empathy and intelligence will definitely care

Thailand sees a run on hospitals as Covid-19 cases linked to entertainment venues are reported

even your name phuket trader gives you away, you would happily see dozens die in order that you can get back to making money, hence your persistent negative comments re the validity of Covid 19
