    I was planning a big trip to Thailand with my mother but realised Thailand does that hugely invasive and painful nasopharyngeal swab (when they push the swab deep into your nasal canal towards your brain) instead of the test we are used to in our country which just swabs the inside of your nostril. 

    You've got it wrong, those tests are no longer enforced on anyone entering the country.

    Unfortunately, they're in public, they have the right to be there, the police have no authority to "move on" law abiding citizens.

    They can tape-off the area... very far away.

    Yes, they could, but they don't, so the public streets are accessible to anyone, anywhere, within reason.   

     

    I don't condone the gawking, at all, but I'm sure you wouldn't be too happy if the RTP were able to tell you which part of the public pavement or which public street you could use.

    Yes, it will be painless, that's what a local anaesthetic is for, I know from personal experience.  Nothing is felt during the procedure apart from a bit of tugging on the foot. 

     

    I've had the full nail removed painlessly and a 1/3 removal of the offending nail on more than one occasion.

    Again, except for the time spent getting there, walking, waiting and recovery. 

    Apart from getting there, all that also applies to digging it out yourself except that the pain will likely be greater as will the risk of infection with self-surgery.

    The other person does not need to have the same app...only a phone number.  The app is nothing more than a means to get a US phone number to use over the internet.  It's just the same as having a cell phone number in the US

    You're seriously suggesting that a person who does not have a phone with WhatsApp/Messenger/Telegram, et al. can receive WhatsApp/Messenger/Telegram et al. calls?  How?   What if the person receiving the call is using a land line?

    I am hoping something got lost in translation. There is no way on earth a government can tell a private consumer goods company what price it can charge for its discretionary products. If Pepsi want to charge a million baht per can, well up to them and good luck.

    Unfortunately, you're wrong in this context.

    Or he could just go to a hospital where it will be done properly and painlessly.

    While it would likely be done correctly in a hospital, it will not be painless
