how are things on ko lipe. is it busy?  are any veg restaurants around??  masssage shops open>  diving available???

do i need to show an exit ticket out of thailand to get the covid extension?   secondly i wonder if certain cities are easier to get extension than others........  finally im wondering if at some point they will require insurance

Lack of customers will do that.

if that is true then ko tao must be hurting. i would assume massage shops are closed?  restaurants and dive shops are only part time opening...................its the chicken ,  egg analogy.  tourist done come cause shops not open.  shops not open cause tourists dont come

im hearing sea tran ferry company is not going to ko tao from surat thani after jan.  11...........due to spread of covid ?  is that correct? other options now?  ko tao must be dead right now?

My crystal ball is unreadable due to Omicon. I think the Test & Go is going to be killed by Omicon but they might do the sandbox scheme for them instead.

Covid 19 extensions being extended is probable.

but sandbox is only in phuket not samui now.  samui  is not happy abou that

Not any more. It has to be RT-PCR test now.

ubonjoe in your crystal ball what u think for after new years.  regarding entry rules. and what about covid extensions.  i think its fair to say the covid extensions will continue on now

if massage and bars close im leaving with everybody else

three week holiday and potentially 14 in quarantine.  u would have to be nuts to come in right now

i hope u are right the booster people in usa are at i think only 28 percent.  which aint great.....................hesitancy is gaining ground.  except in china where its forced upon you

i should call my insurance company in usa/   i bet they would pay for the booster.  as if i got covid in hospital it would take me past my deductible and insurance wouldnt like that

i think there are quite a few moderna shots that have been paid for and are no longer required by the original buyer.

i bought 2 shots back in june or july from Princ hospital Suvarnabhumi in Bangkok, i have now arranged for my wife and I to receive them as booster shots on the 3rd Jan.  after both of us obtaining 2 x AZ shots.

a friend is in the same boat as me but has transferred 1 shot to a friend, he has 4 further shots booked that were for family. who have since obtained booster shots from the local government hospital, there will be others in the same boat with paid for unneeded moderna shots.

but moderna booster is  a half dose.  so if u using moderna normal jab u are over boosting

People scared of taking a jab of a safe and effective vaccine insinuating others are cowards is hypocrisy writ large.

 

the anti vaccers are not cowards. they just are taking up hospital beds and coffins from people who need medical lhelp and death from normal ageing

Probably not.

 

Its happening thousands of times a week.

 

I think its a chance you take and probably in fine print.

in other words airlines are spreading covid around by allowing unvacced on plane

Only because some are waiting like me because resently had shots and will recieve the booster in Jan. Others who are young and in good  health may figure thay don't need a booster for  mild Omicron infections.  Also they only resently started recommending boosters.

For those who had two initial doses of Pfizer/BioNTech, protection falls from 70 per cent at 2 to 4 weeks to 45 per cent at 10 weeks after a Pfizer booster, but stays around 70 to 75 per cent up to 9 weeks after a Moderna booster.

but what after 9 weeks . 9 weeks is not very long. i think what is happening is we all will get covid . the strong will live and the weak will die

im not sure what i will do if the omnicron gets bad here i will boost. i hope they are acquiring stock for when this happens in the meantime dont go to bars and hang out with strangers

VCPs stop Thais more than foreigners and at the Thapraya Pratumnak junction VCP Thais are in the majority of being held  checked and finded. However, the area is cursed with foreigners on motor cycles, in party mode, dubious paperwork, no helmets, stupid clothing etc. The police do a valuable and necessary job.

if a person is drunk they shouldnt be on the road

the unvacceds goal of derailing vaccinations are going ahead.  they will succeed. we will all get covid now . if you are over 65..........in trouble............now everyone will get covid 

Just now, Kadilo said:

……and now they are saying the boosters wane after 10 weeks so it’s a never ending cycle of jabs. 

the unvacced are derailing the effort.  now everybody will get covid

airlines cancelling flights.   can a vacced person sue an airline for neglect if an unvacced person spreads covid around on a plane

Just stay on top of the news and avoid your conspiracy theories and you'll be fine little guy.

Check you Antibody Titer. Under 50 BAU (Binding Antibody Unit) you need to have a booster for sure:). I have one Moderna shot available . If someone needs, message me private.
