if the infection is indeed from thailand, then it becomes a very serious issue.

I think people should be made aware of her movements 

 

authorities in Thailand should be retracing exactly what she did when and where

contact tracing is very crucial. unfortunately it will not be easy as the tourist would have visited many places in thailand.

The Chinese government is lying big scale.

Trust those medical certificates, trust the Chinese, you will see how you end.

Now it's just another 10 -14 days left and you will see and understand, hopefully.

hope not but the possibility does exist.

showing medical certificates, however genuine, will not solve any problem. in fact it give false sense of relief. due to the incubation period of the corona virus carriers may not show physical symptoms at the time of the medical examination. such carriers may show symptoms while they are in thailand and possibly infect others, being in comfort that they have a clear medical exam.

Will they be selling these at the departure lounges?

quite possible.

it is sad and unfortunate but seems the norm in many destinations.

time to reflect on how to be good hosts.

better not to test the health system at the cost of possible endangering the health of the people.

“In the meeting, the minister of Tourism and Sports also disagreed with the proposal, because it might hurt the feeling of Chinese tourists and the country’s tourism in the long term”.

 

"Best quote ever", said The Grim Reaper.

 

it has nothing to do with sentiments but a question of the health welfare of the thais that should be prime consideration.

Classed as "Boat people". They turn  them all around.

so pass the responsibility on to China ?

 

how stupid is that

 

How about Thailand owning responsibility for its own citizens and borders 

no one can determine the risk exposure as carriers may not show symptoms during the incubation period og 14 days.

"Considering"? That sounds a little strong. Let's organise an action committee and hold a series of meetings.

act immediately. my suggestion is to have meetings later. follow some other country model for protection procedures.

I have a prediction:

Many people living in Thailand and Thai citizens have chosen to stay indoors as much as possible until this situation is under control (from what I hear).

That may cause boredom.

I predict in about 9 to 11 months from now, there will be a baby boom of both Thai/Thai and Thai/farang babies. ????

 

lol. you may be right.

A bit late to "consider" this now, yes? The damage has been done already.

My 2¢

still better late than never. 

this should have been done long time ago as carriers may not show symptoms or be detected by thermal scanners at the time of arrival.

did not the pm say that  thailand was completely safe for tourists.

with globalisation in mind, this statement is a joke.
