I was planning on going. I don't mind the uncertainty from a health point of view. I am not concerned about getting ill. now all the travel restrictions, forms, smart phone (I don't have a smart phone) are valid concerns and I probably will not travel. I was planning about 90 days (60 day SETV with a 30 day extension) starting around April 20 after what was going to be Songkran. Guess I will stay on this contract job and just dosh up for when things do calm down Edited March 17, 2020 by gk10002000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpanishExpat Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) Cmon..everyone should know how that stuff works in LOS! 99% of the stuff they elaborate is not well thought and won`t be implemented 1:1. They should stop this muppet show and just ban high-risk countries like other countries did. Do it for up to 1 month and then take further action. Knowing how the game works I just believe in 1st hand infos. A friend of mine arrived today at BKK airport. No checks at all, no app download etc. While this new measure wasn`t there in the morning, I thought everyone had to follow stricter rules since a few days. His fellow passengers from FRA also had no screenings at all. Edited March 17, 2020 by SpanishExpat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcnx Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 The Chinese are already selling medical certificates on Taobao, their version of Amazon. They get insurance there too. Thailand’s rules are all for nothing when it comes to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to remind that very small brain of yours, Dr Tedros said: “The WHO doesn’t recommend and actually opposes any restrictions for travel and trade or other measures against China. If anyone is thinking about taking measures, it’s going to be wrong.” At no time did the W.H.O. or the incompetent Dr Tedros advise countries to enforce travel bans or restrictions against China. In fact, he and the W.H.O. said the complete opposite. But in your mind, it's not the CCP that's responsible for the virus coverup or the corrupt W.H.O. that did little to nothing to stem the pandemic, it's all the fault of western countries for listening to the advice given by W.H.O. and Dr Tedros and allowing thousands of Chinese into their countries to infect its citizens when they should've closed their borders. Dr Tedros has been derelict in his duties at protecting "world health" and is part of a pro-China/anti-western propaganda machine. The fact that he not only opposed travel against China but also mentioned trade in his speech, when trade has nothing to do with W.H.O. especially as their job is policing world health, is an affront to anyone with an ounce of intelligence, of which I exclude you. Secondly, at no time has Dr Tedros lambasted the CCP over their coverup and acting too late, not once. Why? Because he's complicit in its spread, that why. The WHO completely blew it on this. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Held accountable by who and for what end? There are those that have taken the opportunity to use it to justify their own racism -- not even based on risk -- just because they are of the same race. Some farang are now finding them on the same end of the racism and justifiably upset about it... Viruses don't discriminate, mutations can happen anywhere. The 'Spanish Flu' likely originated out of America ... It has a name now for both the disease and the virus, that should always be used and people should not be trying to use the virus for their own agenda other than the agenda of holding governments account for mistakes and mismanagement (which for democratic countries can be a factor in elections; or for all - a learning experience). So many countries have failed this preparedness test. 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destiny1990 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 By other governments sure as of now the focus is on finding a vaccine however once that is achieved likely lots of research will go into to backtrack the exact cause of this disaster and or any responsible persons involved at the start. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are all responsible. Our encroachment on wilderness, our warming of the climate and melting permafrost releasing ancient pathogens into the wild - generally speaking - we are all responsible. The Europeans were an agrarian society, the natives of North America were not. Farming society (which we are) live in closer proximity to animals and allow transmission of pathogens that can be transmitted from animal to human - those virus then become part of our environment and we eventually build up immunity. 8% of our DNA comes from viruses that likely plagued us but are now part of us (some of it is now a necessity to our biology). Those Europeans then visited North America and between the point of first contact and the later arrival of settlers -- the population of natives on the continent were absolutely decimated. Virus mutation (like our own gene mutation) is part of life on this planet. We should stop looking for someone to blame. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christophe75 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) I'd say : perfecty fine. This "certificate" is as... smart as the "mandatory form" designed by the french governement, for the people who want to leave their home during quarantine. If they don't sign this form, and take it with them when they go outside to walk the dog... the police can impose a fee... of 38 euros. So a "medical certificate" to visit Thailand ? ... i say bring it on ! As far as hysteria and stupid ideas are concerned.... the thai governement follows the world trends ! No more. No less.

Well if a plane crashes down with only 300 casualties they spend lots of time on finding the cause and the responsible persons.

If a certificate was needed, it's unlikely it's going to happen from the UK, they will be to busy for such stuff in the NHS, and going to the Doctors, just before a flight, increasing your chances of catching it, by coming out of the advised self isolation, get the cert. and catch the virus with no symptoms apparent until in Thailand??? Not helpful. Dad is 86 and has to make his decision to come or not by the 24th March....wish things were clearer. He already has a phone for someone to install an app on and a DTAC Sim, but unlikely he could load the app without help at the airport. As I was on a line call yesterday the house phone rang and an acquaintance (previous tourist to Thailand last year) informed that an friend of his in THailand had just told him someone had just been confirmed positive for Covid in that seaside town area!
