well if you didn't catch at the venue why not give it another go at a hospital

How does one confirm they did not catch at the venue?

So everyone who's been to a night entertainment venue in Chonburi should contact the health department?

 

I think there will be long queues if this advice is followed as written.

Well you do emphasize a point.... it would be good to know of what places they are particularly meaning.

Depends on your employment status.

I live in a small town in Ratchaburi.  Yesterday we were eating lunch and a guy came walking by with a megaphone to tell everyone over 20 people had Covid in our town now.  We talked to him and he said a group of people had gone out drinking in Bangkok and came back home with it.
