I dont see how it works. I dont see 7.9 billion people EVER being vaccinated...especially with ever evolving variants and the need to pump out boosters.....the logistics of making 7.9 billion boosters and getting them out to that Kazakhstani goat herder are...well...????? The plan aint great is it. Like his plan was great: Texas anti-mask ‘Freedom Defender’ Caleb Wallace dies at 30 (msn.com) Another idiot less, keep promoting Ivermectin people.

I used the search function but couldn't check all 15 pages of this thread ???? (Bloomberg said that domestic flights opening is included in this new set of relaxing rules) I for one ( and a few others ) would like to know the same . The " Sandbox rules " state that you are free to travel around Thailand after your 14 days free of covid tests but How the xxxx are you supposed to travel without provincial flights , buses or trains . This must also be hurting Thai business people who use the interprovincial flights on a regular basis . As long as every passenger has proof of compliant vaccinations , there should not be a problem because there are still international flights coming to Thailand , with many more passengers than local flights , and lots of returning expats wishing to join their families . I wonder if they know about the lack of internal Thai flights . Imagine , sandbox in Phuket and after 14 days then want to get to Chiang Mai to your family etc . TAXI ? joke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwaibill Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 On 8/27/2021 at 8:14 PM, Trujillo said: "Authorities asked business operators to ensure service staff are fully vaccinated and regularly tested with antigen kits, and to require customers to show proof of vaccination and negative tests." Am I wrong in thinking that it is illegal to force an employee to take a drug they do not want to take or else face pay deductions or dismissal? I believe you are incorrect, though I admit I don't know the Thai law on that. In the US the courts have let stand vaccination mandates in several instances. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJack54 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 So as few others suggest....this vaccinated requirement for customers will not be enforced. How does this change things for all the street food vendors. Many have seating most open air. The couple that my gf has spoken to think that customers can sit and eat as from Sept 1. When I mention vaccination the gf just states the usual....."why farang so stupid" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChomDo Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 So even after days of this unclear reporting, does anyone have an understanding if the vax certificate is applied to dine in only or all the other reopening businesses? It's still not stated clearly, which is unbelievable. Parks and malls are opening in 2 days and we still don't know for sure who can get in?? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the only way to know is to try haha. It's too bizarre why they can't just make it clear. Seems to me that if everyone can go everywhere freely then the anti-vaxxers are the winners of this situation. If dine in is really the only place where a certificate is required, then it pretty much doesn't limit the vaccination haters from living normally. I'm fine with that but just quite the opposite to Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that the general restrictions re opening hours, take away only and restricted seating provisions applied,at those times (not now) to ALL restaurants. But as far as mandatory vax and PCR tests for staff were concerned, it was/is a personal choice of the restaurant owner I guess. I was just pointing out one typical example of.one quite large restaurant group who adopted these measures. Vax or bye bye. Other Thai friends of hers working in other establishments reported the same. Earlier on there were some reported bad cluster outbreaks in certain restaurants, which were subsequently closed for weeks on end. I think the savvy owners didn't want to lose valuable staff, even though patrons can come in unvaccinated, unmasked (eating) and possibly spread the virus around. All a bit crazy really when it's so simple to go and get a vaccine there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
