Wait until the winter arrives. This is what is going to drive the number of tourists up....cold & covid. C&C. I think Thailand would be a far better place to spend some time in Jan/Feb in regards to cold and covid than Germany, if they ramp up the vaccination rates. Currently in Europe...thick fog outside, all grey. Can't wait to slip into my flip flops in Phuket next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If cases in Thailand go up again, who do you think they will blame. Yes, the foreign tourists. Who else than those who bring the virus here? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The A.30 mutation is wandering around and bypasses the vaccin. A.30 is on of the 9 or to known mutation that are able to bypass the vaccin. Tourism, traveling and things line events are helping the virus to travel and spread faster. Edited November 5, 2021 by Autonuaq 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last i heard Hua Hin was a ghost town due to their absence.

Rush, scramble, run, dash, hurry, scurry are just some of them. I suppose the news clones who compose these stories think that using these words will make their fairy tales more believable..
