webfact Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Fifteen communities in the municipal area of Chiang Mai province were locked down yesterday (Thursday) until November 24th by the provincial governor, as COVID-19 infections continue to spread. Everyone living in the communities is being required to take COVID-19 tests and receive vaccine shots, while employers in the area were told to bring their foreign migrant workers for COVID-19 tests and vaccinations. People living in other areas of the province have been advised to avoid the 15 communities, while those living there were asked not to travel outside, unless it is absolutely necessary.

Popular Post Gottfrid Posted November 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2021 Welcome to Thailand! If you are infected when you arrive, it´s gonna cost you! If you get infected while visiting, we will lock you up. Show a positive test when leaving and you get to pay for stay on an extended lock-up-vacation! 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BritManToo Posted November 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2021 A map showing the prohibited areas would be nice. Otherwise I don't have a clue. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaLa Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 I was planning a trip up to Chiang Mai to feast on the mountains I miss from back in the UK. Not so sure now, or once again is this over reacting. I read the other day that worldwide there have been 5 million Covid-19 fatalities in the last 20 months, so should I stop worrying about the 100 million deaths in the world annually?

Tarteso Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) No mention about Villages like Mae Rim, Mae Taeng … Where the level infections are rising according to the messages of loudspeakers in the streets. A neighbor died two days ago from Covid while no family member notified the authorities of the case. Idiots.

Popular Post brommers Posted November 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2021 The red zones are in the heart of the city and it is impossible to close them off. Vast numbers of migrants live and work in these areas and every time the authorities conduct a testing prigramme they go into hiding, only to reappear a short time later. The authorities have absolutely no ability to get on top of the situation and locals continually ignore the regulations so daily cases increase continually. Hospitals are overrun and try to delay taking in those who are positive, medics are being brought in from other provinces because local staff are overwhelmed, and still CM pretends it is open for tourists. The folly of this is blindingly obvious. 1 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's either side of Chang Puak road, the area surrounding the market and Rajabaht University. It'll be everywhere the students eat, shop and live. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
