snoop1130 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 An international airline ground staff wearing protective gear works at the airport in Manila on August 4, 2020. AFP / Ted Aljibe, file MANILA, Philippines — The Philippines has temporarily suspended a decision to allow fully vaccinated tourists entry in a bid to prevent a new, heavily mutated coronavirus variant taking off in the country where most of the population remains unvaccinated. It comes as the Southeast Asian nation on Monday launched a three-day vaccination drive targeting nine million people as young as 12 in an effort to accelerate the roll-out of jabs. So far, the country has not reported any cases of the Omicron strain, which was first detected in South Africa and has since spread around the globe.

Suspending entry means nobody will come. That said, I know several people planning to go early next year when restrictions are lifted so, yes, they will come. Of course they will come. It's not just the Philippines tightening restrictions after recently relaxing them. Many countries are doing the same.

As I said many countries are doing the same including Australia. Do you think that people will stop coming to Australia? They won't stop going anywhere once it's safer. Japan just banned all foreign travellers. Will tourists stop going to Japan. Highly unlikely. You are just fear mongering. Countries are just adopting a wait and see approach until more info becomes available. Travel bans are proven to work. They kept Australia and New Zealand virus free until they were lifted.

Stop putting words into my mouth, you are flaming. The bans are temporary. You don't know what Thailand will do. It isn't about trust, it;'s about stopping a virus with unknown characteristics from becoming pandemic as much as possible.
