webfact Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 BANGKOK, Dec 3 (TNA) – Thailand has not detected a COVID-19 case of the Omicron variant yet and the government will have business operators strictly comply with measures to prevent a new wave of the disease during New Year celebrations, according to Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha. Gen Prayut said that there had not been an Omicron case in Thailand but the people who had arrived from risk countries must be called to undergo repeated RT-PCR tests. Their whereabouts would be checked so that local officials would find out if there was an outbreak at their locations, he said. Of 252 people from risk countries, 64 were traced and tested negative for COVID-19. Officials were finding the rest of the people, according to the Department of Medical Sciences.

ukrules Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) They're dithering and delaying and they're doing it for a reason. I think they learned their lesson from before. Announcing to the world that Thailand had the previous African variant of concern only led to problems and now they're having all sorts of problems tracking people down and testing them ???????? See through their lies. They know where every tourist is at all times due to the very rigorous surveillance system they have in place. Either they've 'found' everyone already or they haven't bothered looking....or they're slow walking the entire process....

Alidiver Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Earlier this week a government official said Thailand did not have the facility to identify Omicron but they were working on it. Is this why there is no Omicron? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooMuchTime Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 We will know it is in Thailand when people start having typical cold symptoms such as sore throat and cough. Be highly vigilant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
