Were they tested first? I doubt it; I saw nothing to suggest testing before entering the premises. I find it difficult to see how these new rules are going to be enforced. There isn't enough manpower nor the will. It's easy to enforce. The police, including DOPA, just close places down and take away the staff and drinkers. Other places will quickly obey. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody was wearing masks either. It will all blow over mates. That's the opposite of no problem. It's a big problem for the licence owner..If places don't cooperate they can and should, be shut down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or such places they deem as 'unnecessary' mixing. It was always the point in the pandemic that markets were a necessity in Thailand, as the only place many can get food.

Popular Post Guderian Posted January 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2022 ATK's are not very reliable, so what happens if you test positive at one of these 'voluntary' testing stations? Will they force you to self-isolate at home for a week or 10 days? That's a high price to pay for just wanting a McDonalds cheeseburger, lol. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't force you to do anything, they're no authority, just the people that work at that particular venue. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a byrd in Patty and whenever we are together she just orders all the food and drinks we need, great house party. And the pool and beach are no danger Not <deleted> scared at all but don't need to go, so I will stay away, better beaches down Sattahip way and enough shopping, no lady in Pattaya to worry about, married 14 year.

JustAnotherHun Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 If I would be forced to get tested each time I want to lunch or dine outside, I'd be thrown back to the cooking skills of my GF. That's more scaring than the virus ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewGuy Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I just went into one of my many local 7/11s, asked for rapid tests. No have, have before, (getting more later?) not allowed, go pharmacy. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post moogradod Posted January 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 6, 2022 Today early afternoon at our favourite restaurant: They had a booth with a sign "SHA+ in progress" and the usual contactless thermometer, a list where one could write down your adress and the info that guests must have a 72h valid ATK test, but we did not see a possibility to test on site. It was not needed anyway. When we asked about this whole procedure they said: "Not yet". We did eat as usual. However it must be noted that we are well known regulars there. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newnative Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Tried to eat dinner at a restaurant on the Darkside but they were asking for the ATK test proof. Partner and I ate at home instead. We were surprised this restaurant was requiring it as it is small, very out-of-the-way, and we were the only customers--perhaps others had also left. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post champers Posted January 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 6, 2022 I lunched today at a well known and busy beachside restaurant. Only thing I was asked was "smoking or non-smoking?" 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarrySR Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 The infections from the New Year super spreader parties will be kicking in this week. If the hospital fill up, the next lockdown commences, I predict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the hospital fill up, the next lockdown commences, I predict. The benefit to hospitals from any imminent lock down will not be realized for weeks later, meanwhile, a percentage of the currently infected will become sick, but told to go home, due to no beds available in a hospital. If / when that happens, the undertakers will be busy, going from condo block to condo block. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a news report that there is a police unit doing this in London where they have rights to do that. Sounds unlikely... probably some distorted news report.
