BANGKOK (NNT) - Phuket has so far confirmed 144 Omicron COVID-19 cases, including locals and foreign nationals. This has prompted authorities on the island to recommend that tourism businesses step up compliance with disease control measures.

 

They especially stressed the need for regular testing using antigen test kits (ATKs), with provincial public health chief Dr Koosak Kookiatkul advising business operators to maintain vigilance and strict health safety protocols.

 

He also said employees should be fully vaccinated and everyone should practice social distancing, wear face masks, regularly wash their hands, get their temperatures taken, get tested for COVID-19 and use mobile tracing apps.

 

Dr Koosak added that businesses on Soi Bangla have reserved a weekly supply of 300 ATKs for tourists. The comment comes after an active case finding operation near Patong beach confirmed 11 Omicron cases around Soi Bangla Walking Street on December 28.

Might as well talk to a wall thinking safety  before greed or pleasure. 

300 ATK a week, what's that 2 test a week for 150 tourists, high expectations, how many for staff testing?

THAT IS IT !! game over !!

omikron means double the cases every day.

within 10 days those 144 cases will become allmost 300,000 cases, the entire phuket population.

the whole population will have to get into quarantine in those so called "hospitels". or that the whole island will be declared one big hospitell with free quarantine for all.
