Approval for self isolation at home on Phuket

[MarkT63]

Hi Guys

 

Anyone know how to get approval for self isolation at home if you do test positive and / or have mild symptoms

of COVID?

 

Not had a test or have any symptoms but just wanyted to prepare for when it does happen

 

Cheers

I'd just isolate and keep it to myself, wouldn't involve any of the clowns.

About 10 days ago I started feeling a slight fever, then the chills kicked in and the sore throat.  I wasn't sure if it was covid or just something I occasionally get this time of the year.  I had those home ATK test kits at home and over the next several days I took 2 test, both came up negative.  But I thought it out and decided if it was positive for covid and my symptoms didn't require a doctor's visit, I'd just self isolate, the last thing I want is to end up in some covid hospital/hotel with a hefty price tag.

Note, I live with my wife & son and we're all fully vaxed.

I think that the question intends to reference "official" tests performed by a third party because you need to, for instance, fly somewhere.

I have seen this graphical info. Whether it's actually followed and in which provinces, is another story. The "possess risk factors" would automatically send you to some facility. They are age over 60 (I read over 65 somewhere else), and the usual conditions (heart, diabetes, overweight...).

In other words, if you're over 65 and in otherwise good health, avoid the authorities like the plague and self-isolate.  If you aren't showing symptoms, you will be after they toss your into a room jammed full of other Covid positive cases - some which will be symptomatic. 
"You over 65 so we put in with people we know make you sick!" 
I totally miss that rationality when you can self-isolate in safety.

I have recently done home isolation. I had symptoms and i went to do a pcr. I was positive. I have done home isolation. I have informed the government through line app and i did also registered online (i google the info and got some links on PhuketNews). They have called me and they asked if all are ok and if i need medicine or anything. Nothing else. I pass it like a flu. My question to all the people here in this post is , how i can get a medical certification that i had covid so as to be able to travel around Thailand with no issues? Called the hospitals Bangkok and Patong but they just do not know and they did understand surprising English. I am not going to pay another 2.700baht or 2.400baht for a pcr only to get the certificate BUT i do have the PCR proving that i had covid, i survived no? so how i shall get this medical certificate? The clinic that i have done the PCR does not know and they have directed me in the hospitals but the staff in the hospitals  do not know....i am used to this kind of Mickey Monkey situations does not bother me but it would be good to get the certificate if somebody knows kindly write me here. cheers
