Popular Post webfact Posted February 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2022 BANGKOK, Feb 11 (TNA) – The Center for COVID-19 Situation Administration approved the Thailand Pass Hotel & Swab System that will complement the Test & Go entry scheme by monitoring the movements of visitors after their arrival. CCSA spokesman Taweesilp Visanuyothin said the center approved the Thailand Pass Hotel & Swab System (TPHS) that would be connected to the Thailand Pass system to ensure that visitors’ movements would be tracked and they would know about the results of their COVID-19 tests without having to wait for a long time. Dr Taweesilp said that from July to October last year about 65,000 visitors had arrived. When the Test & Go entry scheme was implemented in November and December last year, the country received 321,752 visitors. After the Test & Go had been improved and resumed this month, 32,713 travelers already registered for their entry through the scheme, he said.

Popular Post Cherrytreeview Posted February 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2022 If Thailand spent more time and money getting their population boosted rather than these daft schemes, they might actually get out the other side of the pandemic. Instead they have a paltry 20% boosted. So now we have, Test-Track-And-Trace, Test-Swab-And-Go and Test-Wait-Maybe-Go-Hospital. What about Test-A-Gogo or Test-A-Kathoey? 14 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems totally nuts to me and just a way of implementing some CCP style big brother scheme by the back door ! I assume you cannot leave your hotel until you get the first test and go negative result, and similar for the ludicrous day five one. Getting the 'result' on your phone to me is about to cause arguments with guests and hotels and if the guest gets a positive on their phone before the hotel knows , they may well do a runner ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if it gets hacked because of your choice to build a cheap and not secure website, are you then prepared to compensate the visitors? 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Caldera Posted February 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2022 Meanwhile the world seems to be moving towards just a pre-departure test, if any.

lujanit Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Maybe this is why the US government advised people participating in the winter olympics to use a burner phone while in China. The same advice could be relevant in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does that make foreigners look bad or encourage Thais to blame them for the pandemic? I think the numbers were something like 13,000-14,000 yesterday with less than 200 of those coming from abroad. Why do they need to test or quarantine these people at all?

Popular Post smedly Posted February 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2022 Catching foreign tourists with covid is a big earner which is why they put so much effort into it with multiple tests and also allow them to go out and mingle for 5 days just to make sure they have the best chance to get infected 6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also rumor that the requirement for isolation when covid positive will be changed to a recommendation. Press conference in 3 hours.
