webfact Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Some provinces in the “Green” and “Blue” zones, where the COVID-19 situation has improved satisfactorily, should be the pilot areas for the relaxation of the requirement to wear face masks in public, according to the Department of Disease Control. Other factors should also be taken into account before the relaxation comes into effect, tentatively in the middle of June, said department specialist Dr. Taweesap Siraprapasiri. Chief of the Epidemiology Division of the Department of Disease Control Dr. Chakkarat Pittayawonganon, meanwhile, suggested that easing of the face mask requirement should start in selected provinces or areas such as outdoor spaces.

Popular Post 4MyEgo Posted May 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) I just can't believe people driving or riding or walking on a main road alone with no one around for miles wearing masks. Only time I wear one is when entering a store after parking my car. When drinking at the local, no masks, what's the pompen. Get rid of them, the kids have already brought us home the cold, Covid will be next, did I mention, that's from being at home, um, maybe we should be wearing masks at home ????

Thailand Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 I think they could ease it in from 1st June with masks being required Monday, Wednesday,Friday and alternate Sundays reducing one day a week until mask free around September when they become optional-or not! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2long Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 I think we all know it's nothing to do with areas of low infection or good management. It's all about money and which areas are attractive to tourism and any other form of income. Also, they don't want to be seen as 'opening up fully' but try to appear to be doing it in a clever bit-by-bit way.... the Muppets, that they are! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
