You'll have to wait and see.

 

Definitely going to impact tourism.

 

Lockdowns, Thailand style, mainly effect people who want to hang out at bars late at night.  So more most people there really isn't a big deal.

 

If it is more deadly like they mentioned many people won't want to hang around large crowds in any case.
