So, opening up during their biggest outbreak ever - how typically chinese and the need to infect the planet again

Not quite opening up yet.

 

"The sale of outbound group and package travel (from a minimum of a flight + hotel package) was banned by China’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism  from 27 January, 2020, and has not resumed. The ban was last reiterated on 16 November 2022. Outbound travel by individuals for non-essential reasons is strongly discouraged".

I can see the future now, Chinese tourist coming to Thailand, the rate of the infection or virus in Thailand will rise, but the government will not give out the numbers TIT

Reporting of infections has already been lifted. But interestingly, people want all covid restrictions lifted but also want the number of cases to be reported, how does that work!

Certainly agree, but it will happen and when it does, watch out Thailand?????

When that happens and the infected masses do arrive here, I wonder what the "trivial disease/minor ailment" posters will have to say, will it be just nothing then?

When will they unleash their affected masses on the world again? ????

Seems not yet, but inward bound treated and sickness free tourists are welcome to help the economy.

Actually, if you look at photos of public places in Beijing, you'll see that almost no one is out. Now the Chinese people are voluntarily restricting their own movements without the overkill measures previously imposed by the government. I suspect it will be a while before most Chinese travel overseas. The small number who are currently leaving are probably those who plan to stay outside of the country until they can get mRNA vaccinations and until the  pandemic subsides.

The questions is for how much longer? Not looking forward to the Chinese mass invasion of Pattaya. The Russian invasion (of LOS) has already driven hotel rates up, and filled many of the budget hotels.

If I remember correctly a couple days ago an article said a town outside of Shanghai had 1 million Covid cases a day. That should keep most people from going there and hopefully no outbound flights..
