After 3 boosters, still caught covid.  There is a clue there too!

It's not always mild. I had a really nasty bout of it about 2 months ago, three weeks after my 5th vaccine.

And there!

Do people still get normal colds & flus or is it ALL covid now?

And, how can we tell the difference?

 

I don't mind a cold or flu but have heard bad things about covid - I don't think I've had it though tbh but then again, I haven't been out of my apartment since it all kicked off. 

You can tell the difference with a positive antigen test (49 baht).

Oh OK Thanks.  How often do you have to take them?

I guess it would add up if you have to take them all the time and don't have a boss to pay for them.  Is there any other way to tell the difference?

I wish people / the Thai media would stop this panic mongering . My wife and I happen to be back in Europe till the 22nd June and I can assure you noone here gives a damn about Covid . Facts : it's not a pandemic or even an epidemic anymore . Vaccinations only make sense for the extremely vulnerable .

Just live your lives ,all . 

Hi, My wife and I are also in Europe, in Spain we are flying to Portugal on 27th June with Ryan Air.

On their Covid information page it lists countries that are currently prohibited from entering Portugal it also lists countries that if travelling from you have to satisfy certain requirements like vaccination certification etc. 

Maybe other parts of Europe differ in attitude.

You can buy the antigen test kits at all pharmacies. You take the self-administered test only if you are sick and you think you might have a covid infection.  Total costs will be low. 49 baht per kit is hardly expensive.
