What is this all about? It’s clear that those who have been vaxed twice last year have no/minimal immunity remaining. Some knowledgeable researchers would argue that these people (those vaxed with lapsed ‘immunity’) are even more susceptible to being infected by the virus. I am tempted to believe that these new entry regulations are being put in place to give the appearance of taking meaningful action … to make those in power look good to voters. Any thought that these measures will stop or reduce Covid are delusional. The fact that the regulations don’t apply to Thai citizens tends to add further strength to this argument.
Exactly, giving the appearence of taking meaningful action without angering chinese officials.
That's it.

Thailand. EVERY flight from China will have 50+% of its passengers infected judging by last week's data.
Actually every country in the world js accepting covid positive people because there is no more testing, same as they accept people with influenza.

I predict that too. ????
Thai pass, mandatory mask wearing everywhere outsode the house, temperature checks entering places, booster and more vaccines for all the new varients, restricted bar opening times, dirty looks and avoiding anyone who is not Thai for fear they are disease ridden, etc etc. So boring. If this happens again I will leave. I can't stand another round of that stupidity and political <deleted>!
This is not happening, there is a limit to stupidity.

Well, Thailand is not imposing restrictions on the Chinese, therefore the virus will spread in Thailand...
Many countries might follow India's example
The virus is already in Thailand since 2020, we are talking about Covid.

Great decision by Thailand, it makes no sense to ask for a test since Covid is endemic in every country of the planet.

I am no fan of the Chinese and criticise them continually, especially as I am stuck here. Talk about dramatisation or simple scare mongering. 500 million in the first few months! Jeez.
Please share those links to what you read. I cant wait.
500 millions, basically more than 1/3 of China population dying of covid which has a more than 99% survival rate.
Imagine believing something so absurd lol

Funny thin about all this is that everyone I know puts on a mask when going out, practices social distancing and uses the free alcohol gel available in the shops and malls, and then go straight back to sit with there other dozen friends around the pool with no masks, no distancing and all eating nuts off the same bowl !
Because it's all a charade, a show.
Most people just got used to do it as a daily routine

You've been banging on for a long time about how masks interferes with your life, do what you wNt but leave the folks who have no problems with masks out of your agenda.
It's literally you who replied to my post.
I have no problem with what you do whatsoever.

I got 2 jabs but only because I had to fly abroad, that's the only reason not because I thought it was useful.

I came back from the Canaries last week....didn't need to wear a mask on the plane even.
Looks like it will be a fair few months before Thailand is "properly" open then?
I was hoping to go to Thailand this October, was hoping by then the Thai pass etc. would be done with,even if it is, would be a right pain having to wear a mask...particularly outside and at beaches etc! Madness!
In Pattaya,Phuket,Samui most people are not wearing masks anymore.
Especially foreigners, you'll be fine.
In Bangkok it's still being used by almost everyone though

Currently, International Health Regulations specify that a dose of yellow fever vaccine is valid for 10 years. Therefore, at present, travelers to countries with a yellow fever vaccination entry requirement must have received a dose of yellow fever vaccine within the past 10 years.
Totally the same vaccine

There's always hope, but as long as the virus is around, I think some countries will keep their entry requirements for a while... Just look at China, a relatively small number of cases and deaths, and they lock down half the country and economy.
That's only China, because they are the only country in the world pursuing zero covid.

It doesn't matter if you think your mask "protected you", you'll get covid anyway sooner or later.
The only way you won't catch it if you isolate yourself from the world forever.

Why not just follow the UK and pretend it doesn’t exist, because that’s going so well.
Yes it's going great.
That's the smartest thing to do, closing bar at 11 am or "Thailand pass" it's not going to stop covid.

Chinese won't come to holiday in Thailand, they face 2 or 3 weeks quarantine in quarantine facilities when they go back to China.
Flights are super expensive if you even can find any available.
China will be isolated from the world until they drop their nonsensical zero covid madness.

WHO has proven to be totally useless during this pandemic.
Also, vaccination rates are close to 90% in those countries.
Should wait for what?Covid is not going away anytime soon.

99% of world's countries have no such a thing as this "Thailand Pass".
It makes no sense and it's not following any science

Swiss Man Who ‘Kicked’ Doctor Loses Visa, 2nd Swiss Man Too Could Do So
in Thailand News
Posted · Edited by Anton9
This man is obviously a jerk and he probably deserves to lose his visa.
What I don't understand it's why such a minor incident has been making headlines for weeks, if a foreigner did this in europe it won't not even be in the last paragraph of the smallest local town newspaper.
