The paperwork is often not dated or timed (my local Tesco and Big C) and where do you think it all goes and who is collating all that data in thousands of locations, the answer is nobody. It's a meaningless and stupid public relations exercise, nothing more. That is with paper trace. however QR code should be different if applied good. But they only need to collect the data if a person with corvid is found. Then they need to talk to that person get where he / she was and from there on do the work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post doctormann Posted May 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2020 I don't particularly like the idea of being tracked but using a false name and phone number is not sensible. The numpties running the show here do not seem to be very bright but surely they are not so stupid as to not realise when spoof names are being entered into a register - always assuming that anyone actually checks! If D Trump, B Obama, V Putin, B Johnson, Y Bear et al have been shopping all over Thailand then it doesn't take a genius to spot that something is not kosher. It might well end up as having to scan the QR code, with no alternative - or no entry to the mall, or wherever' 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
