Anyway i am not ready to let anybody know where i go and what i do and i am sure the risk is 1000 far higher to be contacted for some ''promotions'' from the shops using the data than for someone infected by the virus in the shop at the same time than me (65 millions of Thais, 56 deads so far in 3 months, i am not that paranoid sorry) Then for now i avoid every shop where the data collect is mandatory anyway the malls are not a necessity at all for me, they were closed during 2 months and i have hardly noticed the closure According to a highly respected professional teacher in Esan ,things are not what they seem to be.They are staying at home and keeping their children at home.They say 2 scared 2 go out Another source from Bumingrad hostpital said more than the official death count went out the back door daily. Deaths are being listed as pneumonia.Overseas newspaper says los Is covering up truth and the true death toll more likely up to 50000 plus. Otherwise why all the fuss at 7 eleven and malls.I think that the Chinese are driving this government and they want to open up the flood gates of tourism,a potential disaster .

Peterw42 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I am over 60 years old, overweight, not at my peak of fitness and I have been a smoker, so clearly in the high risk category of actually dying from covid. Unlike most, I actually want to be informed if the customers of my local 7/11 or shopping mall are dropping dead. Absolute stupidity to be leaving a false name or number, avoiding the check in. The same as a Hurricane, Tsunami, bush fire warning, I would actually appreciate the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to turn on mobile data to get connected to internet. You don't need Line to scan the QR-code, just a QR-scanner downloaded from Play store. I don't have any special internet package, just using phone for normal use. Does that mean I have to pay to use QR code by turning on mobile data? Then might as well write. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand your concern however you could also, being in a at risk group, avoid to go to the malls if you feel insecure, do a covid test and don't wait an hypothetic call from a dodgy application to inform you about the presence or not of someone infected in the same area as you, I don't see the benefit to bother millions of people with silly procedures everyday except to reassure an handfull of hypochondriacs and for the governement to give the illusion to do something 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every shop that I have been into since this started, and others seen on tv and YouTube, you and others have to sanitize your hands first plus temp check, then sign in, and had more sanitizer on the desk with the pens. Pretty low risk when people sanitize their hands before and after using the pens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqwakvfr Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 It looks like S. Korea is following Thailand’s lead because Bar and nightclubs will be required to adopt a QR code-based system to keep track of visitors following a resurgence in coronavirus infections in Seoul's party district of Itaewon. Tracking movements of people will be the most direct way to deal with Covid 19 outbreaks in the future. it will be the fastest way to communicate with those who may have been exposed. It appears in S. Korea anyone could enter and exit bars and nightclubs and it was impossible to track everyone who had been exposed to the one person who visited five bars and clubs in one night. Dude got around? I expect when the “higher” risk places are allowed to open in June a QR Code scan or actually writing in names and phone#’s will be mandatory. So going to a movie, getting a traditional massage and getting a tattoo will probably require a QR Code Scan to enter and then exit. For better or worse it feels like 1984 in 2020. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a reliable source for your information about the reopen of the ''higher'' risk places in June? AFAIK there is not any date yet decided by the authorities for open these venues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today, they now have the above PLUS the new data collection QR code system as well. I told the girl (same girl every day, every hour for weeks) I don't/can't do QR code, so had to sign in with name and mobile number (same pen and pad used by dozens). And sign out again. So now the data collectors have a fictitious mobile number for Mr Mickey Mouse in my locale. That's pretty selfish, They are collecting data for a reason, you idiot, to save lives ! ! ! We are all slightly inconvenienced for 20 seconds. SO WHAT ! ! ! 20 seconds! Ha! A group of 10 or more standing shoulder to shoulder in a small space all fiddling with phones trying to get the QR code app, or signing into the book! Yes I would be an idiot to think this procedure is saving the spread of CV19. 20 seconds to buy a drink.and 5+ minutes signing in and out of the shop! Duh! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh thank Buddha (and the other ones...exept 1..., lol ) It turns out that only 2 of the 4 local 7/11s have the QR code system. And as for the verbal abusers on the forum regarding social responsibility and tracking/tracing, well how does that work when the much larger Lotus just 50 metres down the road has NO Qcode, no sign in, no gel and no temperature taking! Great system. I bring my own gel and mask. Seems to be working fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
