Popular Post webfact Posted October 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 27, 2020 Two quarantined foreigners in hotel with infected French woman have COVID-19 Commuters with facemasks to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus walk to a train station at rush hour in Bangkok on August 20, 2020. Two foreigners, in quarantine at a hotel in Samut Prakan province where a 57-year French woman was found to be infected with COVID-19, developed symptoms and tested positive for the disease on October 15th, according to Dr. Sophon Iamsirithavorn, Director of the General Communicable Diseases Division today (Tuesday). He admitted, however, that health investigators are still unable to determine whether the three cases are linked or how and where they became infected, adding that the hotel, which is used as an alternative state quarantine facility, may not be up to the required standard. The French woman developed coronavirus-related symptoms when she arrived on Samui Island with her husband and son, after she had completed her quarantine at a hotel in Samut Prakan.

Popular Post RichardColeman Posted October 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 27, 2020 It appears that Thai quarantine is the most expensive place in Thailand to get covid - remember that when booking your hoopy return !! You might die purely for quarantining - not exactly a TAT money spinner 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest the people selecting the hotels to be used for quarantine are not up to the required standard. They most probably put personal gain before the health of the people. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Oldie Posted October 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) This is a very bad start of this quarantine idea. And now they think about keeping the quarantined persons there for a longer quarantine period than 14 days. Happy holidays... But who will pay for all this? And what happens if other people have booked this quarantine hotel and the rooms are blocked now because the people can't leave after the 14 days? Perhaps good to get such problems at the beginning of this experiment. Edited October 27, 2020 by Crossy Fixed (removed) the quote. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzra Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 If Covid will get up again in Thailand it will be almost 100% due to theses A-holes who comes in already infected and to the even bigger idiots who allowed them to board a plane... 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JusticeGB Posted October 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2020 Special high prices for a quarantine prison hotel room that actually gives you covid19. Great advertisement for TAT. 3 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lilyofthevalley Posted October 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2020 Seems very convenient, that more and more people getting covid a day before leaving quarantine. You are allowed to fly only after you test negative on a covid test. Then Arrive to the quarantine the hotel justifies their extortionate costs, 2 more covid tests and 16 days of detention, and the day before to leave Hôtel the hospital wants their piece of the person pie and they get covid! Then off you go to hospital where u can stay until u recover... They bow before their £$€¥£¥$€ God and it has no mercy. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was hinted at before that the gym within the facility showed contamination,anyone using the same equipment could then be in trouble. Poor hygiene in Thailand who'd have thought! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing, considering the number of quarantine hotels and rooms compared to the dribble of tourists !

ukrules Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 When these two new cases were found to be infected - where were they? The 'French woman' left quarantine on October 15th, which leaves plenty of room for the others to have been released from quarantine depending on when they arrived.

Let's assume there is Corona in one of these hotels and all the people there might now be on an extended quarantine (including perhaps staff). Will they allow new people to move in there?

ronaldo0 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 She left ages ago ! Obviously not cleaning enough and quite frankly if you can’t hack staying in your room for two weeks after paying money for the privilege then you shouldn’t be coming . No need to leave the room to go exercise or walk around . It’s two weeks , not two years !

Not everyone is a fat slob who can easily sit in front of their TV 24/7.... Exercise is good for the mind and body - when people are ‘room bound’ in ASQ it makes perfect sense for people to be allowed to sue the gym and open spaces. I’ve done two weeks ASQ - it was a long time and I while I didn’t really feel a great need to leave the room, I can see how others might. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people can just sit in silence for hours contemplating and relaxing and are extremely fit and slim . Some might find it boring or driving them mad but a lot of people would be happy with utter peace and quiet . ???????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They shouldn't have been allowed in the gym. Quarantine regs state that you must stay in your room for the first 7 days and then be allowed out of your room for one hour per day. You cannot use pools or gyms during that time. Obviously, in some hotels, the rules have gone out of the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammieuk1 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 With north of 20% of all the countries "reported" cases turning up in ASQ I would say don't bother trying it your money and your life is highway robbery to far even for these fools ????
