Well lets' remember that all farang don't adopt the same attitudes, people are individuals whether they are farang or whatever. Bottom line is that it's a personal choice! If anybody chooses to not mix too much with people who are adamant they don't want an inoculation or are not yet inoculated, or whatever is personal choice, which they are entitled to. Let's not forget some people in the community are elderly or have other medical conditions which push them to be more careful about exposing themselves to any chance of Covid 19 infection. I have a serious COPD (severe permanent recurring bronchitis condition) with severe permanent lung scaring and when the severe painful coughing occurs it brings on painful shortness of breath. I need to be very careful to avoid infection from the common cold, the flu and now Covid 19, the end result could easily be quick death. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is needed to show proof of yellow fever and flu vaccinations to enter most countries in West Africa. Correct and even Thailand ask many South American countries to show a Yellow Fever Certificate booklet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As more countries open borders to the vaccinated and digital vaccine passports evolve and get international support, things will change. Sure, right now the whole approach to Vaccine Passports or whatever name will be used is a global 'work in progress' and surely it would be better if there's a standard but very professional and secure system. Given modern technology seems to me that using digital methodologies would be well worthwhile and could provide security and speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnHans Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I already have one of these, it's exactly what i have. Its standard issue in Thailand for many years if you get any kind of vaccination. Nothing new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't think there were enough vaccines in the 1950s to make it an issue back then. But they've piled them on since. In the 50s there were vaccines for whooping cough, tuberculosis, diphtheria, smallpox and polio being administered to children. Late 60's saw the vaccine for measles which by early 70s had morphed into measles,mumps & rubella(MMR). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diphtheria vaccine wasn't commonly given to kids in the UK. I had mumps and measles .... no need for a vaccine after the event. Polio and Whooping cough were about it. And Tetanus.

So what they are talking about is a vaccine passport for Thais (and I guess resident foreigners) who want to travel. This says nothing about how those travelers will be treated when they return to Thailand. As of now - quarantine! In addition, it says nothing about travelers who want to visit Thailand and carry one of these from their home country. From what they have been saying - quarantine! So essentially, this article says nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can think of only one thing these book could be used for, and that would be to set up "safe zones." For example, a restaurant could be a "safe zone" if all their employees had been vaccinated (had one of these books), and they required all customers to show they have a book. In that case, the restaurant could operate "normally," without any mask requirements. But, all those with a book showing they have had a vaccination should still be required to wear a mask in other, non "safe zone" places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, good point, not everyone has a phone. I think a system that uploads and encrypts the vaccine data onto your phone, so you won't need an internet connection, will emerge.
