The director of Vachira Hospital in Phuket told the Thai media that foreign tourists would return to the island in October.

 

Dr Chalermpong Sukhonthaphol said that 80% of the Phuket population would be vaccinated against Covid-19 by September.

 

In October the foreign tourists would be back to start repairing the devastated economy.

 

He noted that Phuket was one of 13 provinces singled out for some of the first batches of vaccine.

 

They got 4,000 doses enough for 2,000 people. 

 

He said that there had been no local infection for 70 days now everyone needed to get the local economy back on its feet.

I got news for you. I dont trust your virus counting.

 

regardless if covid free or not, there are also other reasons this tourist will not return to phuket.

 

this virus has done at least one thing, people will find alternative holiday destinations.

While there is widespread knowledge that any of the vaccines do NOT prevent transmission, just lessen severity of discomfort, I fail to see what difference such vaccinations are going to make. The only way to get through this economic disaster is either to do away with quarantine, or devise some cunning method of relieving tourists of their money without even allowing them into the country ????

That's what they've been aiming to achieve for years, arrive in airport give us your money and now like good little tourists fly back home, we don't really want you here.
