Phuket, the island destination touted as the Savior of Thailand's now non existent tourism industry turn out to be another hot bed of the Covid pandemic with authorities scrambling around not knowing what to do while all the while planning to bring ten of thousands of foreign tourists to this destination ...

The only order he should be doing now is following the lead of other provinces and requiring 14 days quarantine or a negative test before entering the island from all other provinces.

I'm getting confused with  all this on again off again talk. Why travel! You never know if you will be trapped somewhere for 14 days quarantine  if there is a out brake of covidin your area of travel.

If I am reading this correctly and of course liable to change, tourists heading to Phuket after July 1st will not have to quarantine providing can show vaccinated twice, holding a certificate of entry from local embassy and having tested negative within 3 days of arrival. If you live here on a work permit or retirement visa you will require the same documents but still have to go to a Quarantine facilty for 7 days? This implies that tourists won't spread Covid but returning expats more likely to. Or am I reading this incorrectly?

Just had an email from Headstart School Phuket where my daughter goes, one of the teachers who attended the party in Phuket has tested positive. All year 6 children now being given the test plus most other teachers there. The school is closed now but the teacher who attended the party was at school teaching for one day before they tested positive.
