Coronavirus - Thailand

[Nirish guy]

No such fun, more just glancing at the board whilst sitting here trying to work ( ha as if there's any work out there at present anyway !) - so no, no liquid lunch ( although I intend to rectify that fact very shortly!) - and as for Shady Pines JB - get me booked in forthwith - actually maybe ask them have they got a mental breakdown wing and book me in there just as see if I hear and read much more about lockdowns, Covid (lack) of grants, furlough rules changing every ten minutes and finally here in N.I our F**ked up BREXIT rules kicking in in a few weeks now ( that no one here in Northern Ireland has the SLIGHTEST clue about yet and how they're going get goods from our existing GB suppliers etc) I think I'd happily go with the men in the white coats for a few weeks respite if it was offered !!!

For a modest fee, you could be locked safely away in a quarantine hotel for a couple of weeks.
Elsewhere, I did read about quarantine hotel windows being locked shut above the 6th floor in some hotels, to prevent suicides. So they have even thought of that.
Although, I would have thought jumping from the 5th floor would also leave a virus ridden carcass in quite a mess.

No No sure the virus would know which floor people are on as it only affects people staying on the 6th floor and up anyways - you know just the same way that it only infects people in the UK up to the 23rd of December and then stops and doesn't start infecting again until the 27th ! Thats one smart virus I'll give it that ! Sad thing is that some people ACTUALLY BELIEVE that thats the case too worryingly ! :-(

Thailand classifies COVID-19 as a communicable disease under surveillance, meaning that COVID-19 is treated similar to a seasonal flu virus.

You do not need to present COVID-19 related documents such as certificate of vaccination and COVID-19 test results upon arrival in Thailand.

Mask wearing is a voluntary practice. However, the Ministry of Public Health continues to recommend that you wear a mask in a crowded or badly ventilated places. You may be required to wear a mask in some public buildings.
