Updated requirements for entry to Thailand

If you prefer to

work on "the balance of probabilities"

at a time when the evidence on which those probabilities are based appears to change on a regular basis, that's your business.

The only "probability" I see is that what we know and believe about the situation today will change tomorrow. And the day after that, too.

WHAT THE SCIENTISTS KNOW, AND DON’T KNOW TODAY

Vaccinated people could potentially still get Covid-19 and spread it to others. However, the benefits of relaxing some measures such as testing and self-quarantine requirements for travelers, post-exposure quarantine requirements and reducing social isolation may outweigh the residual risk of fully vaccinated people becoming ill with the virus or transmitting the virus to others. This is presumably what the Thai government is considering when drafting its plan to reopen Phuket.

As far as people who are vaccinated still being able to spread the virus: It’s possible that some people who are fully vaccinated could get Covid-19. The evidence isn’t clear whether they can spread the virus to others. Scientists have made it clear that current research is far from sufficient to claim that vaccinated people cannot spread the virus.

Check the dates, Dodgems. The NYT article is dated April 1 which means it was written during the last week of March. The CDC press release is dated April 2 and is the most up to date advice.

You and a447 need to brush up on Bayes Theorem.

I didn’t realise there was any doubt - except amongst the Conspiracy Theorists. Do you know that between 4 of them in March they made in excess of 250 posts in total, of which almost 20% were devoted to their favourite fantasy? The love that dare not speak its name!

Can you give us the average word count of each post, too?

Lol

This one's dated April 2nd: https://www.yahoo.com/news/vaccinate...121235173.html

Maybe you're going to sit up all night monitoring the news, in the event a more recent announcement is made which could save you from losing face again!

If you don't know what you're talking about, just take the cotton out of your ears - and stick it in your mouth.

Have you had enough "Negative Attention" today to treat your symptoms?

A few months ago I revised that as too optimistic and suggested Q3, 2021 was possible, Q4 more likely. And here we are. .

Not yet we aren’t ....plenty can happen before Q3 or Q4
