    Uh oh, 2070 cases today. That's quite the jump.

    Yeah, Phuket isn't opening in July for anyone still hoping... Be happy if you get there Fall of 2022.

    a447 certainly won’t be - the Perth drawbridge goes up more often than a Pattaya money boy goes down - http://www.watoday.com.au/national/w...23-p57lwb.html

    It's just the third time. Last time was 5 days and this time is 3 days. That's why we have had no community transmission since early last year and life has gone on as normal here during the pandemic. We've all been eating out, going to the movies, attending sporting events, etc. as per usual.

    It is why at the state election a month ago the once powerful opposition party only won 2 of the 59 seats in parliament. They foolishly advocated opening up our borders.

    I've just come home my staycation at the casino - had to cut my holiday 2 days short. But it doesn't matter as I don't mind staying at home for 3 days.

    But if I was staying at the Ambiance in Pattaya or the Tarntawan in Bangkok, I'd be mightily pissed.

    Somebody better tell the foreign embassy's, because their websites are still telling people they can travel to Phuket starting July 1st Quarantine-Free.

    In the covid era it is unwise to book that far in advance.

    If I were planning to make that trip, I'd keep an eye on things, then do some more detailed research & then think about visa applications in June.

    The FDA just lifted the "Pause" on the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

    Hopefully this vaccine will be making its way to private hospitals in Thailand soon. At least my fingers are crossed.

    As far as the Governments Vaccine Plans for the general population are concerned, there is sill nothing concrete...just paper-thin excuses and weasel-words.

    Don't expect any meaningful change to that for at least 6 months.

    Unfortunately, Covid vaccines aren't available via Amazon Prime at the moment, so takes a while to get them in.

    Laos got 65 cases yesterday, so outbreak has begun there now...

    Surely you would take any of the "western" vaccines if available ? If not, why the preference for J&J ?

    Any of the western vaccines would work for me.

    Bad press for J&J in the Washington Post. Not quite as bad as the statistics about the number of Russians who distrust Sputnik V but not very encouraging for poor old Dodgems - https://www.washingtonpost.com/healt...ee8_story.html
