    I have a question which I didn't see listed. What happens, exactly, if I test positive on the first test in BKK?

    No tourists will go to Thailand the way the situation is now.

    Tbf it must be a great time for expats in Thailand right now.
    I wouldn't return either, if I never had to.

    You will be quarantined and retested until you are given the all clear. Probably in a quarantine facility or hospital/hospitel.

    Something new every day.

    now it is being reported on PBS
    " Thais arriving from 45 low risk countries and Hong Kong to be treated like citizens of those countriesOctober 30, 2021 "

    "She said these Thais will be treated like other people arriving in Thailand from the 45 low risk countries and Hong Kong who, however, must have been fully inoculated with recognised vaccines at least 14 days before their arrival and have passed a RT-PCR test no more than 72 hours before boarding their flights. Foreign tourists, however, must have at least three million baht health insurance cover during their stay in Thailand. "
    https://www.thaipbsworld.com/thais-a...ose-countries/

    so what is it? $50 k or 3 million bht which is $90 k coverage.

    Thailand is beginning to give me a headache,

    Am I reading this right?

    If you're here stay here. If you're elsewhere stay there.
    This craziness is going to go on for a very long time.

    As AO said way back, the fuckwits can't even get schools open. Now the no bullshit absolutely sure I Nov school opening for 2 granddaughters has been changed to a new date to be determined.

    You can tell she's reading off an old songsheet as it's 63 countries now and Covid insurance up to $50K.

    The Bt3M is the new requirement for some O-A holders.
