Rants, Stupid Shit and Coronavirus in Thailand

[Explorer8939]

The government is considering further reductions in requirements for entry into Thailand, such as eliminating the one day quarantine and the RT-PCR test. They are looking at implementation in May.

I'm finally in the very initial stages of a trip to Thailand in July. Problem is I was diagnosed with Covid a few days ago. My concern, other than a fast recovery, is I could possibly test positive for months. Has anybody been in this situation? Is it possible to avoid 10 days in hospital quarantine?

I have applied for the Travel Pass, about 2 weeks ago:

Within 30 minutes I have received- Insurance (paid with receipt and policy) Test and Go Hotel voucher (and even directions from the hotel for arrival), have submitted Hotel Voucher, Vax info for 3 shots,. No word from Travel Pass. Upon inquiry I get "Info not registered" and then I get a solicitation from "consultants" who can clear Travel Pass. Quickly, guaranteed, for about 2500 BT. Any comments, advise would be appreciated, I do have 6 weeks before arrival, which could possibly be the reason for delay, but who knows?

Can anyone recommend a reputable rapid antigen test center in Pattaya that the airlines will accept at BKK before flying back to the USA? I think it's either PCR or antigen accepted and antigen seems faster results.

Free Thai lady courtesy of the SHA+ hotel I hope.

No, I took her to South America for 3 months.

She came back to Pattaya, and went out drinking the first night. Now she has Covid.

I am back in Thailand, and awaiting the results of the Covid test.

Not quite accurate. The USA requires a viral test, which is less restrictive than only allowing RT-PCR test. The headache is that you must follow a certain process, simply doing an informal at home test is insufficient unless it includes certain documentation.

For my return I'll be using a hotel sponsored RT-PCR test, which is the same process as used on arrival. Expensive, yes. Easy, yes.

Ah okay, thanks for the clarification. I'm not too bright about the various tests. But yes you do have to follow some guidelines including getting proper documentation and all.

It's still not something I can risk with my current job.

…And the United States continues to require a negative PCR-RT test only one day before flying back to the USA.

Are you trying to get super gonorrhea or something. Those massage girls fuck multiple men a day I wouldn't fuck them without a condom.

Is this intel from your personal experience and testimonials from other guys you know who frequent those high end venues?

Because if it is, it seems like you are saying those top of the line stunner girls fuck bareback routinely and with virtually every customer. How else could they get the STDs you suggest a customer would avoid by wearing a condom?

If so, great! I might even be up for booking or taking one if those top of the line stunners even at something like 10,000 baht. Once in a while anyway.

Do I need to discuss it with them upfront or should I just count on the stunner I choose to simply go along with it without my mentioning it.

Frankly, I have not yet seen the That stunner who would be worth 10,000 baht for Short Time or Long Time unless BBFS+CIP was enthusiastically agreed to upfront.

I am looking for a link to the official announcement that pre-departure RT-PCR tests are no longer required on April 1.

I would rather take the pre-departure RT-PCR test and forgo the two in-country. The way I look at it, it's better to test positive before getting on the flight and having to cancel / reschedule, than test positive in Thailand get stuck in miserable quarantine conditions for 10-14 days.

And the United States continues to require a negative PCR-RT test only one day before flying back to the USA.

In these high end massage places can you fuck them without condom?

As of yesterday the legal change had yet to be published in the Royal Gazette. It's still at the level of "politicians have agreed".

I am told the new rules will be published on Monday.

How did I leave Macau off my list of favorite destinations? I do not know.

From 2009 to Covid, I never travelled to Asia without spending 5 week nights (Sunday to Friday) in Macau at the beginning or the end of my Asian trip. Super expensive, you betcha, but my favorite Saunas had the best selection of Chinese Mainland, Korean, and Taiwanese girls anywhere! The NE Asian talent was so good that Viet girls were considered entry level (the least expensive) or they were consigned to thigh massage (hand job) duties.

In one of my favorite saunas pretty little Indonesian girls were given the sole job of helping customers disrobe. They apparently were not considered shag worthy. 555. Anyway, Macau had top quality girls, great service, super high prices, and great Cantonese food. It was one of my favorite destinations. I pray that the Saunas survive Covid! So here is my revised list of favorite watering holes:

1. BKK.

2. Pat.

3. Sao Paulo.

4. Jakarta.

5. MNL*.

6. Macau.

7. Singapore.

8. Phnom Penh.

9. RJ.

10. Yangon.

11. AC.
