[QUOTE=Breadman;2651932]The old days are gone, there are new rules in this world if you want to find hot young women for sex.

To the sex tourists that don't have vaccination cards, forget it and stay at home. There is a difference!

You need a QR code showing all of your vaccination info and who knows what other info is on there. I got mine from my online hospital account. You send in that QR code so they can check your status. They won't accept a photo of a card. Same with the Cambodia visa, you need to upload your QR code to get your visa to enter the country.
The Public Health Minister Anutin plans to make a proposal to reopen registration for the Test & Go quarantine exemption scheme at the next CCSA general meeting.
Anutin was the minister which initially pushed for the suspension of the Test and Go scheme, so his reversal will probably see the scheme resumed.
The proposed date will become clearer with the political manouverings leading up to the meeting.
Some on here report that Thailand is going overboard with COVID paranoia. Not even close compared to China! In the past 2 days the stories out of China are bizarre. China claims it has detected it's first Omicron case. An office worker caught Omicron from a parcel that was shipped out of Canada, went through USA and Hong Kong, and handled by the office worker who got Omicron. China is now blaming Canada and USA for passing Omicron to them. The entire office building has been under lockdown for a couple of days now and employees have not been able to go home. Today's story is that a pet store worker got COVID. They tested the animals and a couple of hamsters tested positive for COVID. China has decided to cull 2000 animals guilty by association.
[QUOTE=Breadman;2651932] But if your an anti vaxxer your chances of doing your short overseas sex tours might be hard to accomplish. These second and third world countries got hit pretty hard when the pandemic came along and things finally stabilized with the shipments of vaccines. And the people here are lining up for shots without question.[/QUOTE]Why all the nostalgia and hatred? I am not jabbed and have decided not to take the jab, no matter what the cost. I merely adapt. Next week, I am in Eastern Europe.
I believe the Covid stuff will end in about 2 months and the carbon tax stuff will then kick in. I am already making contingency plans for that.
Good on Pattaya's hookers for taking the clot shot. They would not be my first port of call for medical advice. Not that it matters. My mind is made up. No clot shot for me. I am too young and pretty to die.

I'm just trying to look at the long term effects and what I went through to get here. Doom and gloom may be on the horizon. Just can't see everything getting back to normal for years and years. It is now ingrained in many countries that you better be vaccinated or else. Just look at Australia. You read of Omicron going rampant and then burning itself out. That's not happening in Thailand and that's not good news, by wearing masks and continuing with their protocols they are just delaying the burnout. Everywhere you go you see Thai's wearing masks, buying new masks. Following the rules. Just can't see the governments here lessening their control right now.
Now I did hear an interesting theory on what's going on behind the scenes here that might make things clearer. Guy said Thailand is basically run by a a dozen families. The families in the electronic sector are making money hand over fist. The families in the bar scene are losing money hand over fist. And those in charge want to keep them on their knees so they can swoop in and buy property and businesses pennies on the baht. So everyone hoping for a quick turnaround of the gogo bars might have to wait for some time.

My boy just said it is 7 day quarentine for vaxed and 10 day quarentine for unvaxed. So an extra 3 days in jail and non-vaxed can have at it as well. That is Thailand though. A lot of other countries you can just flash them a picture of your card on your phone. Nobody is checking shit with a microscope. Strange thing is that I know a bunch of people vaxed that have covid right now.

I just received an email from one of my regular resorts that stated Test and Go is back starting February 1. A key difference is tourists must stay in an approved hotel on day 1 and day 5, which matches RT-PCR test dates. Other readings imply that medical insurance must cover all possible COVID situations. Take it for what it's worth, maybe not formalized yet.
I'll still wait until I have good confidence that a positive test and mild symptoms will not force me into a miserable quarantine situation. I don't mind quarantine if I test positive and I can be in the hotel that I selected.
[QUOTE=Huacho;2653201]This asshole has been flying all over with a fake vax card and bragging about it.[/QUOTE]Thanks for being a concerned citizen. I also went into Walmart in the USA without a mask like 50 times since they announced people no longer had to wear masks there anymore. They stopped disinfecting those carts though, so they must not give a shit about our health like they claimed they did.
I can't for the life of me understand why you are running all around ISG stressing yourself about whether I get sick or not. Quick, you better run over to the other thread where ET is bragging about fucking 2000 hookers with no condom. He is bound to end up catching something one of these days and you need to jump in to protect him. From your dungeon you should call up the Bangkok Hilton and make a reservation for him for being out in the world where he could possibly get sick.
Meanwhile, my vaccinated girlfriend has Covid and is quarantined in a Peruvian hospital for 15 days because they do not want her to infect anybody, so I can not see her this trip. Meanwhile I am out here with nothing so it is impossible for me to infect anybody with something I do not have. It seems your feeble mind can not understand that. You live in Guatemala, so I am sure that you read Spanish.
Signed, Asshole By Nature.

BTW, my Thai ex-girlfriend wanted to spend a week with me, so she told her customer that she had Covid, to get rid of him for a while.

Signed, Asshole By Nature.[/QUOTE]LOL. Hmm. I wouldn't characterize it as "bragging". Maybe if all of the 1,000's I barebacked were 9+ girls and for free.
No, I was merely replying to a question:
[QUOTE]So my question. If you have a x% of going bareback with a girl which is common. What is the % of in a 12-15 day trip in the Land you end up itching and burning headed to the Pharmacy? LOL.[/QUOTE]And I felt it wouldn't be useful info if I didn't cite truthful figures and results and instead gave the impression that I only barebacked 2-3 girls over a span of 12-15 days once or twice a year as was possibly suggested in the question.

Yes, so you either have to make a reservation with the same designated hotel for a maximum of five nights or check out for three days and then check back in on day 5. The PCR tests are 2200 b per test so add another 4400 b to your budget to start your trip, not including the extra hotel cost for day 5 (and day 1). Not to mention, it's unclear to me if you were to test positive on day 5, does that mean a trip to the hospital for ten days even if asymptomatic? I am hearing many horror stories about starting out your visit in a field hospital.
And they really expect 5 mm to 8 mm tourists by year end with this revised policy?

[QUOTE=Tomasb;2653460]And they really expect 5 mm to 8 mm tourists by year end with this revised policy?[/QUOTE]Only led by the nose mongers will go to LOS under those conditions. There is too much uncertainty. I would expect massive consolidation in the Thai property sector as the rich squeeze out the losers who had a bar or cafe going to keep their ho happy.
Starting back from scratch, they want shopaholic women and planes full of Chinese, who just want to sample Chinese food, Thai style. They are not interested in horny farangs like me, who will be dropping a small fortune next week on some medical procedures I would have got done at Bumrungrad. Fine.
