Rants, Stupid Shit and Coronavirus in Thailand

[QUOTE=Golds;2679811]In these high end massage places can you fuck them without condom?[/QUOTE]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.

[QUOTE=Explorer8939;2678679]I am looking for a link to the official announcement that pre-departure RT-PCR tests are no longer required on April 1.[/QUOTE]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.

[QUOTE=BroComplex;2679860]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.[/QUOTE]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.

[QUOTE=OlderMan4U;2679896]…And the United States continues to require a negative PCR-RT test only one day before flying back to the USA.[/QUOTE]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.

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.

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

I am sharing a Test and Go room with a Thai lady this time.

[QUOTE=BananaBoi;2681194]Free Thai lady courtesy of the SHA+ hotel I hope.[/QUOTE]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.

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.

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?

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?

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.

This is the list of hospitals and clinics in Thailand that are recognized for providing tests for US return: [URL]https://service.dmsc.moph.go.th/labscovid19/indexen.php[/URL].

A lady friend is recovering from Omicron, when can I safely bang her?

If so, try contacting them via their official channels, via Contact Us link.

I'd just apply again. I believe they don't process them until near departure date. Mine and a friend's passes were approved 2 days before flight. Another friend got worried when he was a week out and still no reply, so he just contacted them and received his next day.

Do not reply to any email from Thailand Pass. There was news about its database being hacked and email addresses of applicants being stolen. I still get a spear-phishing email every other week from supposedly Thailand Pass, stating that there's something wrong with my submitted documents and that I need to provide my DoB and passport number. Yeah, right. I've been in LOS for a few months, so I don't think I will be needing ThPass services. Nice try.
