The paradigm has shifted. It now a case of the percentage of those first and second dose vaccinated. That is the decisive factor for the future. That is what will make people decide about Thailand.

Ok so you’re a fully vaccinated tourist from, let’s say, the UK. What would make you ‘decide’ to take a holiday in Thailand? Perhaps because you’re 5 times safer living in Thailand than the UK? After all there are nearly 50,000 infections per day in the UK compared to under 10,000 in Thailand even though double vaccination rates are more than twice as high in the UK. But then you’re fully vaccinated and PCR negative, so why should you worry where you go in the world?

You're making the mistake many make and is exactly why the government here publish it like this.

There are not 10.000 infections in Thailand per day.

There are 10.000 infections out of the 35.000-40.000 tests they do. That is approx 1 in 4.

Same for the UK. 50.000 positives out of approx 1 million tests, that is 1 in 50.

So actually 12 times less safe here.

Obviously the first thing i look at after I've had a scan at whether they have a military Government and what their yewman rights record is like.
