Will KOW allow none vaxxed travellers restriction free entry anytime soon?
Will KOW allow none vaxxed travellers restriction free entry anytime soon?
In essence hat's what I'm wondering.
Now we know that the vaccination does not stop transmission, will Cambo or any other SEA country take the lead by lessening the travel restrictions any time soon?

No one knows, decisions like these are often announced with effect immediately, late at night on a Saturday, but usually take a couple weeks to filter out to the airlines.
Quarantine period for unvaxxed is only 7 days now.

I think its coming. The hysteria seems to be abating. You dont protect anybody but yourself with the jabs.

Yes, but not this year.
Assuming there isn't a more pathogenic variant, by 2023 most countries will quietly abandon all these rules. It has mutated to little more than a mild flu and nobody is buying the fear anymore. Maybe it will just go to a tick-box on the immigration form.
There is the issue of the anti-vaxers too. They had their views and stuck to their guns (no pun intended) and that debate is now moot. To continue to hamper their freedom of travel has no scientific validity and is more based on resentment and spite that they refused to do as they were told by their respective governments.

Unless their unvaxxed status makes them more susceptible to serious illness in a country without the ability to treat well. It’s not so moot then. Isn’t their a difference between the vaxxed and unvaxxed ability or likelyhood to spread the virus as well. I could have sworn I read something to that effect.Doc67 wrote: ↑Mon May 02, 2022 9:24 am Yes, but not this year.

Well, they would say that wouldn't they? Give the vaccinated people a reason to resent them.Apollo91881 wrote: ↑Mon May 02, 2022 10:36 amUnless their unvaxxed status makes them more susceptible to serious illness in a country without the ability to treat well.

Anyway, Omicron is everywhere and whether you are vaccinated or not, the chances are you've had it or will get it this year. It's virtually impossible to avoid. And a natural infection is better than any of those vaccines. I've had Covid twice, despite 3 shots of Sinovac.
The justification of the unvaccinated getting ill and being a burden with Omicron is very low. It would be far better that Thailand insist on a current fully paid up medical insurance policy for all tourists to cover road accidents and other illness'. I think they already do for expat residents?
Cambodia should do it too.

But it's a bloody good business. Just crossed into Vietnam and at the border everyone crossing has to do a $10 test assuming there is about few thousand people crossing daily that's a lot of T money for the customs and immigration boys at the border. Why would they possibly even consider getting rid of that?
