What are the implications of the new COVID requirements for travelers in Thailand?

Community discussions are abuzz with concerns over new COVID-19 travel requirements being implemented in Thailand, particularly in relation to travelers from China. While some view these measures as an expected response to the global situation, others question whether tourists already in Thailand but unvaccinated will receive any visa extensions similar to previous policies. The conversation reflects a mix of skepticism regarding the permanence of the new rules, the potential disparity in treatment between travelers from different countries, and a general apprehension among expats and travelers.
