Hello Everyone!

I’ve a question regarding the health insurance covering Covid. Does it have to cover something specifically ? Most of the ones I see cover me in case I get the virus before travelling and once there with medical expenses. Is this okay ?

If anyone lives in the UK and has a good option accepted by the Thai authorities please let me know 😊 thank you 🙏🏼

OP
Hey everyone. So pacific cross will be okay for my insurance ?? I am having doubts that the one I have will not cover me as needed. I read a lot of comments on how strict they are. I am afraid I will have to change my insurance.. all of this is very confusing for me.
