: Point well taken. Its been a big struggle for many countries to find the right balance when there are many lives at stake and fears of overruning the capacities of hospitals to prevent deaths during the peaks.
: Based on what I'm hearing and reading, I have a different take on the situation. If tourism doesn't open up in the next months, then about 50% of hotels will go broke and will be forced to go out of business. The government has no choice but to try to avert this economic catastrophe and all the fallout. So your explanation does not seem to correlate with the current reality in Thailand.
: If the only restrictions left are some PCR test and reporting in on the app, then I think a lot of people will go for it. It sure beats the 14 day quarantine.
