Thailand exempts vaccinated visitors from quarantine

Thailand

Thailand's coronavirus task force said that Bangkok will resume exemption from quarantine for vaccinated arrivals from February 1, in response to the slowdown in coronavirus infections.

Health Ministry spokeswoman Taweesin Wisanuyothin said in a briefing that the policy requires visitors to take a "Test & Go" test upon arrival and again five days later, agreeing to track their whereabouts.

The authorities also extended the hours in which restaurants are allowed to serve alcoholic beverages until 11 pm. However, bars and nightclubs will remain closed.

Thailand has reported 2.3 million infections and nearly 22,000 deaths linked to the coronavirus overall. About two-thirds of the population was vaccinated and 15 percent received a booster dose.
