The new policy does not apply to visitors from Africa. They remained in quarantine for two weeks, due to concerns about other variants of the virus by the Thai government.

The head of the health sector in this country is expected that after October, Thailand can relax restrictions and completely exempt from quarantine. However, this condition only applies if, at that time, 70% of health-care workers who are at high risk of infection were vaccinated with Covid-19.

Currently, Thailand still limits flights to this country, strictly enforces mandatory entry and quarantine policies for foreigners. The country now records more than 26,000 infections and 85 deaths.
