Thailand Imposes 14-Day Self-Quarantine For Travellers From 11 Countries Including S’pore

According to CNN, those who are arriving from multiple places in Asia, the Middle East and Europe will be forced to self-quarantine by Thai authorities.

This was allegedly announced by the country’s Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul in a Facebook post on Tuesday.

The Facebook post said that Japan, Germany, South Korea, China “including its special territories Macao and Hong Kong”, Taiwan, France, Singapore, Italy and Iran have been declared as “dangerous communicable disease areas”.

Thus, anyone travelling from these places will be forced to self-quarantine for 14 days “with no exceptions,” according to Charnvirakul.
