WHO (World Health Organization has recently released a statement saying "NO RISK for travellers who
wish to visit other countries". They also DO NOT recommend screenings at entries and exits points of
countries, although some countries are screening people anyway (by heat sensitive camera equipment)
to be extra cautious.
Anyway... NO RISK!
Woohoo!!!!!
Direct Quote from their FAQs pages: "Travellers can protect themselves and others by following simple
prevention practices that apply while travelling and in daily life."

The Government has just announced free Tourist Visas for people whose countries require them to get a
visa before entering Thailand. While most countries (Australia, N.Z., Hong Kong, Canada, Germany, UK,
Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland and many many more) get a 30 day stamped visa automatically upon
arrival, some citizens of certain countries do not, and have to pay and receive a stamped Visa in their
passport prior to travel.
This free Tourist Visa scheme is now operating to help increase the amount of tourism in Thailand. This
also helps people who wish to stay longer than 30 days in Thailand without doing a visa run. Up to 60 days
visa can now be taken for free at your local Thai consulate, for long staying guests (which we always have
many!).
Click Here to see a list of Countries that do not require a Visa (citizens receive visa in passport upon
arrival at airport).
