Thailand mulls waiving quarantine for vaccinated tourists

BANGKOK, Feb 23 (Bloomberg): Thailand may scrap its two-week mandatory quarantine for foreign visitors with proof of Covid-19 vaccination as the South-East Asian nation seeks to revive its pandemic-hit tourism industry.

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha said on Tuesday his government will consider allowing visitors who can produce a vaccination certificate to skip the quarantine and authorities will come up with a plan to track them during their stay in the country.
