I went back to Thailand on 18.02.2022 for a 4 week holiday, it was the time when you had to have an actual negativ COVID Test for entry, after arrival had to do a COVID Test on day 1 and day 5.

My COVID test on day 1 turned out POSITIVE !!! They wanted to hospitalize me for 6 weeks, even insured via a Thai COVID insurance asked for a $ 6‘000 pre-payment.

I knew it‘s a scam, because I recovered from COVID just less than a month ago. Therefore being infected was impossible. In addition I had 2 self-tests with me, testing myself after I got the information I would be positive. Both tests (of different brand) showed a negative result.

But it was clear when hospitalized I‘would be f*cked. So I told them I would not leave the hotel without force, my girlfriend would record it, publish it on YouTube.

They asked me to Email my positive COVID test from 6 weeks ago, which I did. The same evening a nurse appeared to my hotel room, took blood. I asked her what for and she answered it would be a test showing if I‘m dangerous for others or not. The only problem: such a test didn‘t exist.

Anyway, the next morning I‘ve been informed I would be free to leave, but would have to make the 2nd COVID test on day 5 anyway.

Of course I was worried when the nurse did the test on day 5. She saw I‘m worried and told me ‚don‘t worry, even the test is positive you are negative‘.

That happened on 23rd of February, 2022. The next day we are laying at the pool of SGS when I received the information Ukraine is bombed by ruZZia.

As a result be stayed in Thailand not 4 weeks but 3 1/2 months before returning back to Europe.
