Thailand is set to resume its quarantine exemption scheme for fully vaccinated foreign visitors in February, its coronavirus taskforce said Thursday, as concerns about the highly transmissible Omicron variant subside.

The country’s “Test and Go” quarantine waiver program is now able to resume due to the low number of deaths and hospitalizations caused by the virus, task force spokesperson Taweesilp Visanuyothin said.
