Asia is on the edge of starting, albeit very slowly, to open up.
I still suspect most of us can't easily go anywhere this year - maybe December is possible. For me and my family, it is tough to imagine going anywhere if we have lengthy quarantine on either or both sides. I can handle a few days here and there but even a week on either side means 2 weeks of a holiday stuck in a hotel with 5 people.
That is worse than just staying home.
I assume soon we can find a place to travel to without quarantine - USA for example.
So then the next issue is coming home when the family has a mix of visas and 2 kids can't get vaccinated. I assume that this also will have rules - at least for the return to Singapore part of any trip. I sincerely hope a mostly vaccinated family can return to Singapore with some ease.
I guess we wait for the rules.
However what I am keeping an eye on his how the brand of vaccine you take will be factored in.
As the world scales the vaccine rollouts with different types manufactured in different locales - how we will ensure that someone who is vaccinated is legit?
I wonder though what the sticks will be if you don't get the jab?
- Can't board planes? - Can't renew a passport, re-entry permit or work-permit? - Can't enter an office?
I think at some point lots of governments might have to move into enforcement mode if we need to get everyone vaccinated. Interested to see how this all plays out.
