You might face the quarantine entering Thailand and again when you return to China.
Wash hands and don't travel.

@lemon lover: One has to respect the enormity of the N95 mask problem. At 900K per day, it will take more than 2 years to produce one mask for half of China's population. One can only hope the epidemic will slow.
Trump's announcement of 33 million masks on hand in the US is not good news. It highlights a dire situation.

About mid Feb, there was some movement harmonize COVID-19 stats. As a result data became more consistent over sources. You can look for the reason this was done. China's population is expressed in 万。
The $15 masks above WERE selling for $1 each at Walgreens drugs but have sold out. Capitalism and the free market at work.
Masks: Understanding that wearing masks is required and is a good practice, the efficacy of masks depends on how well they fit. The better the mask fits the more effective.
BTW, there is a shortage of masks in the US as it seems they are produced largely in China. CDC officials are saying masks should be reserved for medical personnel. Trump has mentioned the US has a supply of 33 million masks on hand.
On Amazon: "3M Particulate Respirator 8210, N95, Smoke, Dust, Grinding, Sanding, Sawing, Sweeping, 20/Pack," is $300 USD or $15 each for a "one use" mask.
No results found.
Good for quality, but pricey, hand tools.
Be aware they will push whatever they are selling. Some of the staff have no idea about the technical side of appliances.
I went there to buy a stove. I repeatedly told them I would be using bottled gas. They sold me a stove. When I went to my local gas guy, I learned there are at least three kinds of gas sold. Luckily, B&Q did not deliver as promised. I went back to the store and discovered they had sold me a stove they needed to be hooked up to the gas main. I got my money back.
The sales lady was almost in tears, 没有问题!I don't know if it a safety or design issue, but I would think B&Q would know and care.
Last week had an 8:45am flight.
Subway starts at 9am. I have no idea where to catch an airport express bus. Eight taxis refused to go to the airport. After almost an hour standing on Beijing Lu took a black taxi, this dude drives slower than my mother, 120 yuan.
Flight back was delayed so I learned the subway stops running at 6:10pm.
Getting a taxi back was easy, more taxis than customers. Taxi was 87 yuan including 1o yuan toll, airport to Beichen area. Yes, he took a longer route than necessary.
Kunming imagines being a gateway for international travelers. New airport but hard to get to and from it.
World Class Airport, NOT!
Tonight "Peacock", a performance by Yang Liping (杨丽萍), to begin her world tour, 8pm, 100-1680 yuan at Yunna Haigeng Auditorium.
Saw this lady perform at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium, in California, in 1995. Quite a good and interesting show.
I'm going to try to make it.
Not so good. Kimchi had a very sour taste. Other food was nothing to brag about. I don't think I would go back.
This bus station is not located as indicated. It is further North!
