Medical safety in SAmritThailand, like the rest of the world, has been impacted by Corona virus which is constantly changing. There has not been a reported case in SamRit for over a year however infections are being reported in popular tourist areas. We are not in a Malaria zone. We have encountered seasonal Dengue fever in the past but no recent cases as mosquito control has been effective. We do however have mosquitos in the evening so coils and insect sprays will help. We have not had rabies infected animals or anyone bitten by the local dogs. No lethal spiders. You may see snakes, large lizards and gekkos but there are no known issues over recent years.
The Thai Government initiated a Corona Virus national vaccine programme over 5 years ago. There are no current compliance requirements however you will see some Thais wearing masks in crowded areas. Due to the rapidly changing nature of the epidemic is is important that you check with your airline, your own government's travel advice. There has been a reported increase in Covid infections in 2025 but this has not been observed in our precinct.
