Coronavirus Precautions/News/Updates for Hua Hin/Prachuap

[GroveHillWanderer]

The Chart with the hospital covid tests shows you get the results from HH Hospital within 72 Hours. Does anyone know what date is put on the test result? You need to show the test was within 72 hours of your arrival in the UK.

Based on my and (my daughter's experience) when you get the test they'll tell you when the result will be ready. The date on the certificate is the date of the result. That would normally be the date when you pick up the certificate (unless for some reason you don't pick it up the day they tell you to).

Thanks, GroveHillWander,
So if I arrive in the UK on, say a Saturday morning, I would need to pick up the test the Thursday before, and so to allow the Hospital their 72 hours, I would need to get it done on the Tuesday. (And hope the HHH don't turn it around too quickly, otherwise, the three days validity will expire before I enter the UK )

If you look at the timeline of the foreigner, above, you will see that on 1 June at 10am he went for a test for travel purposes. However the queue was full and they gave him a queue card for the same afternoon. He got the result the next morning. So maybe waiting time won't be that long now as there is probably no great pressure at the moment.

Pity! Without the poultry cluster HH would have been 0 today.

The diagram indicates that these cases are linked to a cluster whose first case was found in Phetchburi on 2nd June. All of today's cases are asymptomatic and were found in active testing.

I see that the chicken slaughter house is much better placed to spread Covid being pretty much in the town centre. Or am I being too pessimistic?

[PET]

The Chicken factory is in Hi Lek Fai and situated off the bypass - somewhere near to the turnoff to Black Mountain but on the going to Bangkok side with the cluster of 76 of which 35 in HH hospital and 41 in quarantine

I stand corrected then. I was going by their map on their website which shows their location in the town. Probably just an office then.

Based on our experience - and the posts by a couple of other people on here it seems the results are usually ready the day after taking the test.

I think the best thing would be to go to the hospital, tell them you need it for traveling abroad and ask them how long it will take. That's what my daughter did and they told her the results would be ready the day after the test.

Also as I understand it, the requirement is for the negative test to be 72 hours before departure, not arrival.

Here's what it says on the UK government website:

You'll need to: provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test taken in the 3 days before you leave for the UK
