So in Korea 95% of restaurants you visit you have to scan a QR code to get in via their favorite chat app Kakao Talk. The app sent out an update the other day saying they will start accepting proof of vaccinations so when you scan and someone who is infected visits the same place, they will exclude you from getting a mandatory test and 2 week quarantine.
I just see where this is going, most Koreans want to get vaccinated, so much so that they are complaining there aren't enough to go around. I saw a 2 month old with a mask on, her whole face was red :( poor baby. And ALL the kids here are like zombies, parents with masks, kids with mask, zero social skills are being learned... the kids just sit and stare. But once they get enough vaccines to go around, they will 100% require you to be vaccinated to go into restaurants... we are probably 6 months to a year out from that.
It's really sad honestly, I love it here and don't want to leave but I feel like going back to the states with my 1 year old son and wife is probably the best bet even though it will be equally as shitty if Trump isn't back in office.... at least in the states I have my guns and I can get away from the cities. Just sad times ;/
Sorry to hear that. Prayers for you. Hang in there!
Same here in Philippines. Wellness and safesty seal (sorosian seal of compliance) is done here.
Well if they require one here... my business is graphic design, I'll just make one and play dumb... it's worked so far :P I get out of 99.9% of covid checks just playing the dumb American who can't speak Korean and doesn't know how to work the app. They give me a form to fill out and I just write nonsense on it.
I mean it's all subjective. Your situation sounds like shit also. I don't think I ever said my situation was worse then anyone else.
But I think we both can agree, that QR codes to go eat is trash.... and yeah we have it in most places you go too, not just restaurants.
I mean at the end of the day I can go back to the states where at least I have guns if I can find the lake they fell into and fish them out.... ;) ... so I do have that on you :P
Wow fuck that. Stay strong fren.
So you've come to terms with the new, fascist normal. What a great New World citizen you are!! We should all aspire to be just like you.
huh?
So sad to hear that. Praying this is all resolved.
