I have just returned from Turkey. What I want to say is that the mask regime is more strictly controlled there than in their native country. The streets and beaches are patrolled by gendarmes, on the highway there are gendarmerie posts. No one is raging, of course, just a reminder to wear masks. In the hotel, at the entrance to the dining room, one of the staff is standing: in one hand is a thermometer, in the other is a jar of disinfectant (they have lemon cologne, 80% alcohol) and forcibly pours it into everyone's hands.
Protecting yourself, I think, is also not difficult: before and after staying in crowded places (airplane, excursions), you should drink antiviral (1 t / d), put on a mask and sanitize your hands. It may not protect 100%, but it will definitely reduce the risk of infection.
Don't panic and don't cheat others. Take care of your health in your own country.
Good luck to everyone and have a good rest!

What antiviral that you carry....

And I will add that the constant treatment of hands with antiseptics violates the protective layer of the skin, and then there will be trouble. Our hands are enough to periodically (not constantly scrub) and wash. And you will be happy.

I am in Turkey now. in Fethiye. In the city, mask mode even on the streets. But the masks are mostly on the chins. I even saw one shot on the back of the head) In stores and transport, they are strictly not allowed without a mask. On the beaches and in cafes do not require.
The beaches are being processed. Temperature is measured in many places, but not everywhere.
Few people, no crowds anywhere. The beaches are almost empty.
In general, very comfortable. The weather is good, the heat has subsided. The food is delicious, the nature is amazing, the sea is gentle.
The most successful option now is to rent apartments and rent a car and drive around the neighborhood. Some days we don't see other people at all. But even when there are people, they are far enough from us.
On the plane (we flew with Turks) with masks strictly, the whole flight is monitored so that people do not take off their masks. The food is all packaged - a hamburger, some water, a cake. At the airports, too, with masks strictly.
It seems to me that Turkey is exactly the place where you can safely sit out the hard times. Too bad the money is running out

We just arrived from Kemer, all the staff at the hotel are wearing masks, in the morning they take their temperature at the entrance. In the city, the locals are also almost all wearing masks, but tourists are mostly without. In large stores, restaurants, they also measure the temperature of everyone who enters. You won't be allowed on public transport without a mask. But despite this, we can say that we forgot about covid while we were in Turkey, compared to home, it's all like a background there. We had a great rest, and we are glad that we were not afraid to go because of the pandemic.

But we still didn’t decide on Turkey, everyone was waiting for the “nuts to be tightened” there more strongly, but no ...
I had to suffer and go to Croatia! :))))
I want to say, comrades, that we have seen many resort countries, but none of the visited countries can be compared with Croatia! So, paradoxically, thanks to covid that pushed us to this country, where we, in principle, were not going to yet.

"thanks to covid for pushing us to this country, where we, in principle, were not going to yet."
I can say the same about Turkey) I have not been to Turkey before and did not intend to yet) But the inability to meet my daughter and granddaughter in another way brought us to this country. Turkey is wonderful. Mine said - mom, you destroyed our stereotypes)

Guys, tell me how to do it? My husband and I were locked in a room in Egypt, as we tested positive for corona at the airport. We don't have any symptoms, so there is no treatment. They will release when there is a negative test, if on the 4th it shows that we still have a crown, we fly back under our own power and it is not known when and for how much. From 6 we pay for housing, each test is paid ($ 150 each). insurance does not cover anything, in short well full. How to achieve at least partial coverage of costs by insurance
аватар zolyshka111
yababich, so what advice is needed, what to do?
PS. great vacation, was it worth flying now to sit in the room?
аватар yababich
They already wanted to cancel the trip, but the agency made me happy - they don’t return the money, for the refusal there is a 100% fine, all the more I repeat, there were no symptoms. The question is how to get compensation from the insurance company for the costs of re-tests and the return flight
аватар zolyshka111
yababich, do you have such an item in your insurance - compensation for the costs of repeated tests and a return flight?
аватар moy_contakt
zolyshka111 It's very good to be smart while sitting at home.
yababich, my friends recently got into a similar situation. The day before yesterday everything was resolved and they returned home as a family (2 children + 2 children and the eldest son showed a positive result). The tour was for 10 nights. The child lived separately but in the next room. They took the test twice and both times it gave a positive result, but in the end, under certain conditions, they were all allowed to fly back and upon arrival they already passed two tests and both were negative ...
What do we have to do. There is no compensation for tests. Contact your travel agent and let her / him, for her part, bet on the ears of the tour operator so that you can be taken back. You contact your insurance company and find out what and to what extent you are entitled. But I know for sure that if you zadeozhitsya more than the duration of the insurance, they will wash their hands and send you. The test must be done, if it turns out to be negative, then you will be released and you will fly home. while you are at the hotel you are provided with everything at the expense of the hotel!
аватар moy_contakt
And the cost of the test is different for everyone, someone has 100 ye, someone has 120-130, you generally 150 lupanuli ....
аватар yababich
Thank you, I can only hope that the second test was negative
There is a clause on cost compensation, but in fact, when they were contacted, they twisted everything, they say if you fell ill in Egypt, then they will compensate, and if you find it at the airport, dosvidos, get out yourself as you want, at your own expense and don’t care where to take the money ...
аватар zolyshka111
my_contakt, I asked you not to comment on my posts. Tight with the perception of requests?
Yes, now I'm sitting at home precisely because I'm smart.
аватар moy_contakt
zolyshka111 I myself will decide what to do, and of course you can ask, it's your right.
аватар moy_contakt
yababich try to solve all the questions through a separate guide. Friends had a join up and the guide really helped. He contacted the head office, then he ordered a separate transfer to the airport and the fact that they allowed the child to be taken home with a positive PCR was also his merit.

Arrived from Kenya.
Everyone is wearing masks, the warriors are attached to wearing masks. Everything is strict.
аватар Igor_m
"warriors attach themselves to wearing masks" - this is inhuman, I could not even find a synonym for this word. Beasts!
аватар Slav_na
what conclusions did we come to:
- test to be done at home
- you need to take a private transfer
-if there are no rescheduled tours, it is better to stay at home, no matter how much you want to be free
but in general - it seems that the tests are done there for the sake of formality, and the plus test is distributed according to the order, well, there, 10% of those done. and someone hits the jackpot...
аватар yababich
I just can’t understand what test at the airport is 30 and at the hotel 150 ???, there is even a check
аватар zolyshka111
yababich, this is official information. The primary test is 30 ye, all other repeated tests are 150 ye.
аватар moy_contakt
The cost of the visit of a specialist to take the material is added to the cost of the test. But why the price fluctuates from 100 to 150 ye (I haven't heard higher numbers)... Maybe it depends on the distance from the laboratory. And the test result will be on the site, as I understand it, you should be given a code and by going to the site using the code, the result is available to you. But this should be told to you directly by a laboratory representative or, for example, a guide.

yababich, contact the embassy and explain the situation, if no one from the diplomatic mission gets in touch with the Foreign Ministry directly, please contact.

You can still write to the Pope. Or the presidents of the two countries - so, they say, and so - we did not do PCR at home and did not take out covid insurance, so let's urgently evacuate us so that we do not get money.
Author, pull the local guide and the Ukrainian tugagent. Carefully re-read the text of the insurance contract yourself, the clauses - when it comes into force and what it covers. You still have to pay for repeated PCR, try to shake out the transfer of tickets from the TO. Above, the idea was that you can go home even with a positive test ... well, you also need to have a conscience.

Pachok did several tests on the child at home upon arrival, both for a fee and for free (they waited 5 days, so they decided to take it also in a private, faster laboratory) and they were all negative. I tested for antibodies and they weren't found either. There were no symptoms at all. Why the Egyptian tests gave a plus, no one understands. Yes, you need to take tests in Ukraine and fly with ready-made tests!!!! But here, I think, the fault of travel agents who, in order not to miss the profit, do not voice tourists all the moments hoping for a chance.

Article 25. A citizen of Ukraine may not be deprived of citizenship and the right to change citizenship.
A citizen of Ukraine may not be expelled from Ukraine or published in another state.
Ukraine guarantees care and protection to its citizens who are outside it "
This is for whom to write and why, but no one will call a smart person if he did not take into account the risks, but will help to leave another country even if there is no money and pay for tests, most likely not for free, but with payment for
arrival to the country and here and embassy phones + 20-223-78-68-70 + 20-223-78-68-71

"Take the utmost care of your own safety. Carefully study the terms of your insurance policy.
Take care of the availability of additional funds in case of emergency (cancellation of return flights and the need to purchase new tickets, forced stay in the country beyond the planned period, etc.). Bring various means of payment - payment cards, cash, etc .;
Take care of your own health. Take with you the necessary medicines "in stock" - in case of forced delay abroad;
Check your health before traveling. This is especially true for the elderly and those with chronic illnesses, such as asthma, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, etc. "

"... I am already in a country where cases of COVID-19 infection continue to be registered?
Be sure to contact the nearest diplomatic mission of Ukraine and provide information about your whereabouts and contact details. The consuls will be able to help you only if you inform yourself. List of foreign diplomatic missions of Ukraine;
Register on the web site "FRIEND" - so our consuls will have information about you immediately in the digital database; "
In general, the embassy can help, and the Foreign Ministry has clearly written to check the state of their health, but as always, "our people" think that they are the smartest.

In St. Petersburg, if you are and if you get sick, keep in mind all the state clinics are overcrowded and there are wild queues. It is very convenient to call a doctor at home from the Baltic Pearl Medical Center. They arrive quickly and the price is all inclusive.
