I've basically given up on convincing Westerners of the utility of thermal screening. It's like talking to a brick wall. Why would they emulate the anti-pandemic measure of the countries with the lowest death toll?
My local shops in Thailand. In 2 seconds scans my temperature and to see if wearing mask. Doors don’t open if not. 3 cases in 100 days here. Removes awkward mask arguments for staff as well.
