Lampang province in the North of Thailand on Saturday (April 4) reported its first three confirmed cases of Covid-19 infection.

 

 

Governor Narongsak Osottanakorn said that the cases were confirmed on April 3.

 

The first patient had returned from Japan and stayed at a condominium in Bangkok before boarding a THAI Smile flight from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Chiang Rai airport. After that the person took a van to Ngao district of Lampang and did self-quarantine at home.

 

The province has already informed the airline and the van operator about this case. He added that the virus had now spread from the patient to the mother and aunt. He said the province was already prepared to handle the situation.

This is why people should be taken directly from the airport to a place where they are under strict quarantine.

 

What is the point of self isolation after a small tour of the country?

Idiots like these are forming many clusters, all over Thailand... Escaping from the airport (Swampy) THEY are a true danger to all in Thailand!

Good keep it in the family... another example of someone who doesn't understand what "self isolation" actually means!

Just proves the main point.

The PM may be angry but if his crew, his people & the population  will not obey orders we need someone in control to shake the big stick.

IT needs to be done NOW

Where did he get infected? Bangkok or Japan?
