PHUKET: Phuket’s second “field hospital” at the Prince of Songkla University, Phuket Campus, in Kathu is ready to accommodate 150 patients and will officially open tomorrow (Apr 15), Phuket Governor Phakaphong Tavipatana has revealed.

 

Governor Phakaphong broke the news at an event at the campus yesterday (Apr 13) held to mark the handing over of two “temi” robots to health officials to reduce their exposure to COVID-19 patients.

 

The use of the robots is expected to create a safer way for doctors and nurses to interact with patients, and help prevent the spread of the virus.

According to stats, there are only 9 people confirmed with Covid-19 in Phuket. Why the need for a field hospital.????

As of today when they reported another 10 cases, it makes a total of 188, 72 of which have recovered leaving the rest in hospital which rounds up to around 116 being treated in hospitals in Phuket.
