As of April 21, Chachoengsao has 21 confirmed cases of Covid-19 and has been under lockdown since March 23. Businesses that involve public gatherings have been closed since then and the province set up eight checkpoints to screen people entering.

Fair enough it may be improving within the province, but where's the logic in allowing others into the province easily when they could be infected?

Ah, the Public Health Mystery Ministry. Isn't A-nut-in charge there?

I can see the reply from him now: Details? Details? You want to know details? Don't bother me about details.
