Ang Thong province reports first new COVID-19 cases for two weeks

 

 

After more than a fortnight of no new COVID-19 infections and easing of restrictions, Thailand’s central province of Ang Thong today reported six new cases, most of whom had travelled to Pathum Thani province or had been in close contact with the infected people, according to the provincial health office.

 

Meanwhile, the Chaiyo Hospital, which was accepting people infected with coronavirus for treatment, is to lock down one building, housing nine COVID-19 patients, from Monday until further notice. Visits by relatives of patients in the building will also be prohibited.

 

The hospital also ordered the closure of in-patient services, until the end of the month, and all current in-patients will be transferred to Pothong Hospital.

It seems to me some people are not aware that people can still look and feel OK and can be infected.

So how come Pathum Thani isn't getting the Samut Sakhon treatment of locked in, and others out?

Or would that be inhuman to Thais?

Well it should be locked down and I think Thai people would agree. 

Complacency by provinces at this stage before mass vaccinations it not good.
