SAMUT SAKHON (NNT) - Seven field hospitals in Samut Sakhon will probably be closed now that Covid-19 infections in the province have dropped to 30-50 cases a day.

Permanent secretary for Public Health Kiattiphum Wongrajit said the situation had improved, and the outbreak was under control due to disease control measures. These included active case finding in communities, surveillance and "bubble and seal" measures at factories.

He said the ministry had recently talked with the Samut Sakhon provincial public health chief about closing seven field hospitals, with 2,227 beds in total, out of the 10 field hospitals, with 4,127 beds.

After they were closed, there would be three field hospitals with 1,900 beds left, which would be held in reserve in case there was an emergency situation. If they were found to be unnecessary, more field hospitals would be closed.
