393 infected illegal immigrants will be moved from Bang Khen immigration centre to a field hospital inside the police club on Vibhavadi Rangsit highway tomorrow, according to immigration police commissioner Pol Lt-Gen Sompong Chingduang on Tuesday.

 

Currently, there are 490 illegal immigrants being held at the Bang Khen facility and another 1,125 at Suan Plu detention centre. The two centres have temporarily stopped accepting new arrivals.

 

Those in Bang Khen will be divided into new infections, those have been infected for a while and those who used to be infected for orderly transfer to the field hospital.

lock them all up and allow the spread of a deadly virus right in the middle of a world pandemic

A cheaper alternative would be to provide masks for them all because we all know how effective masks are.
