Jonathan Fairfield Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 To reduce overcrowding inside hospitals in Bangkok due to the high number of Corona infections after the widespread spread of the Delta strain recently, the Thai authorities decided to allow Corona patients with mild or no symptoms to stay at home or in isolation tents centers in the Klong Toei area of Bangkok instead of hospitals. With the aim of preventing the transmission of the virus to their families and providing care for the injured inside the tents, 20 isolation centers were opened in different areas in Bangkok to provide basic care for Covid-19 patients with mild to moderate symptoms, and if their symptoms worsen, they are admitted to hospitals. -- © Copyright A24 News Agency 2021-07-18 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThailandRyan Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 I posted about this last week and @anchadianfound more photos and an article on this. So just a rehash for those that missed this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mtls2005 Posted July 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 18, 2021 Not sure medical staff, regardless of their efforts and commitments, will be able to sustain the effort, which right now looks extremely daunting. Many firewalls, normally protecting the docile Thai populace, appear close to being breached. Food, safety, finances, health all seem stretched. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Filling up a hospital with people who do not have any or only mild symptoms has always seemed like an unwise way to handle this pandemic. I hope that the field hospitals and isolation tents are used a lot more. Making people go back to their crowded homes, with only 1 bathroom for 8 people. Or other factors that keep people from being able to isolate away from their healthy family members, is helpful in keeping the virus from spreading. It is a shame that some posters on this forum, think that all Thai families get to have the same kind of accommodations that they enjoy. Even my Thai relatives have 8 members in a 3 story structure with only 2 bathrooms and one kitchen and eating place. Isolation is very difficult.
