Chonburi- The Chonburi Governor, Phakthorn Thienchai, along with the Chonburi Provincial Communicable Disease Committee, held a meeting this weekend to review current Covid-19 related measures in the province.

 

This comes as Chonburi hit a record new high of 1,062 cases of Covid-19 today, July 31st, 2021. 

 

According to the Governor, the province will stay under maximum control (Dark red) restrictions that are also mandated by the Center for Covid-19 Situation Administration, or CCSA, in Bangkok. TPN notes that the majority of the measures would have to be lifted by the CCSA before the Governor would be allowed to release his own orders allowing businesses to reopen or people to go to places like parks or pools.

No surprise there then......

Numbers up again today.

Happy August, look forward to another month of restrictions.

1000+ cases does not seem an awful lot to me, compared to rates in Western Europe and USA at the height of the pandemic last year. If there are big clusters in factories and/or construction camps then there is even less cause for concern. 

Staying away from other people is pretty easy. Just keep clear of mass vaccination or testing facilities.????
