About 2,000 pharmacies have joined Bangkok’s home isolation program, under which they will provide antigen test kits (ATKs), medication and counselling to asymptomatic, mildly symptomatic COVID-19 patients and those in high-risk groups.

 

Dr. Jiraporn Limpananon, president of The Pharmacy Council of Thailand, said today that they have sought cooperation from pharmacies in the capital to help in the operation of the home isolation program.

 

With the pending arrival of the ATKs, purchased by the National Health Security Office through the Government Pharmaceutical Organisation, she said that the council decided to mobilize the support of pharmacies, through which the ATKs will be distributed free of charge to the public, including to those in home isolation.
