webfact Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 By Subhabhong Rarueysong BANGKOK (NNT) - The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) has launched a Line account to provide initial medical treatment to COVID-19 patients. Bangkok Governor Aswin Kwanmuang said the BMA has set up a system to notify COVID-19 patients regarding hospitalization via LINE@ account “@BKKCOVID19CONNECT,” which can be added via the LINE application or through the link shorturl.asia/afk0S . He explained that the account is to screen the patients with RT-PCR or antigen positive test results. Medical staff will initially assess the symptoms, after the patient’s personal information is entered into the system. According to the BMA, patients with mild symptoms will receive treatment in home isolation, while patients with more severe symptoms will be sent to a community isolation center, a field hospital or a “hospitel” for further medical treatment. -- © Copyright NNT 2021-08-31 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
