webfact Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 COVID-19 infections in the eastern coastal province of Chon Buri continue to surge, with 1,342 new cases being recorded in the past 24 hours, including clusters among students at two universities, and with more than half of the cases reported from Banglamung district which covers the beach town of Pattaya. No fatalities from COVID-19 infection have been reported in the same period. The figure in Chon Buri is slightly lower than during the peak of COVID-19 spread in August last year at just above 1,600 cases a day. According to the Chon Buri provincial health office today (Friday), most of the new cases are in the Muang, Si Racha and Bang Lamung districts, where cases are spiking as health officials accelerate antigen testing. Among those in Muang are 40 employees in neighbouring Rayong province receiving treatment in Chon Buri.
