Education Minister Nataphol Teepsuwan

 

Education Minister Nataphol Teepsuwan said on Sunday (February 23) that the ministry has asked teachers and students who had travelled to six countries -- China, Japan, Hong Kong, South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore -- to stay at home for 14 days.

 

The measure is in line with the Public Health Ministry’s guidelines to prevent the spread of coronavirus, he said. Parents of students who travelled to those six countries should also stay at home in order to make sure that they were not infected by the coronavirus, he said.

 

The number of virus cases in Thailand remains at 35, while Japan and South Korea recently experienced a spike in infected patients.

 

Experts earlier believed that the virus could be transmitted to other people even though those infected may not have fallen ill yet, as the coronavirus incubation takes 14 days before making people ill. Recently, however, scientists studying virus cases in China said that the virus incubation period could be longer than 14 days.

The crazy thing is that every person is welcome with those Fingerprint readers at the airport. If there were an infected individual these things make sure the infection gets picked up by all arrivals following. 
 

last week, any alcohol spray was kept behind the desk upon request only.  
 

welcome to Thailand 

If you don't have it on hand yourself, how can you blame others from not having it?

I'm surprised they had the courage to put China on the list. 

was there a choice. the situation is glaring in everybody's face. there is no controversy that visitors from china are most likely to infect others, thank tourists from other destinations, although japan and south korea are also of concern now.

it would be more prudent to be transparent upfront because the disease will become uncontrollable if unchecked in time.

Its already too late with these numbskulls.

Let the chinese in, tell your own people to go in quarantine?

Its likely to be uncontrollable already.
