rooster59 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Neighbouring provinces follow Bangkok in closing many public outlets By THE NATION Interior Ministry permanent secretary Chatchai Promlert Five provinces bordering Bangkok will follow the capital's lead by ordering the temporary closure of many Covid-19 high-risk venues from March 22 to April 12. Interior Ministry permanent secretary Chatchai Promlert said on Saturday that the communicable diseases committees of each of the five provinces had made the same resolution as the one by Bangkok earlier in the day. The affected venues are department stores and some mass gathering venues, except supermarkets and convenience stores. The five provinces following Bangkok are: Samut Prakarn, Samut Sakhon, Nakhon Pathom, Nonthaburi and Pathumthani. Bangkok Metropolitan Administration earlier ordered the temporary closure of 26 types of venues it deems to be high risk for Covid-19 infection in the capital from March 22 to April 12. Meanwhile, some border provinces have temporarily closed some permanent crossings in a move to slow the escalation of the Covid-19 situation. They have also closed some areas where only temporary access is permitted for movement of goods.

stephenterry Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 It should be countrywide. Un(believable) that Chiang Mai hasn't - but on reflection the local government is a waste of space in enforcing anything approaching pollution and infection amongst their population. IMO, the greatest infection risk is, or will be, not high risk public entertainment and shopping venues per se, but government and private hospitals where they're always crowded out throughout every day (that I or my lady have visited recently). That's where low immunity people will spread the disease - I'm astonished that its taken so long to take effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
