Rotweiler Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 (edited) We have relatives living close to Mae Sai and have just been advised of numerous local Covid-19 cases in the border area, presumably in Myanmar. Apparently the area close to the border is in lockdown. Nothing yet on major media. Anyone have more information?

orchis Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 The recent case in Chiangmai came from Myanmar to Maesai, by van to Chiangrai then with the bus to Chiangmai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotweiler Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 New info - Tachilek or Tha Khi Lek. as the Burmese prefer it be called, is in lockdown. Confirmed cases appear to be in the dozens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sceadugenga Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 There's an article in a national daily that cannot be linked here. Apparently a Thai woman crossed the border, possibly illegally, on Nov 23rd and 326 contacts have been traced. Could be a busy week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Aussie Chiang Mai Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Find this hard to believe. No Covid-19 in Thailand. I have another beer and rethink this. ????❤???????????? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since test results take a bit longer than pouring another beer, dozens of 'confirmed cases' may be a specious claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
