webfact Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 file photo Thailand’s Corrections Department has reported an additional 506 COVID-19 cases among inmates, this time in Klong Prem Central Prison in Bangkok. These are on top of the 1,795 cases in Bangkok Remand Prison and 1,039 in the Central Women’s Correctional Institution reported previously. Dr. Weerakit Harnpariphan, deputy director-general of the department, said today (Friday) that the 506 COVID-19 infections were only found, through active screening, in Zone 4 of the prison, a zone for vocational training, and there are still several more zones which are yet to be screened. He added, however, that the infected inmates have already been separated from those who are free from the disease and grouped in accordance with their symptoms.

There will be a whole load more from the " Prem " for sure, once testing of the other " Zones " is started. This beggars the question What are the Infections rates among the other 440+ Prisons in Thailand, that are Housing over 330,000 prisoners. Its odds on certain that the 3 Prisons in BKK are not stand alone cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have been told by relatives of inmates, visitors are, for now, banned. No visitors! One guy I know wants to visit his sister with some essential things which are not readily available in prison, or have to be bought by inmates at the prison shop!!
