snoop1130 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 BANGKOK (NNT) - The Department of Health has urged food delivery businesses to adhere to disease control measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Department Director-General Dr. Suwanchai Wattanayingjaroenchai said more people have refrained from dining out and turned to food delivery services during the pandemic. The department’s latest Anamai Poll shows that up to 53.9% of respondents, residing in red zone provinces, have used food delivery services in the past month, while 35% of people in orange zone provinces also use the service. He said the poll showed that most food delivery staff followed disease control measures, such as wearing a face mask while working and using e-payment methods to avoid touching cash. However, it is a matter of concern that 27.6% of delivery staff said that they did not wash their hands before and after handling the food. Dr. Suwanchai has urged the companies to provide their staff with hand sanitizers and have them clean their hands before and after they touch the food packaging, even when they wear gloves, as well as following other disease control measures and logging staff travel history, to help with contact tracing in case of infection. -- © Copyright NNT 2021-06-15 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post smedly Posted June 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2021 This is why testing is so important I would like to know how widespread CV19 is in Pattaya but there is no way to know this because testing is very limited I would also like to have an antibody test to see if I may have already had CV19 but again information on this is difficult to find all of this leads to people understanding the risks in the area they live - something the government are reluctant to do because it makes them look bad if the numbers go up 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
