#CoronaVirusUpdate:

NEW CASES: 19

NEW DEATHS: 1
TOTAL DEATHS: 48
Number of new cases are slowly coming down in country. Many hope this may prompt the government to consider relaxing some of the preventive measures

#Thailand highlighting #Singapore #COVID19 #coronavirus #โควิค19 experience especially with rising number of cases detected in the foreign workers' domitories. #Bangkok is stepping up checks on such migrant worker facilities in own nation. Singapore now has more than 8,000 cases

#Thailand adds it's also reminding #migrant workers in country about the importance of #SocialDistancing & is training some of the migrant workers in different provinces as volunteers to disseminate information about #COVID19 #โควิค19 to their fellow countrymen

#Thailand emphasizes that today, it may see lower number of cases of 19. But warns that if not controlled, #Bangkok may end up experiencing a similar experience like #Singapore with a massive surge in #COVID19 #โควิค19. Urges all to remain vigilant & comply with rules in place

#Thailand says no plans to completely lift all #COVID19 #coronavirus #โควิค19 preventive measures. But there're plans to possibly relax rules going forward. The aim is to reduce number of new cases to below 10 daily for 2 weeks. Only then can Thailand consider revising rules

After the daily #Thailand government presser with #COVID19 #coronavirus updates, there's an impromptu band singing a new song about the importance of #SocialDistancing & that "all need to keep apart for now and we will soon be able to hug one another again"
