The permanent secretary for health warns Myanmar migrants’ weekly rallies at the United Nations complex in Bangkok can seriously spread Covid-19 again as they come from epidemic provinces.
Dr Kiatiphum Wongrajit said on Thursday that the weekly rallies were a serious concern because Myanmar demonstrators came from many areas where Covid-19 was spreading, including Samut Sakhon province.
“Many people joined the rallies. They shouted and talked closely without adequate protection such as social distancing and the use of face masks,” he said.
