(Bloomberg) Thailand reported a record number of new Covid-19 cases on Sunday and locked down a seaside province near Bangkok where infections have surged.
The health ministry said it will continue to aggressively search for infections in Samut Sakhon, a manufacturing centre and seafood industry hub. Migrant workers from Myanmar make up the majority of the 689 new cases.
Bangkok Governor Aswin Kwanmuang announced a raft of measures to contain the virus late on Sunday. Schools will be closed for 14 days, workers who commute to Samut Sakhon must stay at home and migrant workers entering Bangkok will be screened.
“Migrant workers often board in rooms that are cramped and have many people living in close contact with one another,” Permanent Secretary of Health Kiatiphum Wongrajit said at a news briefing on Sunday. He said the lockdown in Samut Sakhon is designed to ensure the virus doesn’t spread to other provinces.
