13 LYING IN WAIT: Beds are put up inside the Rachapiphat Hospital run by the City Hall, which has turned part of its ward into a field hospital to care for the growing number of Covid-19 sufferers.
The capital has sufficient beds to cope with the recent spike in Covid-19 linked to the Thong Lor area cluster, according to Bangkok governor Aswin Khwanmuang.
Pol Gen Aswin said Bangkok has the capacity to treat the growing number of Covid-19 patients from entertainment venues as the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) has prepared the groundwork for the setting up of field hospitals since the first wave last year.

The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) has introduced new services in BMA-run hospitals to reduce the risk of Covid-19 transmission.
Bangkok governor Aswin Kwanmuang said the BMA was launching The New Normal Health Service to ease overcrowding in BMA-run hospitals, a factor that had led to the virus spreading among patients and health workers.
Four million out-patients and 100,000 in-patients use the BMA s hospitals each year.
Mr Aswin said the new normal services were telemedicine to allow remote communication and diagnosis between doctors and patients plus blood testing at home and delivering prescription medicines at drug stores near patients homes or even with the help of postal couriers.
