Phuket will persevere with its Phuket Sandbox tourism reopening scheme, despite escalating challenges associated with the rise in new Covid-19 infections, mostly infected locals who transferred from other provinces to receive treatment. I insist the Phuket Sandbox will continue as what has happened still doesn t affect the scheme, said provincial governor Narong Wunsiew.
Most of the about 20 new Covid-19 cases recorded each day were infected locals who had contracted the virus from elsewhere before being referred back to Phuket for treatment, he said.
