Thailand’s capital announced a ban on indoor dining and gatherings of more than 20 people from Sunday, in addition to the closure of construction sites and the sealing off of workers’ quarters in Bangkok and nine other provinces.
The measures come amid a sharp rise in coronavirus cases and will remain in place for 30 days.
Thailand reported 3,995 confirmed infections and 42 deaths in the last 24 hours.
The numbers have doubled recently, with health officials blaming a lack of co-operation from migrant workers employed in construction and in factories.
