COVID-19 - Situation and response in Thailand

FML.

"Thailand has its first case of human-to-human transmission of the new coronavirus inside the country, a health official said on Friday, as authorities raised the total number of cases in the country to 19, the second-highest after China.

The first patient to contract the virus inside Thailand is a Thai taxi driver, said Tanarak Pipat, deputy director-general of the Department of Disease Control.

“(He) ...does not have the record of traveling to China, and it is likely that he was infected (by) a sick traveler from China,” Tanarak said."
