Similar semi-shutdown for Chiang Mai as of 23 Mar through 13 April.

Permanent land border crossings are said to be closing as of 23 Mar.

Migrant workers are making their way to the borders. Many folks leaving Bangkok and heading home. Buses headed upcountry packed.

Bangkok very quiet. Air quality not too bad. Hot but breezy.

Thank goodness for delivery services.
