COVID-19: Thailand records three new cases, including 2 foreigners

Thailand reported three new COVID-19 cases and zero fatalities over the last 24 hours.

To date, the total of COVID-19 cases in the kingdom stands at 3,351 with 58 fatalities.

In a statement, the Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) said the new cases include a 31-year-old Bangladeshi man and a 41-year-old Indian woman.

The third case involved a 30-year-old Thai woman who returned from the United States, the statement read.

The three are undergoing compulsory quarantine at state facilities.

Meanwhile, the Public Health Ministry said all 2,582 fans at the Janey Daimodthasodchuen concert held at the Red Cross Fair on July 25 in the southern province of Nakhon Si Thammarat have tested negative for COVID-19.

The packed concert triggered public outrage as there were fans who failed to wear face masks and observe physical distancing.

The organiser was later charged with violating the emergency decree. - BERNAMA
