Thailand network reported that on February 9, Associate Professor Nitipa, director of the Department of Respiratory And Tuberculosis of the Department of Medicine of the Siriraj School of Medicine of Mahidol University in Thailand, posted through a Facebook account about the new crown epidemic situation in Thailand.
Netipa said that the number of new confirmed cases of new coronavirus in Thailand soared on the same day, and the number of new confirmed cases in Bangkok, Samut Prakan, Nonthaburi and Pathum Thani alone accounted for about 36% of the country's 77 provinces. In the past two weeks, many hospitals in Bangkok and other major cities have increased the number of COVID-19 patients, and it has begun to release signals of insufficient beds and tight medical resources. Netipa said that the severe illness of most hospitalized patients may not be directly caused by the new crown, but by their own chronic diseases. There are also some patients who are not vaccinated or are not fully vaccinated.
