#Thailand - 31 provinces now at orange or yellow levels for Covid-19 risk

 

More provinces were added to Covid-19 risk areas coded orange and yellow.

The Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) on Thursday had decided to color code provinces as red, orange, yellow or green, depending on the level of coronavirus risk and the strength of measures taken in each province.

On Friday, the CCSA did not clarify the colour assigned to each province. However, based on several official updates on patient numbers, color codes were assigned. 

Of the 32 provinces where Covid-19 cases have been confirmed, the only one marked as red was Samut Sakhon. 

Those in orange, pointing to more than 10 cases, were: Bangkok, Samut Songkhram, Ratchaburi, Nakhon Pathom, Nonthaburi and Samut Prakan.

Provinces marked yellow -- fewer than 10 cases -- were: Saraburi, Suphanburi, Pathum Thani, Uttaradit, Kamphaeng Phet, Phetchabun, Chachoengsao, Ayutthaya, Phuket, Phetchaburi, Nakhon Ratchasima, Prachinburi, Krabi, Khon Kaen, Chai Nat, Udon Thani, Phichit, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Surat Thani, Prachuap Khiri Khan, Chaiyaphum, Nakhon Sawan, Ang Thong, Ubon Ratchathani, Songkhla and Loei. 

The rest of the provinces were marked green to show no Covid-19 cases had been reported in the new wave of infections.
