Thirty-two people have been infected at a private school in Samut Prakan province, the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) spokesperson Dr Taweesin Visanuyothin said on Sunday.

The infection is suspected to have spread from two foreign teachers who went to an entertainment venue to attend a farewell party for a teacher.

The virus spread to two African nationals, one Thai teacher, 23 students and four family members of a student. Health officials found that foreign teachers and students were not wearing masks in the classroom.

Taweesin said that similar clusters had developed from people not wearing masks at a state enterprise in Udon Thani province where eight people were infected, a bank’s head office in Bangkok where five were infected, a private company in Bangkok where three people were infected, a private company in Chonburi province where 23 people were infected, a private company in Samut Sakhon province where two were infected, three private companies in Nonthaburi province where 12 people were infected and a government agency in Pathum Thani province where four people were infected.

“This is the main reason why the CCSA urges all sectors to let employees work from home as much as possible and restrict people’s movement between provinces,” Taweesin said.
