Electrical Appliances operators, shop staff and customers must wear face masks, and follow health precautionary measures very strictly.

NAN – Disease control authorities in Nan province allow shops of electrical appliances to reopen because the products facilitate every life of people.

Nan governor Worakitti Sritippakorn said Nan’s communicable disease committee made the decision on Tuesday after receiving reopening requests from local department stores, shopping centers and major retail shops.

The resolution for the reopening of electrical appliance shops and zones of such products at department stores and shopping centers took effect on April 24.

Car production in March decreased by 26 percent year-on-year, most likely to plunge to 1.4 million units, missing its target of 1.9 millionthis year.

BANGKOK - Thai industries sentiment index dropped to a 28-month low in March because of weak demands amid the coronavirus outbreak, says the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI).

FTI Chairman Supant Mongkolsuthree said Thai Industries Sentiment Index (TISI) decreased from 90.2 in February to 88 in March.

The TISI survey also found that manufacturers and companies in 45 sectors were concerned over the effects of Covid-19 in the next three months, creating grim prospect for recovery, he said.

Auto industry was among the hardest hit sectors, Surapong Paisitpatanapong, the FTI’s automotive industry club spokesman, said.

Car production in March decreased by 26 percent year-on-year, down to 146,000 units, he noted.

The FTI expected car production this year to plunge to 1.4 million units, missing its target of 1.9 million. If the crisis dragged on until June, the production could sink further to around 1 million units, Surapong added. 

The FTI's automotive industry club had lowered its projections for car exports and domestic sales earlier this year. (TNA)


Reopening expected for barbers and low risks businesses in Thailand

Dr Kamnuan Ungchusak, COVID-19 advisor to the Public Health Minister.

NONTHABURI- The Public Health Ministry considers reopening some businesses and places that pose low and medium risks of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) transmission such as barbers and hairdressers’ shops, public parks and department stores while entertainment places and boxing stadiums will remain closed.

Dr Kamnuan Ungchusak, COVID-19 advisor to the public health minister, said Deputy Prime Minister/Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul discussed the possibility of easing disease control measures with doctors from institutions. The meeting agreed to relax restrictions to restore everyday life of people and businesses.

Despite relaxation, officials would continue to screen people arriving from other countries and they would be quarantined for 14 days. Besides, COVID-19 case finding would continue in crowded areas and serious laboratory tests for COVID-19 would go on, he said.

Dr Kamnuan said people should continue to wear face masks, keep distance from one another, and refrain from gatherings to curb the number of new COVID-19 patients.

Businesses would be allowed to resume as about 7-10 million people were jobless. However, service stoppage would remain with entertainment places including pubs, bars, karaoke shops, massage parlours and boxing stadiums where people would shout. Those places proved to spread the disease, he said.

According to Dr Kamnuan, the reopening will start early next month in 32 provinces where the disease did not spread in the past two weeks. They are Nan, Kamphaeng Phet, Phichit, Sing Buri, Ang Thong, Chai Nat, Bung Kan, Trat, Ranong, Chanthaburi, Phetchabun, Phrae, MahaSarakam, Mukdahan, Yasothn, Roi Et, Sukhothai, Uthai Thani, Kalasin, Chaiyaphum, Nakhon Nayok, Nakhon Phanom, Phangnga, Sakhon Nakhon, Satun, Nong Bua Lam Phu, Amnat Charoen, Udon Thani, Phitsanulok, Mae Hong Son, Lop Buri and Saraburi.

The relaxation would follow in 38 other provinces mid next month. They are Chachoengsao, Pathum Thani, Chiang Mai, Narathiwat, Krabi, Kanchanaburi, KhonKaen, Chumphon, Chiang Rai, Trang, Tak, Nakhon Pathom, Nakhon Ratchasima, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Nakhon Sawan, Buri Ram, Prachuap Khiri Khan, PrachinBuri, Ayutthaya, Phayao, Phatthalung, Phetchaburi, Rayong, Ratchaburi, Lampang, Lamphun, Loei, Si Sa Ket, Songkhla, Samut Songkhram, Samut Sakhon, Sa Kaeo, SuphanBuri, Surat Thani, Surin, Nong Khai, Uttaradit and UbonRatchathani.

Bangkok and six other provinces will be the last group because the disease is spreading there. Reopening in the provinces could happen in early June if new infections stopped, Dr Kamnuan said. Apart from Bangkok, the provinces are Chon Buri, Nonthaburi, Phuket, Samut Prakan, Pattani and Yala.

“Reopening must be careful to prevent the second and third rounds of spreading,” Dr Kamnuan said.

Public parks could reopen first but visitors would not be allowed to exercise in groups or gather. Schools might reopen in July but those with air-conditioned classrooms would set desks apart from one another, he said.

Tables would be located apart from one another at restaurants. Customers would not be allowed to wait at barbers and hairdressers’ shops but would make appointments in advance. Department stores would limit the number of visitors at a time and refrain from promotional campaigns, he said.

Dr Kamnuan also said future lockdowns would be specific instead of across the board. (TNA)

Thai hospital uses computed tomography chest scan to detect COVID-19

The Digital Economy and Society Minister, Buddhipongse Punnakanta.

Thai Digital Economy Min, private firm offer AI-powered CT chest scan

BANGKOK-The Ministry of a Digital Economy and Society and a private firm have provided an artificial intelligence (AI) imaging solution that uses a computed tomography (CT) chest scan to detect the presence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) to Siriraj Hospital.

The Digital Economy and Society Minister, Buddhipongse Punnakanta, said today his ministry and Huawei Technologies (Thailand) Company Limited had presented the CT chest scan for detection of COVID-19 to Siriraj Hospital. The medical equipment is an effective tool in detecting and analyzing diseases, and uses the fifth generation (5G) of wireless communications technology. As the current situation remains uncertain, the equipment will support the work of health care providers.

With the AI-powered CT chest scan, physicians can look for ground-glass opacities (GGOs) with or without consolidations of the lungs. The equipment will provide analytical data within two minutes and can precisely evaluate the severity of the infection. It uses information and images from some 4,000 COVID-19 patients’ lungs in China for comparison. The equipment’s diagnostic accuracy is 96 percent, and it greatly decreases the risk of medical personnel coming into contact with infected patients.

The Dean of Mahidol University’s Faculty of Medicine, Siriraj Hospital, Prof. Dr. Prasit Watanapa, said today that CT scanning is one of the best ways to diagnose and treat COVID-19 patients, but it has to be conducted and analyzed many times. With the AI imaging solution, it will improve the accuracy of the diagnosis and expedite the process to 25 seconds per case. This will help ease the burden on medical staff. The 5G technology will increase the efficiency of health care providers. They will be able to respond faster, follow up on the patients and collect more information. It will also improve the allocation of medical resources. (NNT)
