69 new COVID-19 cases recorded today, with a new cluster related to a confectioner
14 Sept 02:35Key points summarised by AI
Thailand registered 69 new COVID-19 cases, including a significant cluster of 17 infections originating from a confectioner in Bangkok's Bang Khun Thian district.
The confectioner cluster began with a migrant worker and expanded due to insufficient health measure enforcement and crowded living conditions among workers.
Samut Sakhon province reports only 9 new cases, indicating an improving situation that allowed the resumption of bus services.
The Ratchathewi post office closed for five days for disinfection after a staff member tested positive, with 13 co-workers instructed to self-isolate and get tested.
