13 Sept 08:57 Key points summarised by AI

Over 84% of COVID-19 fatalities in Thailand were unvaccinated or lacked official records, with an additional 7.2% having received only one dose.
The Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) attributes a positive trend in declining daily deaths to the country's mass inoculation program.
Between April 1st and September 9th, 13,637 people died, with a median age of 67; 95.82% of these deaths occurred in hospitals, and most victims had underlying diseases.
Thailand recorded 12,583 new COVID-19 cases, 16,304 recoveries, and 132 additional deaths today, with 132,113 people currently hospitalized.
While the overall fatality rate is declining, it remains high in specific provinces like Nakhon Pathom, Nonthaburi, and Samut Sakhon, with Bangkok reporting the highest number of new infections.
