SURIN, March 30 (TNA) – The communicable diseases committee of the northeastern province resolved to postpone its declaration of COVID-19 as an endemic disease from April 1 to after the Songkran festival.

The committee found that Surin still failed to meet many of 13 criteria for the endemic disease declaration and there could be new clusters of COVID-19 cases during the Songkran festival.

The hospital bed occupancy rate in Surin stood at 8% while a criterion caps it at 3%.

Give it a week after Songkran and we will all be at 10% occupancy again. In Canada most provinces have stopped requiring masks and numbers have gone back up.

The hospital bed occupancy rate in Surin stood at 8% while a criterion caps it at 3%.

That is virtually nothing compared with the past year or so. Is that occupancy rate purely Covid-19?
