BANGKOK, Oct 4 (The Nation Thailand/ANN): The Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) is worried about the coronavirus situation in the deep South as the infection rate in four southern provinces are reported to be as high as the capital’s, assistant spokesperson Dr Apisamai Srirangsan said.

The four southern provinces – Narathiwat, Pattani, Yala and Songkhla – reported 1,968 Covid-19 cases out of a countrywide total of 9,930 new cases on Monday, or 21 per cent, which is the same percentage in Bangkok and the metropolitan region.
