THE three Ts –tracing, testing and treatment – at the community level hold the key to Thailand winning the battle to contain Covid-19, a spokesman of the government’s Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) said, while revealing three scenarios the Ministry of Public Health has projected from now until September.

“The first scenario is if Thailand continues the lockdown measures announced under the emergency decree, we will have approximately 15 new cases per day and three reported cases per day,” Dr Taweesin Visanuyothin, CCSA spokesman, said on Friday.
