Bangkok City Hall opens new field hospitals to deal with surge in Covid cases

Bangkok, Jul 21 (EFE/EPA).- Bangkok City Hall has opened two new field hospitals to help alleviate the rising number of Covid-19 cases being treated in hospitals.

The Public Health Ministry announced Thursday that more than 2,600 new cases were admitted to hospitals. However, the numbers do not include the positive results from rapid antigen kits (ATK), as most of these are self-treated at home. (Camera: DIEGO AZUBEL).
