Thailand has 40 coronavirus cases; a school closes after pupil tests positive
So far, 78,497 people on the Chinese mainland have been infected. There were 29 new deaths reported on Thursday morning, bringing the death toll to 2,744. The commission said a total of 32,495 patients had recovered from the illness.
And now just-in, Thailand has new 40 cases of the “dangerous disease” coronavirus. The latest on Wednesday are an elderly couple and their 8-year-old grandson.
A grandfather, grandmother, and their grandson tested positive for coronavirus after the couple took a trip to Japan, health officials said, without identifying them by names. The boy’s school, Phraharuthai Donmuang School, has postponed class for two weeks in fears that the infected student may have spread the virus to his classmates, Khaosod English reported.
