Government to decide which “red” businesses can reopen in next phase
The Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration revealed today that the government is now considering which high-risk or “red” businesses will be allowed to reopen under Phase 4 of lockdown easing. CCSA spokesman Dr Taweesin Visanuyothin says that the virus could be with us for months or even years, so the government must carefully consider which “red” high-contagion-risk businesses can reopen. The CCSA has asked operators of “red” businesses for their Covid-19 preventive plans and measures so the agency can make a decision on whether they can reopen.
Here are the businesses and activities currently in the running to reopen in the fourth phase:
- Educational institutes – for classes, training, and exams
- Nurseries and centres for the elderly
- Educational science attractions (hundreds of them!)
- Meeting rooms holding more than 200 attendees
- TV and film productions with crews of more than 100 people
- National parks (restricted to certain areas)
- Remaining unopened beaches
- Amusement parks, playgrounds, and game centres
- Gyms, fitness centres, and sports stadiums (that haven’t already been opened)
- Convention halls larger than 20,000 square metres, for concerts, expos, and events
- Entertainment venues, pubs, bars and karaoke outlets
- Large massage shops
