Thailand News Today | Sandbox tug-of-war, Covid trend downward | August 30

A government spokesman says the daily rate of new Covid infections continues on the decline, with recovered patients outnumbering new cases for the last 10 days. Anti-government protesters have vowed that protests will take place around the country every day, and continue indefinitely, until the Thai PM resigns. Tourism operators on the southern Sandbox island of Phuket say Covid-19 restrictions must be eased to help the sector recover, even with the latest surge in infections.
