Good Morning Thailand | End of the curfew? Anutin defends vaccine rollout | September 2

Ending the nightly curfew in “dark red” provinces is under consideration – a passing comment from the PM Prayut Chan-o-cha yesterday. Minister of Public Health Anutin has responded in defence of himself and in praise of the government’s apparently competent handling of the Covid-19 crisis. Police have taken into custody 2 suspects accused of beating a 23 year old coffee shop employee in Si Racha in Chon Buri on Monday. Watch out, ‘Mu’, a new Covid-19 variant that may be resistant to vaccines, is making headlines as a new “variant of interest” according to the World Health Organisation.
