The government on Tuesday reported two new coronavirus cases, bringing the total in Thailand to 3,017. No additional deaths were reported, leaving the accumulated toll at 56.
The two new cases are a 19-year-old woman from Bangkok and a 51-year-old woman from southern Narathiwat province. Both were infected by coming into contact with previous cases, said Taweesilp Visanuyothin, spokesman for the government's Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration.
The majority of new cases in the past two weeks are from southern Thailand, including a cluster at an immigration detention centre in Songkhla province, Dr Taweesilp said.
