With the alarming rise in Covid-19 infections in Banglamung district, there is now an acute shortage of hospital beds to treat the increasing number of patients.
To alleviate this problem of shortages, Banglamung District Chief Wuttisak Singhadecho called a meeting of community leaders, including Nongprue Mayor Winai Inpitak, Surapol Klumprasert, Director of Public Health and Environment Division, and Local Administration Organizations in Banglamung District to discuss the possibility of setting up Community Isolation Centers in the district.
Recovering Covid-19 patients and those under close observation will be housed at the isolation centers until it is determined that they have fully recovered or are not infected.
Initially, the authorities have designated the Ramanya Resort in Nongprue subdistrict as one of the many isolation centers planned.
Preparations to convert the resort into a semi-medical center are underway, and the facility is expected to be ready for occupancy very soon.
Other locations are also being scouted in case the Covid-19 situation gets worse.
