The Covid-19 hotline received about 10,000 calls a day during the five-day Songkran holiday, according to the National Health Security Office (NHSO).
Dr Jadet Thammathat-aree, the NHSO secretary-general, said its 1330 hotline was inundated with calls during the festival, many asking for Covid-19 medicines for patients in home isolation and others inquiring about treatment under the universal healthcare scheme.
