The government's Covid-19 hotline received some 10,000 calls a day during the five-day Songkran holiday, according to the National Health Security Office (NHSO).
Dr Jadet Thammathat-aree, secretary-general of the NHSO, said its 1330 hotline was inundated with calls from April 13 to 17, with many asking for Covid-19 medicines for patients in home isolation and others inquiring about treatments under the universal healthcare scheme.
