The Public Health Ministry is to monitor the Covid-19 situation, with particular regard to eight provinces including Bangkok, where it will promote booster shots.
Dr Sophon Iamsirithaworn, deputy chief of the Department of Disease Control (DDC), said surveillance will also be carried out among high-risk groups when the virus is downgraded.
The ministry has identified provinces where an outbreak is possible -- all are tourist destinations or are dense with migrant workers, he said.
