The government will on Oct 1 lift the state of emergency imposed to cope with the coronavirus pandemic and end the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration.
CCSA spokesman Taweesilp Visanuyothin said after Friday's meeting that the centre resolved to end the state of emergency imposed since March 24, 2020, and dissolve itself, because the Covid-19 situation was improving.
"People and businesses have resumed normal activities and the Public Health Ministry is redefining Covid-19 as a communicable disease under surveillance, instead of a dangerous communicable disease," Dr Taweesilp said.
