Thailand announces more coronavirus curbs after jump in cases

Thailand will extend the suspension of its quarantine waiver programme and bring in new restrictions after a jump in new coronavirus cases, the government's COVID-19 taskforce said on Friday.

Existing applicants of the "Test & Go" waiver scheme can still enter Thailand without quarantine until Jan. 15, said Taweesin Visanuyothin, the spokesman of the COVID-19 taskforce.
