The ban on all alcohol sales in the Thai capital of Bangkok starts today for 10 days. This is to curb social gatherings that could spread COVID-19. Alcohol is now banned for about 16 million people in Thailand as several others provinces have already imposed curbs. A nationwide night time curfew runs daily from 10pm to 4am. Thailand as a whole is under a state of emergency and partial lockdown through April. As of Thursday, Thailand confirmed 2,423 COVID-19 cases, with 32 fatalities. More than half the cases are in Bangkok, where a mobile testing system is being rolled out.
