Covid-19 to be declared endemic in OctoberDr Taweesilp Visanuyotin, spokesman for the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration, announces the decision of the CCSA meeting from Government House on Friday. (Screenshot)The government will declare Covid-19 endemic in October, and the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) will then no longer be the main agency dealing with the disease. The decision to declare the disease endemic was based on the presently limited number of severe Covid-19 cases and related fatalities. "The goal is for people to be able to coexist safely with Covid-19 and live normal lives," Dr Taweesilp said. The incidence of Covid-19 would be similar to influenza, and there would be new cases all year long, Dr Taweesilp said.
