Deputy Public Health Minister Sathit Pitutecha will visit Rayong today while a deputy director-general of the Department of Disease Control will visit a condominium in Bangkok. Mr Sathit said later on Monday he would visit Rayong and check locations including Central department store, Laem Thong shopping mall and D Varee Diva Central Rayong Hotel. The group returned to Egypt on Saturday, the day before the lab confirmed the positive result. The group visited other places during their stay in the province, including a shopping centre, he said, but he would not name the locations.
