With the country now designated into zones according to the severity of each area's situation, those gatherings and activities that would draw crowds in "maximum control zones" and "control zones" are prohibited. Gatherings and activities in government-designated "close surveillance zones" and "surveillance zones" can take place if they receive approval from provincial governors. Provincial governors will announce which areas are maximum control, control, close surveillance and surveillance zones. Infections linked to entertainment venues in Bangkok rose to 125.
