(Photo: Chanat Katanyu)Siriraj Piyamaharajkarun Hospital has announced that it cannot accept any more Covid-19 patients because all beds for critical coronavirus patients are fully occupied. We apologise for this inconvenience.”The 345-bed hospital is the private offshoot of the adjacent Siriraj Hospital, the country’s best-known public hospital, located on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River. Up until early April, about 20 Covid patients a day were seeking treatment at Siriraj Hospital. That prompted Siriraj Hospital to issue a clarification that the bed situation for Covid-19 patients there was still controllable and normal. The hospital was treating both patients with mild Covid symptoms and those with severe symptoms, said Dr Apichart Asavamongkolkul, dean of the Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University.
