Bang Sue train depot to serve as waiting area for Covid patients
The train maintenance depot at Bangkok’s Bang Sue Grand Station will be converted into a temporary facility for Covid-19 patients waiting for hospital beds, Bangkok governor Aswin Kwanmuang said on Tuesday.
The depot will accommodate 240 patients in beds set up inside parked bogies and should be ready by July 30.
So far, about 60 per cent of Bangkok’s population has been vaccinated and should develop herd immunity once more residents receive their shots.
