“People should take care of their health because daily Covid-19 cases are still high,” Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha said.
Earlier, the Department of Disease Control (DDC) urged people to monitor themselves for symptoms, avoid gatherings and work at home for a week after Songkran.
DDC director-general Opas Karnkawinpong said those who have a fever, sore throat, runny nose or headache should take a rapid antigen test.
He said it was important for people to build their immunity by getting vaccinated and they must strictly obey measures to contain the spread of the virus.
