Plan to use stadiums in seven provinces as field hospitals under consideration
The Sports Authority of Thailand (SAT) is ready to allow the use of central stadiums in seven provinces as field hospitals.
The stadiums in Nakhon Ratchasima, Trang, Phetchabun, Mae Hong Son, Amnat Charoen, Narathiwat and Krabi could be used under a plan to provide beds for the increasing number of Covid-19 patients in the country.
An SAT executive told The Nation Thailand that this plan was being discussed with the Ministry of Public Health.
Previously, the SAT had turned the Nimitbutr building in Bangkok’s National Stadium complex into a pre-admission centre for Covid-19 patients.
