The Communicable Disease Committee in Chiang Mai ordered two more places to close last week due to the spread of Covid-19.
One of them is a dhamma centre located in the Muang district, which will be closed for 14 days.
According to news reports, nine people were found infected with the coronavirus at the dhamma centre and the chances of the infection spreading further are quite high.
The dhamma centre posted an announcement on its Facebook page, saying that there have been no activities at the centre for more than five months and that it had strictly followed all state disease prevention protocols. However, an infected member of the centre had gone in for a visit, which led to the emergence of mini Covid-19 cluster inside the centre itself.
