Sathit hints Songkran fun can go ahead 5 published : 13 Jan 2021 at 04:00 5 Thailand may be able to contain the current spread of Covid-19 in time to celebrate the Songkran festival in April if all sides cooperate well in efforts to bring down infections, the government said yesterday. Last year's Songkran festival was postponed due to the first outbreak of Covid-19. With the resurgence of the virus since the end of last year, the number of daily Covid-19 cases is projected to exceed 100 for the next two months, if nothing is done to flatten the curve, Deputy Public Health Minister Sathit Pitutecha said yesterday.
