Two American tourists have asked that they are allowed to stay in Thailand as they are afraid of the Covid-19 situation in the United States, which has become more serious.
They have been quarantined at the Kanchanaphishek Institute of Medical and Public Health Technology in Bangkok for 14 days after arriving in Thailand.
However, they said they wished to remain under Thai quarantine until the crisis in the country eases.
They expressed gratitude toward Thai medical personnel who, they said, took care of them very well.
