The Ministry of Public Health of Thailand said all suspected cases are currently being isolated and closely monitored for test results. However, the department also reported that the condition of most patients is basically positive.

Earlier, Thailand also announced the discovery of the H5N1 bird flu virus in Nakhon Phanom province, northeastern Thailand, near the border with Laos. The inspection of 78 farms in this area has also begun.

According to the Thai Ministry of Agriculture, the cause of the disease here may stem from the chicken egg dealers in the Thai-Lao border area used to confuse each other's egg baskets.
