Alcohol sales banned in entire country

Thailand has banned sales of alcohol and ordered the closure of shops or venues selling those alcoholic beverages. The alcohol ban comes as part of efforts to contain the spread of the Covid-19 Coronavirus.

All but two provinces have ordered the ban until April 30. The other two provinces have banned it until further notice.

The ban comes as Thailand has cancelled celebration of the Songkran water festival, Thailand’s new year which usually starts on April 13. Authorities are worried that people will gather and drink to celebrate the event, leading to a spike in new virus cases which is currently on a declining trend.

According to the Nation the ban period varies in different provinces while in Bangkok it is from April 10-20.
