Two orders from the Chonburi Governor Phakarathorn Tienchai have been released today (June 2nd) by the Chonburi Public Relations Office.
The first order concludes that more confirmed cases and close contacts of Covid -19 were found in a village in Soi 57, Moo 5, in the Bang Sai sub-district of Mueang Chonburi.
In order to control the spread of the virus, the Chonburi Disease Control Committee has order to temporarily lockdown the area in Soi 57.

The order runs from May 30th to at least June 12th.
