Yes, correct. The above is the weekly average spreadsheet. All the daily numbers for yesterday haven't been posted yet by SAT-MOPH.

Ah right - 12 March is week ending, not the date. Thanks

No problem, but as announced this is the last week for the spreadsheets. People will have to get their data directly from: https://ddc.moph.go.th/covid19-dashboard/ after that.

We'll continue posting important Covid news, and significant increases or decreases in numbers. The Bangkok Post summary story link will also be posted daily as we have been doing.

China does not tell the world what is going on so you really have to hunt around for news. Shenzhen is in full lockdown ...

China's top tech city, Shenzhen, locks down completely for at least a week
The Chinese city of Shenzhen – the nation's tech hub – has gone into a week-long lockdown intended to slow an outbreak of COVID-19, and sent the world's tech-dependent industries into a whirlwind of worry about the impact on supply chains.

Shenzhen's local government yesterday announced the lockdown, and ordered the following restrictions on the city's 17.5 million residents:

Employees of enterprises, except those responsible for the supplies of daily essentials like water, electricity, fuel, gas, communications, food and public sanitation, are required to work from home, or suspend production and operation activities.
Business venues, except supermarkets selling daily necessities (including the agricultural produce markets), pharmacies, medical institutions, catering enterprises that provide takeout services, will be closed.

This matters because Shenzhen is a hub for China's technology and logistics industries. The city is home to Huawei, Tencent, and many other large tech companies - including Taiwan's Foxconn which has reportedly shut a pair factories at which iPhones are made. The famed Huaqiang Electronics World – a sprawling mall specializing in electronics components and accompanying online marketplace – is a top-tier sourcing option for any manufacturer. And plenty of manufacturers can be found in and around Shenzhen.
