Abstract
COVID‑19 is an important new disease. It firstly
appeared in China and spread to more than 60 countries
at present (9th March 2020).[1] The dynamicity of disease
spreading is very interesting in clinical epidemiology.
Thailand is a country in Southeast Asia and it is the
second country that the disease existed in.[2] Until present,
there are 50 accumulated cases in Thailand and there are
still continuous importations of disease from countries
with outbreak to Thailand. Of those 50 cases, there are
many importations by foreigners from main hot foci of
COVID‑19, either China in Asia and Italy in Europe.[
