A new type of coronavirus has emerged

Authorities working in the field of digital economy and society in Thailand announced that they have encountered a new type of coronavirus during examinations conducted on local bat populations. According to the results of the research, there are no signs or cases indicating that the virus in question has been transmitted to humans so far.

In the official statement, it was stated that there is no situation that would require the public to be concerned and that the risk of a possible epidemic is at a very low level in light of the current findings. Furthermore, experts emphasized that both the transmission rates and the potential to cause disease of this newly identified virus appear to be quite limited when compared to COVID-19.

In the past, some types of coronaviruses circulating among animals in a similar way have occasionally come to the agenda, but most have not shown transmission to humans. Thai health authorities and scientists stated that such cases will continue to be monitored closely and that the public will be informed regularly.
