On Monday, June 1, 2020, Thailand is set to reopen more businesses, which are classified as medium to high risk, including cinemas, fitness centers, spas and massage parlors.

According to the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA), there are 10,500 spa and massage businesses registered with the Health Service Support Department. This industry employs over 100,000 workers altogether.

All massage and spa businesses have to conduct self-assessments every week and send the results to the health department.

Thailand ends May with 4 new cases of coronavirus, with no new death. The total infection of the coronavirus in Thailand is at 3,081. 

The new patients had arrived in Thailand from the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia and have been in state quarantine, said a spokeswoman from the CCSA.

Local infections have slowed and over the last two weeks, around 80% of new cases were Thais who had returned from abroad.
