Thailand had the second-highest number of infections after China but new cases have gradually declined.

The two new cases, both Thai nationals, were people who were being monitored because they had been in contact with someone who had travelled to a risky country, said Suwanchai Wattanayingcharoenchai, director-general of the Department of Disease Control. One of the newly confirmed cases was a 31-year-old woman with a family member who had travelled from China, another senior health official said, adding that health workers were monitoring the rest of the family.The coronavirus is believed to have emerged in a wildlife market in the Chinese city of Wuhan late last year. It has infected more than 80,000 people in China, killing 2,663 of them.

Thailand was the first country outside China to confirm a case of the new coronavirus, doing so on Jan 13.
