People are maintaining order and distance in lines to get food. Generally, their discipline deserves to be highlighted. All quarantine restrictions, such as curfews, districts' lockdown, a ban on selling, and purchasing alcohol were followed by the population unquestioningly. And, of course, everyone is wearing masks.

The authorities also take care of the residents. When the districts were closed, administration representatives were visiting homes to measure the temperature and spread emergency rations to everyone indiscriminately, both to Thai citizens and foreigners. During quarantine, people are paying for electricity bills at a lowered fare, receive deferrals for large loans. Citizens who were laid off due to quarantine are receiving 50% of the salary from the state. Discounts are also made for foreigners — for example, property owners are temporarily reducing the cost of the rent.
