The health minister of Thailand has denied the news that was traded about the Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha to have contacted Coronavirus.
The minister assured that news about infecting the premier is mere baseless hot air.
The Premier was seen wearing a face mask yesterday as he was vetting the main airport of Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand to inspect procedures of fighting the deadly virus.
On the other hand, a spokesman for the Thai government said that the Premier was forced to cancel some activities on Thursday due to catching a cold.

Thailand was among some countries across the planet which have announced the recording of 14 of the people who came from China.
The Thai officials warn that they follow up another 135 infections in the country.

Health bodies across Asia and Australasia have been placed on high alert after the first case of human-to-human Coronavirus was confirmed. The virus, which was first discovered in the Chinese city of Wuhan, has sparked fears of a major outbreak, with more than 200 people reported to have been infected so far.
At the present time, the government has not issued any travel warnings against visiting China, Japan, South Korea, Thailand or Australia.
If you are concerned, however, then it’s always a good idea to keep an eye on any updates to their advice if you’re planning to travel to any of the above countries – you can find the website here.
Thai authorities have said they plan to introduce mandatory thermal scans of passengers arriving from high-risk areas of China at airports in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, and Krabi.
Australia will also begin screening passengers on high-risk flights from China, although authorities have said the risk to the general public is low. It’s been reported that at least three US airports will begin screening passengers on high-risk flights, while Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, and Vietnam have all introduced stricter screening measures.
