Nine new confirmed cases were reported, the smallest single-day increase since March 14. Thailand has confirmed 2,931 cases, including 52 deaths.
Officials said a proposal will be submitted to the Cabinet on Tuesday for easing restrictions according to suggestions from the state planning agency.
Measures currently in place include a nationwide 10 pm-4 am curfew, the closure of malls, and restaurants being restricted to takeout and delivery service. A ban on incoming international commercial passenger flights was extended Monday through the end of May.
Officials say a state of emergency will be extended through May, allowing the government to continue implementing measures outside the normal legal framework to combat COVID-19.
