Although the winter in
Thailand is not very cold, changing
weather conditions could put many people
at increased health
risks.
Children may need to be
careful about measles, acute diarrhea,
and pneumonia, while the elderly should
receive special protection against
influenza.
You should also be careful
of road accidents during foggy periods,
inhalation of toxic gases from gas water
heaters, and mortality from cold weather
among children and the
elderly.
