Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul received a flu vaccination on May 12, 2569 (2026) at 9:45 AM at Government House before a cabinet meeting, as Health Minister Patana Prommapetch and Ministry of Public Health officials presented the government's public health policy initiatives.

During the exhibition on communicable disease prevention, the Prime Minister was vaccinated and visited booths featuring the PCV pneumococcal vaccine program (described as 'Protecting lungs, ensuring children's health'), the 'Doctor Ready Super App' digital health platform, and demonstrations of hepatitis B and C screening tests.

The government announced that PCV pneumococcal vaccine has been added to the national health insurance benefit package (gold card) for all Thai children following the National Health Security Office's (NHSO) announcement in the Royal Gazette on April 30, 2569. PCV will be provided as a public health benefit to prevent serious diseases including pneumonia and meningitis.

The Disease Control Department is coordinating vaccine distribution with relevant agencies. The NHSO is currently procuring vaccines while the Ministry of Public Health prepares healthcare facilities nationwide, including cold chain logistics, staff training, and target population lists, to launch PCV vaccination services nationwide by late 2569.

The Health Ministry's public health policy promotion campaign focuses on three key objectives: upgrading national vaccination standards by integrating PCV into the national immunization program; advancing concrete progress toward eliminating hepatitis B and C; and developing Thailand's digital health system through the 'Doctor Ready Super App' to create seamless healthcare service integration.

Hia Tee TD99, also known as Sarasak Saetang, a prominent boxing camp owner and expert, has hinted at stepping away from the boxing industry, saying that the environment is no longer suitable for him. Previously, Hia Tee TD99 was required to appear in court as a co-defendant alongside three others in a case involving the assault of a person with a disability. Most recently, he posted a message through his personal Facebook page under the name Sarasak Saetang, stating, 'I'm turning over all my boxing operations to Phi Sommai because this place just isn't right for me.' This post has prompted many boxing fans to comment on whether Hia Tee is planning to exit the industry.

A 54-year-old man, known as Ruen or Mai (surname withheld), has been arrested for the sexual assault of a 70-year-old woman in Huai Yot District, Trang Province. Police executed arrest warrant No. 186/2569 issued on April 16, 2025, charging him with rape and indecent assault against a vulnerable person using force.

The assault occurred in March when the suspect knocked on the victim's door posing as a used goods buyer. After gaining her trust through conversation, he requested to use the bathroom. Once inside and realizing the victim was alone, he sexually assaulted her before fleeing.

The victim's family later reported the incident to Huai Yot Police Station. Following investigation, police identified the suspect and obtained a court arrest warrant. The suspect was found hiding in the area and apprehended on May 12.

During interrogation, the suspect confessed, claiming he lost control after seeing the elderly victim alone at home. He has been transferred to Huai Yot Police Station for further legal proceedings.

A 35-year-old Ethiopian woman created a sensation after naturally giving birth to quintuplets following 12 years of attempting to have children. With tears streaming down her face, she expressed: "I only asked for one child, but God gave me five."

Bedriaya Adam from Harari State, Ethiopia, delivered five babies—four boys and one girl—at Hiwot Fana Specialized Hospital amid joy from her family and community. Doctors confirmed all five newborns are healthy, with birth weights ranging from 1.3 to 1.4 kilograms, and remain under close medical supervision.

Dr. Mohamed Noor Abdullahi, the hospital's medical director, revealed that this pregnancy occurred naturally without fertility treatments or IVF, services the hospital does not offer. Naturally conceiving quintuplets is extremely rare, with odds of approximately 1 in 55 million.

Medical staff explained that the mother received continuous prenatal care and was informed in advance of carrying multiple babies before undergoing a successful cesarean delivery. Bedriaya recounted that doctors initially informed her of four babies, but when she delivered, there was a fifth—shocking and delighting her beyond words.

She reflected on the difficult years preceding this miracle, facing sadness, stress, and questions from those around her about her childlessness. Her husband had a child from a previous marriage and often reassured her it was enough, but she harbored deep longing for her own child. She spent 12 years in prayer, eventually feeling her pleas were answered.

Although currently a small-scale farmer worried about expenses raising five children, she believes her community and the government will provide support.

Narathiwat — The 4th Army Region held a water blessing ceremony and memorial service for Sergeant Major Adisorn Kambunchoo, a ranger with the 1106 Ranger Company who was killed by a bomb planted by militants while on duty. Security officials have identified the perpetrators as members of the Tawajep-Sulkipli group, with authorities intensifying efforts to bring them to justice.

On May 12, at Wat Bang Nara in Muang District, Narathiwat Province, Maj. Gen. Nartip Phoynanok, commander of the 4th Army Region, presided over the ceremony honoring Sergeant Major Adisorn Kambunchoo of the 11th Special Operations Ranger Regiment. The officer died in a bombing incident on May 11 while performing duties on the Sungai Kolok-Lok-Waeng road in Ban Namkhao Village, Kayu Khalah Subdistrict, Waeng District.

Senior military and government officials attended, including Deputy Governor Nakhrinun Kamrai, representing Narathiwat's provincial governor. Wreaths were presented on behalf of Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, Defense Minister Anudom Boonthermcharoen, Army Commander Phinnakrit Khlaewplodthuk, and the 4th Army Region command.

The 4th Army Region presented the Bangrachan Medal, a certificate of honor, and funeral assistance funds to the deceased's family. Provincial authorities also provided 500,000 baht in compensation, 30,000 baht from the Thai Hearts Foundation, and 5,000 baht from the Red Cross. The ranger's remains were then transported to his hometown in Khon Kaen Province for religious rites.

Authorities are actively collecting evidence and reviewing surveillance footage to pursue the perpetrators.
