Top 10 Foggers and Disinfectants for Southern Thailand Flood Shelters: Lessons from Thailand's DDC Rushes Flu Vaccines to Flooded Songkhla After Over 1,000 Cases in Two Weeks (2025)
Krungthep Turakij reported the Department of Disease Control rushing flu vaccines to high-risk people in flooded southern Thailand, especially Songkhla, after over 1,000 cases from 20 November to 3 December 2025, with vaccination points at Hat Yai airport and Central Hat Yai. What should shelters prepare?
The Real Story from the News: After the Water Recedes, Illness Follows
Krungthep Turakij reported on 5 December 2025 over 1,000 flu cases in Songkhla from 20 November to 3 December 2025, most among people aged 20 to 29.
The DDC opened vaccination points at Hat Yai airport and Central Festival Hat Yai and warned to watch for diarrhoea, leptospirosis and dengue after floods recede; hotline 1422.
Why Choosing the Right Equipment Matters
Shelters in Hat Yai and southern flood zones house evacuees together in schools, temples and halls, where flu spreads fast. Vaccination for high-risk groups is the main measure; masks, handwashing, separating feverish people, safe drinking water and cleaning toilets and sleeping areas reduce both flu and post-flood diseases.

Prefer Not to Do It Yourself? Use a Professional Service
If buying equipment is not practical or the area is too large, use the World Health Disinfection disinfection service or ozone treatment service. The team wears full protective equipment, chooses products to suit the germ and surface, and reports after the job.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which diseases follow floods? A: The DDC warned of acute diarrhoea, leptospirosis and dengue besides flu, and urged safe drinking and household water.
Q: How long before the area can be used? A: After ULV fogging, areas are typically usable about 30 minutes later. For ozone treatment, no people or pets may be inside and the room must be ventilated before use.
Q: Can I get a tax invoice? A: Yes. Tax invoices are issued and 3% withholding tax is supported. Call 065-556-6294 or LINE @whd268.
Health References
Follow disease updates from Thailand's Department of Disease Control (hotline 1422) and the World Health Organization. Disinfection reduces germs in the environment and is not medical treatment; anyone with symptoms should see a doctor.
