BANGKOK -- Thailand has confirmed that it has found at least 200 people infected by the Zika virus so far this year, the second-largest figure in Southeast Asia after Singapore, which has seen over 300 cases.The Thai government had been reluctant to reveal the figure, in a possible attempt to protect its crucial tourism sector, which accounts for roughly 10% of the country's gross domestic product and is the only bright spot in the sluggish economy.The latest tally as of Sept. 12 was more than double the Health Ministry's previous update more than two months ago, when it stood at 97.
