Health officials announced yesterday they will install 3,000 heart defibrillators in public areas.
Public Health Minister Somsak Chunharas said the automatic external defibrillators will be installed in cities, remote areas and island communities.
The installation phase will be completed within three years. Somsak said the units are easy to use and could increase post-cardiac arrest survival rates up by 45 percent, according to state media.
