The number of people reported to have the flu also increased yesterday by 59 to 1,473, including a 14-year-old schoolgirl in Ubon Ratchathani who attended a Korean boy-band concert in Bangkok last weekend.

Five schools have closed, including Benjama Maharat in the northeastern province where the girl studies.

In Ubon Ratchathani, Wutthikrai Mungmai, a provincial health official, said the results of a lab test confirmed the girl who was at the boy-band concert had contracted the flu.

The girl came down with a fever on Monday and when her condition worsened a day later she sought treatment at Ubonrak Thonburi Hospital, the official said.

The girl, he said, went to a weekend concert by the Korean boyband Dong Bang Shin Ki, at Impact Arena Muang Thong Thani.

The band held two concerts, on Saturday and Sunday. It was unclear which concert she attended.

Mr Wutthikrai said three more students from the same school are thought to have the flu.

Lab test results are due tomorrow.

After the infection was confirmed, Benjama Maharat School announced it would close until next Thursday.

Four more schools across the country have also decided to suspend classes, to allow students with flu to recover over the long weekend.

They were Ang Thong Patthamaroj Witthayakhom in Ang Thong, Udon Pittayanukul in Udon Thani, Wiset Suksa in Prachuap Khiri Khan and Ban Bang Kapi in Bangkok.

Ang Thong Patthamaroj Witthayakhom School's principal said more than 100 students came down with fever yesterday, so the school decided to close for the sake of their safety.
