The scald wounds covering the body of the 12-year-old Karen girl who fell victim to slavery can be cured although she won't make a perfect recovery, a doctor at Ramathibodi Hospital says.

Bamboo shoots are gathered from near the house and cut into thin slices that are then scalded in hot water.

Water inside a firefighter's garment and trapped against the wearer's skin is dangerous because that water may at any time turn to steam and scald the firefighter, he said.
