Dr Taweesilp Visanuyothin doesn't only give us brief daily summaries of the Covid-19 situation on television. Recently, he's made his way to social media to warn us to protect ourselves from the virus.

Now, we can see the spectacled psychiatrist with his signature warm smile in the form of a cartoon character in a special set of Line Stickers called "More Taweesilp".
The collection comprises 24 animated stickers featuring the well-loved doctor in a dark suit with a light blue necktie gesturing with each short message in a cheerful fashion.
All of the messages are in Thai and cover general words of greetings, thanks, farewells, encouragement and also warning.
Dr Taweesilp, affectionately called "More Taweesilp", has become a household face ever since he was appointed spokesman for the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration last year.
His ability to explain complicated issues to people using easy language, coupled with his rhetorical skills and gentle and polite personality has made him one of the favourite figures people are willing to listen to in their fight against the Covid-19.
The set is available for download on the Line Store for 60 baht and has no expiry date. All proceeds will go to support charity works at the 10th Public Health Region, Ministry of Public Health.
