Residents cheer as they join in with a "clap for our carers" event in Bangkok, Thailand, tonight (March 29).

Locals and expats in the city were encouraged to take part in five minutes of clapping at 8 p.m. to show support for medical workers around the world helping to battle the COVID-19 coronavirus.

Footage from apartment blocks and a supermarket in the Thai capital shows how dozens of people living in the tower went to their balcony to join in with the applause.

Many of the residents were also cheering.

Thailand has so far recorded at least 1,388 infections and seven deaths leading to travel restrictions and most businesses in the country being closed. People living in the country have also been encouraged to stay inside.
