The data mining techniques included cluster analysis using K-means clustering. The infection data were obtained from the open data of the digital government development agency, Thailand. The dataset consisted of 1,893,941 cumulative cases from January 2020 to October 2021 of the outbreak. The results from clustering consisted of 8 groups. Clustering results determined the three largest, three medium-sized, and the two most minor numbers of infected people, respectively. These clusters represent their activities, namely touching an infected person and checking themselves. The components of emerging diseases in Thailand are closely related to waves, gender, age, nationality, career, behavioral risk, and region. The province of onset was mainly in Bangkok and its vicinity or central Thailand, as well as industrial areas. Adult workers aged 19 to 27 years and 43 to 54 years or over were seeds of new infection sources.</span>
