Businesses that have failed to meet COVID-19 prevention and control requirements must be suspended, Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam said at a meeting in Hanoi on June 11.
Hanoi has recently recommended the Government direct competent ministries and sectors to timely issue guidance on meting out punishment to violations of COVID-19 prevention rules in the capital city amidst the new COVID-19 resurgence.
Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has requested strict punishment for violations of COVID-19 prevention rules committed by individuals and organisations, which had resulted in infections in the community recently.
Measures to ensure safety during the upcoming holidays on the occasion of the National Reunification Day (April 30) and the International Labour Day (May 1) were discussed at a meeting of the National Steering Committee for COVID-19 Prevention and Control on April 29.
