All karaoke parlors, bars and discotheques in Hanoi suspended operations from 0:00 on February 1 in a bid to contain the spread of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2.
Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has ordered all people living and working in the northern provinces of Hai Duong and Quang Ninh not to travel to other localities, to contain the spread of the coronavirus following the confirmation of over 80 cases of community transmitted cases of COVID-19 in the two provinces over the past 24 hours.
The risk of another outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic is still latent, therefore, Hanoi leaders have asked local agencies to be vigilant and strengthen measures to prevent the pandemic from spreading.
As many countries around the world have struggled to stave off COVID-19, Vietnam has done a sterling job in prevention and control. Not only local people but also foreigners remain safe and sound in the country.
