In HCM City, 54 people have tested positive for the coronavirus and 40 have been treated and given the all clear.
Nine COVID-19 patients were released from hospital on April afternoon, bringing the total recoveries nationwide to 144.
The authorities are urging people not to break social distancing rules, as many appear to be flaunting regulations, particularly in the major cities of Hanoi and HCM City.
Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has called on law enforcement agencies to swiftly deal with people who are leaving their homes for non-essential reasons.
He also called on the authorities to punish people seen out in public who are not wearing a face mask./.
