He said at an online meeting between the committee and leaders of HCM City, Hai Duong, Hanoi and Quang Ninh on February 13.
Reviewing COVID-19 prevention and control in 13 localities reporting community cases of COVID-19, he affirmed they have controlled the situation. All new COVID-19 cases were recorded in quarantine facilities, posing no risk of community transmission, he said, while urging people to stay vigilant, according to the Vietnam News Agency.
The Health Ministry urges people to strictly follow the 5K principle to stop the spread of the pandemic, particularly during the ongoing Lunar New Year festival, the most important festival in a year for Vietnamese. The 5K principle means Khau trang (Facemask) – Khu khuan (Disinfection) – Khoang cach (Keeping distance) – Khong tap trung dong nguoi (No gathering) – Khai bao y te (Medical declaration)./.
