The first measure is to launch two health declaration applications for people, one for Vietnamese citizens and one for foreigners living in Vietnam. People are required to constantly update their health situation so that the government has a stable database.
The second "secret" is that Vietnam has produced a set of test kits for SARS-CoV-2, meeting the standard of the World Health Organization (WHO), to screen Covid-19 suspected patients.
The third important measure is installing mobile disinfection chambers for people. The chamber has a 360-degree fog-type disinfectant spray system, which is said to eliminate 90% of bacteria and viruses on the body.
Previously, the Diplomat also published an article about the efforts of the Government of Vietnam in preventing the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. The article stated that during the fight against the epidemic, the government of Vietnam always pays attention to and places the health and life of the people above all else.
