Vietnamese-Americans living in various U.S. states are taking strict preventive measures to protect themselves and others amid a resurgence in Covid-19 caused by a new variant.
Thu Maulden, an ethnic Vietnamese living in Arkansas, said the state had the highest number of new cases caused by the Delta variant in the country.
Maulden said local authorities underline the importance of mask wearing and social distancing but have not made them mandatory. Some restaurants ask customers to follow the rules but cannot enforce them.
