Before embarking on their journey to the pandemic hotspot of Bac Giang province on May 31 to treat severe COVID-19 cases, the 10 medical workers from Da Nang Hospital were trained carefully. They count among health workers with the most experience, from dealing with COVID-19 during previous outbreaks.
Bearing in mind the sacred mission of frontline soldiers in the fight against COVID-19, the medical workers have put aside personal matters to focus on supporting their comrades in the pandemic hotspot.
Having been hit by all three previous COVID-19 outbreaks, the “white-coat soldiers” from Da Nang city fully understand the unrelenting pressure involved. The doctors and nurses from Da Nang are determined to help their peers in Bac Giang win the battle against the pandemic./.
All possible measures must be taken and all obstacles must be addressed to soon secure COVID-19 vaccines, said Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam, who is also Head of the National Steering Committee for COVID-19 Prevention and Control, at a meeting on May 31.

The closure began immediately and will last until further notice.
Vice-chairman Dung also requested authorities in local districts and wards to suspend all makeshift markets as these locations pose a high risk of virus spread.
Earlier the same day, Hanoi chairman Chu Ngoc Anh asserted that unnecessary meetings and crowded events would have to be canceled.
