Authorities in Ho Chi Minh City have decided to shut down local bars, discos, and karaoke parlors following the recent detection of a community-base COVID-19 infection.
Bars, discos, and karaoke parlors in the metropolis will be closed from 6:00 pm on Friday, the first day of the weekend holiday marking the Reunification Day (April 30) and International Workers’ Day (May 1), until further notice.
Other services are required to strictly comply with COVID-19 prevention and control measures, chairman of the municipal People’s Committee Nguyen Thanh Phong said at a meeting on Friday morning.
