At a working session with leaders of the five localities, the PM asked them to continue implementing social distancing and quarantine measures more strictly and effectively, ensuring social security and making sure every citizen could get access to healthcare, while speeding up testing to promptly detect COVID-19 patients.

He also asked to increasing mobile healthcare centres following the Ministry of Health’s guidance as well as organizing vaccinations for people safely and effectively.

PM Chinh stressed that the leaders of the local authorities must bear the responsibility on the efficiency of pandemic prevention and control activities in their locality, and report to higher agencies their problems for timely solutions.

After his recent field trips to localities in HCM City, southern Binh Duong and Dong Nai provinces and the capital city of Hanoi, PM Chinh  who is also head of the National Steering Committee for COVID-19 Prevention and Control, has directed the formation of a command center for COVID-19 prevention and control connecting with 2,594 wards, communes, and townships in 19 cities and provinces applying social distancing measures to keep a close watch on their implementation of pandemic fight directions.
