Dong Nai runs out of isolation wards for returnees from abroad

​Dong Nai functional forces organized the reception of Vietnamese citizens quarantine in June 2020 at People’s Security University, An Phuoc commune, Long Thanh district.

The dispatch stated that, a host of Covid-19 cases by community transmission have been reported in Hai Duong and Quang Ninh, leading to the complicated situation of Covid-19 nationwide.

Dong Nai is forecast to feel the impact of the Covid-19 resurgence as it is a densely populated locality and is home to scores of industrial zones, with many workers being local residents of Hai Duong and Quang Ninh. Dong Nai had to prepare human resources and all of its quarantine facilities to assist with inspecting, tracking and quarantining those returning to the province from the virus-hit regions in the country. As a result, the province does not have spare quarantine facilities as well as available human resources to receive and quarantine Vietnamese citizens returning home from overseas like it did before.

Dong Nai PPC Chairman have sought approval from the High Command of Military Region 7 over a decision to stop receiving and quarantining Vietnamese citizens returning home on flights in the coming time.
