Vietnam may be about to lockdown

Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

Vietnam may be about to lockdown

Post by Element6 »

Heard that Vietnam is on the edge of a potential lockdown after a suspected case of mass cross contamination at Bach Mai hospital in Hanoi.

potentially up to 5000 people exposed

I would not be surprised if the entire country follows, surely Saigon is next?

As per the Prime Minister’s decree, all of Vietnam is in lock-down from today. The last three restaurants in Sa Pa have closed and there was panic buying at the supermarket just now including, surprisingly, a run on toilet paper.

Hanno, what is the latest? A mate of mine in Vinh (I know not exactly the centre of the universe) talked to another mate of mine last night and said that (at least where he is) they have reversed course and things are opening up already. Sounds unlikely I thought. Maybe local/city authorities have some leeway in what/how they enforce things?

Doubt it as this wasa bt decree of the PM. I live in the boonies too, and here everything has come to a standstill.
