Deputy Minister of Health Nguyen Thanh Long was speaking at an online training conference to deal with the COVID-19 epidemic in Hanoi on Sunday: “The testing is free of charge. We asked localities to make a list of foreigners who have been in Vietnam for the past 14 days for testing. The testing results must be made available within 24 hours. We’ll shorten this waiting time in the future”.

The Ministry of Health is working with telecommunication groups in Vietnam to promote IT application in health declaration.
