The inoculation site is located at the My Dinh National Stadium in Nam Tu Liem district.

Expats have their blood pressure measured, as well as their body temperature, and health checked prior to injection. This is in addition to being given a medical consultation.

Approximately 4,000 foreigners were expected to get vaccinated against the COVID-19 pandemic on Wednesday and Thursday as municipal authorities seek to inject all foreign citizens during the community vaccination stages.

Over recent days the capital has ramped up its vaccination campaign, with a total of 5.4 million doses being administered. At present, 89.5% of people aged 18 and above have now received their first injection.
