According to the ministry, many people have become complacent and do not follow preventive regulations as more covid cases are reported during the Reunification Holiday. In order to deal with the problem, the ministry asked the city authorities to strictly follow the official documents issued by prime minister and the ministry about Covid-19 prevention.
Local authorities were asked to suspend all festivals and limit the number of cultural, sports and tourism activities. They were also asked to carry out inspection more frequently and deal with violators. The management boards of historical sites, museums and tourist sites must make sure to implement all required measures.
Public awareness campaigns should be regularly run. Hanoi, HCM City and several cities have ordered to close nightclubs and karaoke bars. Dong Hoi City also suspended many events that were intended to take place during its Culture-Tourism Week.
