Binh Duong province pilots COVID-19 home quarantine

In order to be eligible for home quarantine, houses must stand separately from others and warning signs should be put in front of the houses. The room for the quarantined person must be separate from the family’s common spaces and does not share the central air-conditioning system, and be disinfected daily.

Those under home isolation must strictly adhere to relevant quarantine rules, including not leaving the isolation rooms during the quarantine period, not meeting other people or pets; installing and turning on the Vietnam Health Declaration or Bluezone apps; and making health declaration, conducting self-health monitoring, and updating information on the apps.

The elderly and persons with underlying health conditions needing medical care must not stay at the same houses with those under home isolation.

Besides, other people sharing the same houses must not directly contact the F1s. They should also carry out self-health monitoring and minimise leaving the house.

Medical workers need to collect information and examine the health condition of the F1s and their carers every day.
