Speaking at the event, Dung assessed that, after four days of Hanoi implementing the order, which lasts for 15 days, the implementation is still not balanced, urging for the local authorities and relevant units to strictly comply with the social distancing requirements.
He requested the city from upper to the grassroots levels to unify the social distancing implementation and organise it in a synchronous and serious manner.
Local authorities must comprehensively review and evaluate the epidemic prevention and control work, as well as actively increasing the intensity and density of inspection and supervision.

At the same time, local authorities must work with each agency, unit and business to ensure strict compliance with the regulations.
