VTV.vn - Vietnam has yet to find a case of Zika virus. However, the Ministry of Health said that the possibility of infection in Vietnam is high, as the virus has appeared in other neighbouring countries.

Therefore, preventative measures are being carried out across the country, including the south central coastal province of Khanh Hoa, which suffers the highest risk.

Besides founding response teams at national and regional levels, the Ministry of Health asked healthcare units in localities to continue supervising the situation and communicating effectively in order to respond immediately in the event that Zika infection appears in Vietnam.
