National steering committee meets for Covid-19 prevention
VTV.vn - From today, March 5th, Vietnam Airlines will be suspending all flights to South Korea, whilst Vietjet will be suspending its flights from March 7.

This was announced at a meeting of the National Steering Committee for COVID-19 Prevention and Control on Wednesday. At the meeting, Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam demanded that all citizens from South Korea, Italy, Iran, and other nations report their schedules to the authorities.

If South Korean citizens do not adhere to these instructions, they will be quarantined just as Vietnamese who have returned from epidemic areas have.

Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam also requested the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Science and Technology to evaluate the Covid-19 Diagnostic Kit of the Military Medical Academy and Việt Á Company and put it into production if it meets all.
