Addressing a conference on the implementation of the national COVID-19 vaccination campaign on June 15, Long said that eight storage facilities will be installed, with one in the High Command of Hanoi Capital, and seven in seven military regions across the nation.

The minister emphasised the need to ensure absolute safety from vaccine transportation and preservation to vaccination organisation.
