What has Vietnam done that there is not a single death from Corona?
Code-19 infection is spreading all over the world, but there is a country where it is rarely seen.
The country is Vietnam, which is connected to China, where the epidemic began. Vietnam also has a population of over 90 million.
But as of April 23, only 270 cases of code 19 infection have been reported in the country. Not only that, code-19 has not killed a single person in Vietnam.
When the virus began to spread, Vietnam alerted its people and prepared for war on a large scale to fight the epidemic, but now restrictions are being lifted and schools are allowed to reopen.
This raises the question of what Vietnam has done that other countries can follow as a model.
Decision to close borders
The first case of corona infection was reported in Vietnam in late January.
In an immediate decision, Vietnam closed its border with China completely.
In addition, thermal screening of every citizen from other countries was conducted at all major airports.
The government realized that corona infection was visible in people arriving from outside. And then the government ordered everyone coming from abroad to be quarantined for 14 days.
The government paid the hotel bill to quarantine the people. At the end of March, Vietnam banned all foreigners from entering.
It also barred foreigners of Vietnamese descent and family members of Vietnamese nationals.
Emphasis on 'contact tracing'
After isolating people infected with the corona virus, people who came in contact with them were identified and all of them underwent corona testing.
Not only that, but Vietnam has also succeeded in producing low cost testing kits in its own country.
Vietnam does not have as many resources as South Korea or Germany for large-scale corona testing.
Due to a lack of resources, the Vietnamese government resorted to low-cost methods, aggressively locating people for infection testing, and making arrangements to isolate infected people.
Awaken the society
The Vietnamese government has launched a nationwide campaign to raise awareness about the corona virus.
The campaign raised awareness about coronavirus prevention through short videos and posters.
Recalling Vietnam's wisdom in the historic Vietnam-US war, Prime Minister Gwen Yuan-fuk called on the people to be prepared to fight the epidemic for a long time.
"Vietnamese society is awake," said Carl Thiar, a professor at the University of New South Wales, Canberra. There is a party system.
The police system, the army and the party implement the decision which is taken at the highest level. The top leadership of the government also makes good decisions during such challenges.
