PM orders completion of COVID-19 vaccine second dose by year’s endPrime Minister Phạm Minh Chính has asked localities to speed up COVID-19 vaccinations as the pandemic rages on across the nation and infections continue to rise. The Ministry of Health ordered localities to review and reflect, as well as fix problems in the management and treatment of COVID patients. Northern and north-central Vietnam will start experiencing biting cold weather between December 26 and 28. The health centre will verify information about the cases such as address, phone number and test results and immediately respond to any data errors within 24 hours. Ho Chi Minh City has been the hardest-hit locality since the fourth virus wave hit Vietnam in late April, with over 500,000 cases.
