The ban means people are not allowed to leave their homes. Agencies, offices and units minimize the number of people working at the headquarters, except for the forces in charge of pandemic prevention and control. During the week-long order, Department of Health will perform mass Covid-19 testing throughout the city to detect and isolate coronavirus cases.
Da Nang has seen the number of infections rising steadily with more complicated COVID clusters, especially at Hoa Cuong wholesale market, which has been shut down as being linked to at least 20 infections.
