The Ministry of Health said on Wednesday that 317 out of 332 COVID-19 patients have been given the all-clear, and so far there have been no fatalities.
15 patients are still in treatment, but 6 of them have tested negative at least once.
A 43-year-old British pilot, the most serious case of novel coronavirus still receiving treatment in Vietnam, has made a miraculous recovery. He can now move his hands and communicate more with the doctors.
9,000 people who have had close contact with COVID-19 patients or who arrived in Vietnam from pandemic hot spots are currently being quarantined.
