According to Prime Minister Chinh, the pandemic has challenged and revealed the limitations of all health systems globally, including in developed countries.
As the pandemic, though basically under control, continues to infect Vietnamese people, Mr. Chinh asked the country not to let down its guard, to step up vaccination, to consider a 4th dose of vaccination, and to learn from the international experience of vaccinating children 5 to 12 years old.
