According to the Education for Nature Vietnam Centre on Friday, the alliance highly evaluated Vietnam’s achievements in the fight against COVID-19, saying that Vietnam not only minimised infections and fatalities from the disease but also showed its determination to wipe out the risk of wildlife-derived epidemic outbreaks via the issuance of the Prime Minister's Directive No.29/CT-TTg on several urgent measures to control the trading of wildlife.
The alliance also pledged to help Vietnam overcome difficulties and make further strides in preventing pandemics in the future.
