Dong Nai will fine people for not wearing face masks or not disposing them properly, following similar policies in Ha Noi and HCM City.
From April 12, a VND200,000 (US$8.5) fine will be imposed on people who are not wearing masks in public.
The provincial police was assigned to coordinate with local authorities to patrol the area and detect unregistered residents and suspected cases to send them to quarantine centres.
The provincial People’s Committee asked the Health Department to work with other agencies in preparing facilities, medicines and human resources to receive Vietnamese returning to the country on repatriation flights.
It was necessary to tighten the management of concentrated quarantine centres, preventing people fleeing the centres. All violations should be strictly dealt with.
Dong Nai Province has recorded two COVID-19 infected cases.
The province has isolated 182 households with about 900 people in Bien Ha city’s Quang Vinh ward for 14 days starting on August 3.
More than 400 are quarantined at provincial concentrated facilities and about 2,300 others are monitored at home.
