Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Nguyen Hong Linh said that in "green" areas, people can work and live normally in some fields, however, people should not gather in groups of more than 10 or 20 people.
He was speaking at the provincial Steering Committee for COVID-19 Prevention and Control’s meeting on Wednesday, adding that checkpoints in the red zones (zones with COVID-19 cases) are still in place.
Also at the meeting, Linh affirmed that the province's policy was to empower businesses to take the initiative.
Leaders of enterprises have the right to decide on the reopening of production and business activities. If re-operating, enterprises must set up a safe production plan.
Provincial authorities will support and guide businesses in epidemiological knowledge, isolation and treatment (in case an outbreak occurs), he said.
Currently, the province is conducting COVID-19 testing in many areas.
Authorities of districts and communes need to mobilize people to actively complete their responsibilities in the fight against the pandemic.
In case people cannot be tested at a fixed location, the medical workers can visit houses.
