The northern province of Hai Duong, Vietnam’s largest hotspot in the latest Covid-19 outbreak, will lift province-wide social distancing measures and embrace a new normal from April 1.

This was decided by the Standing Board of the provincial Party Committee at a meeting on March 29 reviewing efforts against Covid-19.

The move came as the northern province, around 60 kilometers east of Hanoi, has successfully contained the pandemic outbreak, with many areas having recorded no community transmissions for the past 20 days.

“All lockdowns across Hai Duong have been lifted. The province will shift to a new normal in which we both drastically fight the coronavirus and take action to conduct socio-economic development tasks”, said Pham Xuan Thang, secretary of the provincial Party Committee.

The secretary of the provincial Party Committee also warned of a possible resurgence of the virus, and asked the province to view fighting Covid-19 as a regular and ongoing task in the “new normal”.

Secretary Thang stressed the outbreaks could still recur if the local authorities are careless and let their guard down, and that the leaders will primarily be held accountable for the situation under their jurisdiction.
