The sources of transmission have been identified in the northern provinces of Ha Nam, Yen Bai and Vinh Phuc by the Ministry of Health.

At least 20 other infection cases have been documented in four localities namely Ha Nam, Ha Noi, Hung Yen, HCMC, all linked to this man.
Meanwhile, a quarantine site in Yen Bai Province designated for isolating Chinese and Indian experts upon arriving in Viet Nam. Authorities also found that at least two Chinese nationals tested positive for the virus after undergoing 14-day quarantine there.
