As reported by Lao Dong, the southern province of Bac Lieu welcomed 375 Vietnamese nationals returning to Vietnam on a repatriation flight from Korea. Notably, there were 37 children under 24 months old on board the flight without parents or any relatives accompanied.

During their mandatory 2-week-long quarantine, however, they are not left "alone". The staff at the quarantine zone has been given them great health and daily personal care.

Medical staff makes regular visits to each room to check on the children's health.

"A lot of adults have been volunteering to enter the quarantine zone and take care of the children so far. All must be negative for nCoV, in stable health and strictly follow quarantine regulations. Plus, they must pay quarantine fees themselves", Mr. Bui Quoc Nam - director of Bac Lieu Health Department, Deputy Head of the Steering Committee for Disease Prevention and Control COVID-19 in Bac Lieu Province, told Lao Dong.
