The others, who are still quarantined and treated in healthcare centers, are getting speedy recovery without any functional complications.

The MoH asked localities throughout the country to continue strict supervision over the movement of A/H1/N1 cases so as to prevent an outbreak.

People from the infected areas should limit their contacts with others and protect themselves.

All the A/H1N1 patients or suspected cases should not be transported to hospitals by public means, particularly planes, said the health agency.

Recently, some northern provinces in Việt Nam were hit by devastating floods. Thus, the MoH asked residents there to clean surrounding environment and pay attention to protect their health.
