The ministry has sent an urgent notice on this issue to the
Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam (CAA), asking it to instruct airlines to
notify their customers.
Those who come to Vietnam for diplomatic and official purposes will be
quarantined at diplomatic agencies or accommodation establishments under the
monitoring of authorities and medical agencies, according to the notice.
The ministry has also ordered airlines to prepare compulsory medical declaration
forms to the passengers, check their body temperature before they enter the
terminals, and sterilise the planes.
Airport authorities will have to coordinate with relevant agencies to disperse
passengers at the quarantine areas in the terminals in order to avoid
congestion, the notice said, adding every passenger should not be kept there for
more than 90 minutes./.
