patient had five tests and all tests were negative for SARS-CoV-2 from May 25 to

they returned from the UAE on a specially-arranged repatriation flight that
landed in the southern province of Can Tho on May 3.
They were immediately quarantined upon arrival and posed no risks of community
transmission.
Currently, the patients have no fever, no cough, no shortness of breath and are
in a stable condition. They will continue to be quarantined and monitored for
