Tracking down people who are linked with those positive with the virus remains one of measures to prevent contagion.

Vietnam’s Ministry of Health has called on all passengers who were aboard eight flights that carried coronavirus-infected patients to contact health authorities for checkups.
In an announcement released on Monday, the ministry required the passengers to contact with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in localities for being applied corresponding measures.

Over the past 10 days, the country has reported 45 cases coming from or traveling across epidemic-hit countries, including the UK, the US, France, Qatar, South Korea, Russia, Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand.
