Nhat Tan market, a famous flower market in Nhat Tan Ward, Tay Ho District of Hanoi, is distributing shopping stamps on an odd-even day scheme for local residents to go to the local wet market with a view to curbing the novel coronavirus spread.
Chairman of the Nhat Tan Ward People's Committee Dang Huu Tien said that the odd-even day scheme is effective from July 27.
The move aims to minimize the number of people going to the market at one time, avoid crowds, and prevent the Covid-19 pandemic.

In the early morning of July 27, people used the stamps to go to Nhat Tan market. |
At about 5:30 am on July 27, many people in Nhat Tan Ward went to the market to buy food and necessities. |
"We went to each household to distribute the stamps on July 26," said the leader of Nhat Tan Ward. |
Each resident is entitled to one stamp per day to avoid gatherings in the market. |
Those who go to the market are checked for body temperature. |
Many people buy enough food for two days. |
A fence was erected to ensure the distance between people who have to don face masks, wash hands with antiseptic and keep a two-meter distance from each other. |
