White lines painted in Hanoi's wet market to enforce social distancing
The local authorities require shoppers to stand before the white lines, drawn two meters away from the stalls, to prevent close contacts between them.
Authorities of Hoan Kiem district in the heart of Hanoi have painted two white lines along Yen Thai street to keep distance between vendors and buyers at street stores to ensure social distancing rules during the pandemic time, local media reported.
Yen Thai street, which is about 150m long only, houses more than 30 grocery stores and is a wet market.
Therefore, the local authorities require shoppers to stand before the white lines, drawn two meters away from the stalls, to prevent close contact between them.
