PC-Covid is the national Covid-19 prevention and control application of Vietnam. It's available at: www.pccovid.gov.vn.
Sponsored by Vietnam's leading IT corporations BKAV, Viettel, VNPT, FPT Telecom, and CMC Telecom, and backed by the Ministry of Information and Communications, the Ministry of Health, and the Ministry of Public Security, PC-Covid is applicable to people who are living and traveling in Vietnam.
PC-Covid’s functionality will be continuously updated and adjusted under the direction of the National Steering Committee for Covid-19 Prevention and Control, making it most convenient for citizens and pursuant to the nation’s Covid-19 prevention and control strategy in each period.
Information on people's health, travel, and contact is managed in a centralized, unified way and serves no other purpose than pandemic prevention and control. The upgrading of PC-Covid is done automatically while notifications are displayed to users to make sure they know the changes.
PC-Covid has been available for a month but it has already demonstrated its value as a shared application that enables comprehensive and effective pandemic prevention and control for both residents and authorities.
Technology is contributing to Covid-19 prevention and control, according to Nguyen Thanh Liem, Director of the Hanoi Department of Information and Communications.
