14 new cases emerged in Da Nang, 岘港 a central coastal city popular with domestic tourists. Another case was reported in nearby Quang Ngai Province.
Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc on Monday ordered Da Nang residents to re-implement social distancing and close all non-essential services.
He said the response had to be “decisive” but that he was not yet ordering a total lockdown of the city.
