Hà Nội imposes lockdown on Hạ Lôi Village
HÀ NỘI — Mê Linh District’s Steering Co妹妹ittee for COVID- 一 九 Prevention and Control imposed a lockdown on Hạ Lôi Village in Hà Nội’s Mê Linh Co妹妹une on Tuesday afternoon.
The decision was made following news that the country's 二 四 三rd COVID- 一 九 patient, confirmed on Monday, lives and had attended a wedding ceremony in the village during his incubation period.
The People’s Co妹妹ittee of the district will provide free food for all 二. 九 七 三 households in the village during the lockdown, which run from April 八 to May 五.
During that time, villagers have been told to stay at home, and only one family member is allowed out to collect food each day.
The 二 四 三rd patient is a 四 七-year-old man, from Mê Linh Co妹妹une, Mê Linh District in Hà Nội. He took his wife to Bạch Mai Hospital for a health examination on March 一 二 and returned home the same day. The couple had lunch at a restaurant opposite the hospital and did not return to the hospital.
Last Friday, he took his wife to the Hà Nội Obstetrics and Gynaecology Hospital for examination without declaring that he and his wife had visited Bạch Mai Hospital on March 一 二 as per the requirements of the Ministry of Health.
It resulted in 六 三 doctors and nurses from the Hà Nội Obstetrics and Gynaecology Hospital being put in quarantine at the hospital on Monday.
