According to the Ministry of Health, after the patient number 17 was announced, Hanoi quickly set up a blockade from the intersection of Truc Bach - Ngu Xa to the intersection with Chau Long street, from house number 79 to 139, on the road longer than five hundred meters. The whole neighborhood with 22 households, 176 people of the capital is in an isolated area for 14 days.

Being isolated, the pace of life in this street also slows down. The 39 Chau Long coffee shop also closed since the morning of March 7.

On March 8 this year, only flowers are not distributed in isolated areas. As an isolated man in that area said, when the epidemic was over, he would take his wife to eat buffet and listen to music like on March 8 every year.
