Border officers and soldiers patrolling at border gates and checkpoints in Tay Ninh province will be prioritized for nearly 1,000 doses of Covid-19 vaccine.

The COVID-19 checkpoint of Sì Lờ Lầu Border Guard Station in the northern province of Lai Châu has been engulfed in fog and frost almost around the clock in the last few days.

The COVID-19 epidemic checkpoint, which is located close to the borderline, has been home to three border officers and soldiers who are on duty 24/7 to prevent people from entering and leaving Vietnam illegally.
