Police officers and officials in 21 districts and Thu Duc City booked many residents for such offenses as failure to wear face masks in public, going outside without proper reasons, participating in gatherings of over two people, and operating non-essential businesses despite a ban, on Friday and Saturday.

District-level administrations issued fines totaling VND841 million ($36,600) for these violations, said Tu Luong, deputy director of the municipal Department of Information and Communications.

Meanwhile, police units imposed another VND389 million ($16,900) worth of fines.

The outbreak here is pretty significant. Last night was the largest totsl yet.

Vaccinations have now increased to more than 5 million out os the total population, but that is only 5% of the Vietnamese population.

America please help more.

(Everyone please help more, but I am American so I am just speaking up for my own country)

Vietnam had almost no cases until 2 months ago, so was taking its time getting vaccinated, while countries such as the USA rapidly deployed lots, and lots of vaccinations.

Now is the time to help here. Please.

Thank you everyone.

:)

(BTW, that is approximately $53,500 USD, total)

America, how about you send around 20,000,000 vaccinations?

Get things started.

112 total deaths from COVID. I bet most of the world wished they were as bad off as Vietnam.

That number is very low because Vietnam had been doing very well at avoiding a large outbreak, for an entire year.

Really up until last month.

However, the numbers here are (rapidly) increasing now.

BTW, you will probably get some anti-vax hate in response to posting this. Please don’t let it get to you. Know that there are people here that don’t agree with that and hope that you and your country get the vaccines and other medical care you guys need during this difficult time.

Counter-offer: How about we send you Jane Fonda? You don’t have to send her back.

We could sweeten the deal, and throw in John F’n Kerry, meathead, Cher, Bette Midler, Ilan Omar, AOC, Pelosi, Schiff for brains, and a ton of others. They are all a bunch of communists anyway. Perhaps they would be happier among their communist friends.

There are three choices. Choice one: Accept the death rate that we have, about 1% of cases will die, even with good treatments. If 40% of a country gets exposed (the estimate for the US), that's about 0.2% of the country dying. That's not a lot worse than 1968-69. But the response we had, shutting down, etc, was a lot worse than 68-69.

Choice two: vaccines.

Choice three: lockdown, medical emegency, 100% tracking, zero privacy forever. Since Vietnam is already a police state, they will choose 3 and add choice 2 over time. The correct choice is a mix of 1 and 2, although some people prefer just choice 1.

Thanks, actually I have not been out of my apartment in a month.

:)

We will see how things go. Last night there was yet another all-time high in new cases, we might see that (begin) to slow down now they’ve basically shut the city down.

Thank you.
