【 摘 要 】

At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Vietnam was considered one of the most vulnerable countries to the pandemic crisis due to its long border with other countries, especially China, dense population, and limited medical infrastructure. Yet, with a national response plan consisting of strict anti-epidemic measures being timely introduced and rigorous early implementation, Vietnam has managed to keep the number of cases at just over 1,500 among a population of ~100 million people at the end of 2020, second among the countries with the most effective response to the pandemic ( 1 ).
