Joining hands to fight the pandemic
Facing complicated developments of Covid-19 pandemic, the provincial Youth Union timely updated and grasped the documents of the Central and the provincial Steering Committee for Covid-19 prevention and control while providing news, articles and posters about the pandemic happenings.
The junior youth unions are directed to post on the youth union’s social network the good, creative and effective models, good people and good deeds in the pandemic fight.

Currently, 213,000 youths have finished health declaration and nearly 209,000 citizens have been guided to conduct health declaration.
The youth unions in the entire province have mobilised on-site resources to support the pandemic fight while joining hands with the local steering committee to perform duties at the checkpoints over the province. The youths are tasked to check temperature, remind people about social distancing and participate in the rehearsal to respond a possible scenario.
The youth unions worked out the motto “each youth is a propagandist, a good example in the pandemic fight”. To that end, the youths designed hundreds of eye-catching and wide-spreading posters and banners with the applications and software on the social networks.
They also established the facebook fanpage in English to spread the latest and most precise information about Covid-19 pandemic to support foreigners living and working in Vietnam.
