Vietnam, which was praised for quickly containing the spread of novel Coronavirus at just over 400 cases and no deaths, has for the first time reported local transmission of the disease, according to reports.

Since Saturday, a total of four new infections emerged in the country. According to a report in the Guardian, a 57-year-old man who tested positive in Da Nang on Saturday was the first case of community infection since April. Authorities are evacuating nearly 80,000 tourists, mostly domestic, from Da Nang, and re-imposed restrictions for the next 14 days.
