(HBO) - Amid the complicated developments of COVID-19, the Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee on March 19 issued Dispatch No.383/UBND-KGVX on urging local residents to suspend cultural services and gathering activities in order to mitigate the risk of epidemic spread in the locality.
The Chairman of the committee asked the People’s Committees
of the city and districts to urge locals and businesses to suspend cultural
businesses and services, including art performances, film screenings, and
karaoke clubs, thus contributing to COVID-19 prevention and control.
About the organisation of weddings, authorities of wards, communes and
townships were required to coordinate with local mass organisations to call on
households to hold weddings in appropriate time after the epidemic is under
control. In case any wedding time is fixed, households must follow
recommendations by the Health Ministry, and hold the wedding within the family
in the form of wedding announcement instead of sending invitations to the
wedding ceremony in order to limit gatherings, thus protecting health of
relatives and the community.
Regarding the organisation of funerals, the People’s Committees of the city and
districts must assign authorities of wards, communes, and townships to work
closely with mass organisations at the grassroots level to help bereaved families
seriously follow COVID-19 prevention and control measures as guided by the health
care authority, thus preventing epidemic spread in the community.
For relic sites, the People’s Committees and relic site management boards of
the city and districts must halt festivals but not shut down relic and scenic
sites, offer specific instructions as recommended by the medical sector, and urge
visitors to seriously follow prevention and control measures./.
