This is the first day of implementing the "Green Shirt Shipper" model by the Ha Huy Tap Ward Youth Union in coordination with the Hong Son Ward Youth Union to support people in medical quarantine areas. Photo: Thanh Cuong

Every morning, the Youth Union secretaries will send a list of essential goods requested by households in the locked-down area to a separate group. From here, the shippers will "receive orders" and disperse to nearby stores and markets to help buy the items. Photo: Thanh Cuong

The shipper group includes 20 members with 10 motorbikes from Ha Huy Tap ward and Hong Son ward. All of them work with enthusiasm and a high sense of responsibility. Photo: Thanh Cuong

The main items that people asked to buy included food, necessities, even clothes and medicine. "Because it's only the second day of the lockdown, there's still a lot of food in reserve, so today the group only received 5 orders. Surely in the following days our group will have more work" - "shipper" Nguyen Thi Truc Phuong said. Photo: Thanh Cuong

Joining the shipper group, all members are fully equipped with protective gear such as masks, gloves, anti-droplet glasses, antiseptic solution, etc. and comply with the 5K recommendations of the Ministry of Health to prevent the spread of the disease. Photo: Thanh Cuong.

At 9am, after finalising the order, two members Nguyen Duc Cong and Nguyen Thi Truc Phuong started delivering the goods. Every day, in the morning from 9am to 10am and in the afternoon from 3pm to 4pm, the shippers will deliver to the nearest checkpoints, convenient for people to pick up. Photo: Thanh Cuong
