Lyrics of the folk song "Join hands to fight the epidemic" were composed by Meritorious Artist Ha Quang Duc. |
The way of propaganda in disease prevention is very specific: "To prevent Covid, we must isolate, to fight the epidemic, we must also isolate. Limit contact when going out into society. Habits should change now. Wear a mask when going out in crowded places. Avoid gathering in crowded places. Do not gather in crowded places. Remember to wash your hands with antibacterial soap, all of us must do it together, determined to defeat the insolent Covid enemy.".
