Previously, on June 1, Phong took a taxi from Thuan Thanh (Bac Ninh), got off at Nuoc Ngam bus station (Hanoi), then took a bus back to his hometown. On the morning of June 2, he arrived at his parents' house in Thanh Phuc village, then went to make a medical declaration.
However, in his medical declaration, Phong stated that he was from Thuy Nguyen district (Hai Phong city) and took a bus back to his hometown. Realizing the dishonesty in Nguyen Cong Phong's medical declaration, the Covid-19 Prevention and Control Steering Committee of Dai Dong commune set up a verification team to clarify the matter.

Mr. Nguyen The Tu - Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Dai Dong Commune, Thanh Chuong said: Realizing that citizens returning to the locality from the epidemic area had made dishonest medical declarations, the Steering Committee for Covid-19 Prevention and Control of the commune set up a working group to verify and request citizens to fully and accurately declare information about their place of departure and route before returning to the locality.
Faced with the evidence of the verification team, Phong had to admit that he had returned to his hometown from Thuan Thanh district (Bac Ninh). During the few days back, Nguyen Cong Phong had contact with his biological parents and wife and children in Van Thuong village (Dai Dong commune).
