Through initial verification, these people confessed that they were all working in Laos. Due to fear of being quarantined to prevent Covid-19 in Laos, they escaped back to Vietnam by illegally crossing the border.
Currently, these 5 people have been disinfected, had their body temperature measured, made medical declarations, and were quarantined to prevent the Covid-19 epidemic according to regulations. They will then be prosecuted for illegal entry.
