According to Mr. Nguyen Ho Son - Chairman of Lang Thanh Commune People's Committee, although the commune does not prohibit market meetings, only propagates that buying and selling at the market must comply with epidemic prevention regulations, but people in the area also stop holding markets to prevent the epidemic. One advantage is that people are basically proactive in food and food; those who need dry goods can go to the grocery stores near their homes.
Mr. Hoang Danh Truyen - Vice Chairman of Yen Thanh District People's Committee said that although the district did not ban any markets, the local markets were still deserted, with no one coming to buy and sell. The reason is that people had proactively stocked goods in advance, especially in rural areas, most households were proactive in providing some food and foodstuffs on site for a certain period of time, so people were assured to stay at home to prevent the epidemic, only going out when absolutely necessary./.
