The mysteries of the Covid-19 epidemic

Major General Le Van Cuong informed that epidemics in the world have many complicated developments. Typically, 700 years ago, the Black Death pandemic killed 40% of the world's population. 100 years ago, the Spanish flu pandemic infected 100 million people, killing about 30-40 million people. This time, the Covid-19 pandemic is shaking the world.

Up to now, the Covid-19 epidemic has many unsolved mysteries and it is not known when a specific vaccine will be available.

With such complicated developments, countries need to have appropriate strategies to prevent epidemics.

In the fight against Covid-19, Vietnam has emerged as a world example. However, given the complicated developments of the epidemic, we need to be highly vigilant in prevention.

The world is "awakening"

In the development of world relations, China is emerging in many fields. There are complex and sensitive scientific fields that China is holding. China is also emerging as the world's factory, becoming a country that dares to "challenge" the world.

After the Covid-19 pandemic and China's actions in the East Sea, many countries in the world have "awakened" to China's ambitions. Many countries and political-economic-social organizations in the world have consolidated their strategies and changed their status.

The current situation has pushed tensions between the US and China to a new level. In the East Sea, China has increased its illegal activities and many countries are condemning it. In particular, Vietnam is also having exchanges and resolving disputes in the spirit of determination, perseverance, and firmly protecting the independence, sovereignty, unity, and territorial integrity of the Fatherland; maintaining a peaceful and stable environment for national development. Our country advocates expanding and deepening foreign relations; taking advantage of opportunities, overcoming challenges, effectively integrating into the international community in new conditions, and continuing to enhance the country's position and prestige in the international arena.
