When the first infection was found, Vietnam promptly took experience from acute respiratory illness SARS treatment to ward off the pandemic.

The article cited JP Morgan bank’s forecast as saying that the Vietnamese economy is expected to grow by nearly 3.2 percent this year before reaching 7.1 percent next year. It is similar to the International Monetary Fund’s prediction for around 7 percent growth in 2021./.
