Three Vietnamese patients were announced free of the novel coronavirus in Hanoi on Monday, bringing the national tally of active cases down to 57.

Treated at Hanoi’s National Hospital of Tropical Diseases, two of the three, a 15-year-old and a 24-year-old, hail from Ha Loi Village, a major outbreak hub where a four-week lockdown was lifted two weeks ago. The teen girl was confirmed positive on April 10, and the other on April 13.

The third patient, 22, is from the northern province of Bac Giang. She was studying in Japan and returned on April 22. She was confirmed positive two days later.

Vietnam has recorded 320 Covid-19 cases to date, and 263 of them have recovered. There has been no community transmission for over a month.
