Covid-19: Vietnam asks Apple suppliers to find vaccines

Suppliers from Apple, Samsung and others have received instructions from Vietnam around vaccines for Covid-19. Different groups need to find vaccines to make them accessible to their employees.

“The government encourages companies to find Covid-19 vaccines for their workers”, Bui Hoang Mai, head of the industrial park management board of the northern province of Bắc Ninh, told Bloomberg. Samsung, for example, has factories on site that manufacture its smartphones.

Bắc Ninh authorities have ordered factories to set up on-site sleeping arrangements for workers and put in place other procedures to allow operations to continue while containing the virus.

So far, the Ministry of Health has sent 200,000 doses of vaccine to be administered to B travailleursc Ninh workers within a week. But that will not be enough, hence the need for suppliers to Apple, Samsung and others to find vaccines.

To date, more than one million Vietnamese have received their first dose of the vaccine. This represents about 1% of the population. At the same time, 28,500 people were fully vaccinated on site according to the Ministry of Health.
