Bui Van Manh, deputy director of the department, said that the department had notified the travel agencies about the suspension of tours to and from HCMC as required by the authority.

Manh added that the travel suspension would remain in place until the southern city contains the spread of the novel coronavirus, which means the city should not record any new fresh cases via community transmission for 14 days, especially at locations that are linked to the newly detected coronavirus patients.

Since December 1, HCMC has not reported new locally transmitted cases.
