Vietnam will resume issuing e-visas to citizens from 80 countries from 1 July, the government announced, though it was unclear whether quarantine measures would be lifted.

The country imposed a blanket ban on foreigners entering the country in March as part of its aggressive response to the pandemic, which has also involved mass quarantines and expansive contact tracing.

So far, Vietnam has not reported any coronavirus deaths.
