Vietnam will halt incoming passenger flights in the coming two weeks, according to a government report released on Sunday.
Flights from Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City to other locations and vice versa will also be reduced as much as possible, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc said.
Lottery services will also be suspended for 15 days from April 1.
The Vietnamese government announced containment measures earlier in the week, including a ban of gatherings of more than 20 people and suspension of non-essential services.
