Devices for measuring body temperature and disinfectants are put at the school gate and in classes. Students are required to wear masks in all classrooms.

"The school has also prepared an isolation room in case there is a suspected case of COVID- 一 九 so health workers can handle it quickly and limit the spread of the virus."

Hồ Thị Thảo Nguyên, vice principal of Trần Phú High School, said students who have not been able to go to school because they are infection cases or F 一, F 二, will continue to be taught online.

Lê Quốc Anh, a  一0th grader from Trần Phú High School, said after being vaccinated, he was very happy to return to the classroom.
