Almost 97% of COVID-19 patients have fully recovered from the virus in Vietnam.

As of 6am on June 16, Vietnam has confirmed 334 coronavirus cases, of which 323 cases have gone on to make a full recovery, making up nearly 97% of the total. Among the remaining 11 patients, five cases have tested negative for the SARS-CoV-2 virus at least once.

The patient has stopped using all antibiotics and has been given physical therapy twice a day.
