Notably, the overall recoveries rose to 3,549 after a further 40 coronavirus patients were discharged from hospital after making a successful recovery from the disease.

The same day also saw the nation record two COVID-19 fatalities, bringing the overall death toll to 55, including one at midday and another in the afternoon.

The latest deceased patient was an 88-year-old woman from the northern province of Bac Giang who had been suffering from hypertension, diabetes, heart failure, and senility.

The patient passed away on June 7, with a diagnosis of severe pneumonia caused by the SARS-COV-2 virus, ARDS, septic shock, multi-organ failure, heart failure, hypertension, type two diabetes, and senility.
