A man in Vietnam has been sentenced to five years in prison for spreading the coronavirus
Globally, people are trying their best to curve the infection rate of COVID 19. Although some countries have taken a stricter approach than others, we cannot deny that the virus has affected all of us.
A Vietnam man by the name of Le Van Tri recently landed himself in deep trouble when he breached the country’s home quarantine rules.
He was convicted and sentenced to five years in jail. His sin? Spreading dangerous infectious diseases to other people. This came after he travelled home from a coronavirus hot spot.

Even though he tested positive, Mr Tri continued with his travelling plans. Of the three people that got infected, one, unfortunately, died on 7 August.
