As a traveler to a new paradise, while it is important to have such information, one should be always conscious of the latest alerts issued by the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Vietnamese Ministry of Health. It may be of further necessity to check against travel advisories as issued by these organizations with one's own government, allowing them to be advised if its citizens are safe to travel there. Individual health risks should always be weighed along with one's vaccination status, potential quarantine or testing prior to departure or upon return, and other relevant provisions.
