Definitely a bad idea in my opinion this virus has a first second and third waves as long as we don't have vaccine for this, yes they have survived the first wave but what they have done could be the start of he second wave, just like what happen to Singapore and Japan where they were hit by a second wave badly because they become relax on the situation.
You'd be surprised if you knew Vietnam was the first country in the world to put SARS 2003 under control, with the help and sacrifice of Dr. Carlo Urbani (source: https://www.who.int/mediacentre/news/releases/2003/pr_sars/en/). The government has seriously taken into consideration before making the decision to allow audiences' attendances. "The second wave" is different from country to country. In fact, the second wave already striked Vietnam in early of March after it had had about 18 consecutive days of non-new infected. Regarding Singapore and Japan, I can't say Vietnam treated Covid-19 the same way with them.Put behind Covid-19, Vietnam held a 10,000 audience-football match.
They simply tackled covid-19 well. They were first to close borders. They are bordering China. I believe they had no dead from covid-19. There was one English pilot in their hospital with 10% lungs left working and they said unless they will find a donor he will die.
I mean while this is great and all, I don't want other nations -- who aren't ready to do things like this -- to think that they should. People can scream whatever they want, but COVID is still a threat to many people and many nations.
Very important to note that there WERE temperature checks before coming into the stadium, guests asked to wear face masks, sanitized, etc. In the US we're most likely going to have sports without anyone attending at first, and then slowly ease into something like this. But I'm not sure we're ready to do stuff like this yet, going to take a bit to regain the confidence of people.
Vietnam has reasons to do so but other countries may not. The fact is that Vietnam has 0 infected in the community and hence the risk is virtually zero. Masks and hand sanitization were just entry procedures. People put their masks off when they got in. I totally agree that when there're still community infection, such activities with crowds should be strictly restricted.
