Visiting the Pagoda and receiving a free coronavirus face mask, I find it a really meaningful action. It's so hard to buy a mask out there currently, but it's given free at the Pagoda, so I am very touched. When receiving the mask, I felt joyful and less worried while going sightseeing at the Pagoda. I am very grateful to the merit of Monks and Buddhists of Ba Vang Pagoda for caring for everyone's health - shared Manh Cuong Nguyen from Cam Pha, Quang Ninh.

Quang Ninh, Vietnam - Till now, the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the coronavirus outbreak a global health emergency. This is a dangerous disease which spreads rapidly and has a high mortality rate.
