Vaccines would be given at schools for those attending schools and at medical stations for those who don't. Those who have congenital or chronic conditions would be vaccinated in hospitals.

The capital plans to vaccinate all children aged 12-17 eligible for vaccination until the first quarter of 2022, amounting to around 792,000 children. It is now the 23rd locality to begin children vaccination against Covid-19.

Vietnam has vaccinated around 1.8 million children aged 12-17, or 20 percent of children in the age group, with at least one Covid-19 vaccine shot. Around 4,300 children have received two shots.

Motivation for the development of children's literature
The fourth National Book Awards in 2021 has honoured many children's literary works, with one A, four B, and two C prizes presented in the category out of the total of 24 winning entries. This shows that children's literature has been receiving greater attention from authors, readers and publishing houses, which offer prospects for the further development of the genre.
