Frontline medical personnel from Ha Noi hospitals leaving for HCM City to help the country’s epicentre fight the COVID-19 pandemic will carry 100,000 glasses of milk donated by FrieslandCampina Viet Nam’s Dutch Lady brand.

Earlier this month the brand donated more than 700,000 glasses of milk to medical personnel and people living in locked-down areas in COVID-19 hotspots HCM City and Binh Duong Province, she said.

Since the pandemic began early last year the brand had donated tens of millions of glasses of milk worth a total of VND25 billion, she added.
