Vietnam's ongoing outbreak continues to grow with 61 new domestic Covid-19 patients confirmed Monday morning, sending its fourth wave's tally to 4,096.

The new cases were registered in three northern localities of Bac Giang, Hanoi and Lang Son.

Epicenter Bac Giang Province reported 43 cases and all are related to clusters at its industrial parks.

Hanoi recorded 15 cases who have come into contact with Covid-19 patients.

Of the remaining three cases that are detected in Lang Son Province, one is linked to the hotspot at Quang Chau Industrial Park in Bac Giang, one is a person that had contact with a previously confirmed Covid-19 patient and one is related to a cluster in Lang Son's Huu Lung District.
