(HBO) - Due to the complicated developments of Covid-19 epidemics, the cultural and sport activities must also be cancelled to limit the sources of disease infection. Accordingly, many provincial sports tournaments have been postponed, the sports movement in localities in the province has also become quiet.

Young people are practicing skateboarding at Hoa Binh Square, Su Ngoi Commune (Hoa Binh City).

The province has not recorded any positive cases for Covid-19, but following the direction of the Government, people have limited their gathering in crowded places, and the sports activities from movement to professional are more or less affected.

For high-performing sports, students from the sports gifted classes of the Sports Gifted, training and competition school have taken leave from the beginning of COVID-19 epidemics. The amateur athletes of the school are still training on the spirit of health and safety for athletes and coaches (the coach must be on the top). The prevention and control of the epidemics have been performed in parallel during the daily practice.

According to the plan, the Month of sport activities for everyone and the Olympic running day for the health of the whole people in Hoa Binh province in 2020 will mobilize the maximum number of people, soldiers of the armed forces, pupils, students, officials and employees to join and organize simultaneously in March. But to ensure the safety of Covid-19, the organization time depends on the evolution of the disease around the country.

like the provincial sports and physical activities, the traditional sports tournaments of some localities are also affected by the epidemics, so they have to cancel or postpone until the completion of the epidemics. The sports competition of "Celebrating the Party and spring” such as crossbow shooting, tug of war, stick pushing, cotton ball throwing, volleyball, soccer ... are considered the traditional sports activities of Thinh Lang Ward (Hoa Binh City). But this year, the party committee and the authorities of the ward

did not hold a tournament to ensure the health of the people during Covid-19 epidemics.

The movement of mass sports is popular among the local people. At a number of outdoor physical training places in Hoa Binh City, people still keep practicing but face masks now have become an indie thing for each person. Ms. Nguyen Thi Gam (Huu Nghi ward) says: "While exercising and wearing a mask, it is a little uncomfortable, but the worry about the disease helps everyone to raise awareness of self-control and prevention of the epidemics for ourselves and other people. Wearing face masks is a necessary job to protect your health during the epidemic season, so no matter how uncomfortable it is, everyone has gradually adapted to this good habit.”

In addition, the developments of Covid-19 epidemics are complicated as it is today, with the anxiety, fear of infection when practicing physical training in crowded places, some people choose to practice in places with open space, suitable for practicing sports such as cycling, jogging, badminton, walking to ensure a distance from each other at least 2 meters. In addition, some people choose to do gentle exercises at home or practice online yoga...

Regular sports and physical training during the season of Covid-19 is not only a necessary activity to improve health, but it also contributes to improving the quality of spiritual life, enhancing resistance to reduce virus penetration into the body. But it is also necessary to ensure serious implementation of measures to prevent and control Covid-19.
