Recently, some photos that are said to be male artist Quang Teo and actress Thanh Bi appeared at the opening ceremony of a beauty salon in Lam Dong, right at the peak of the epidemic, caused controversy among the public. Through some images, it can be seen that the two artists did not comply with epidemic prevention regulations, gathered in large crowds and did not wear masks in public. The actions of Quang Teo and Thanh Bi are almost in contrast to the call for people to join hands to prevent the epidemic, fully implementing the 5K rule of the Ministry of Health.
Artist Quang Teo admitted to attending the opening event in Lam Dong. However, the male artist affirmed that the event only had about 10 participants. All guests were arranged to sit alone, keeping the maximum distance from others. As for the painting without a mask, artist Quang Teo said that this was a secret painting, not reflecting the truth at that time.
In addition, he also said the reason for agreeing to attend the above event is because Lam Dong has not recorded any COVID-19 cases, all entertainment activities are still taking place normally such as restaurants, karaoke bars or cafes... Currently, after COVID-19 testing, artist Quang Teo is staying in Lam Dong waiting for the results as requested by the authorities.
As for actress Thanh Bi's representative, they only said that this was a misunderstanding and did not give any further response.
However, this explanation of Quang Teo and Thanh Bi did not receive the approval of the majority. Many opinions say where the awareness and responsibility of these artists are. They did not know that sometimes their "inequality" could prolong the time and hardship of departments, branches and doctors in disease prevention. There are some proposals to have a strict penalty for this case, because "artists should use their voices, attitudes and actions to spread positive spirit to the people, contributing to making life more beautiful, especially during the difficult period when the whole country is fighting the epidemic", as a reader commented.
Previously, there was information that the event also had the participation of Miss Ngoc Han and Runner-up Ngoc Thao. However, both refused to attend due to concerns about the complicated COVID-19 epidemic situation. On their personal pages, both beauties confirmed that they did not go to Lam Dong to attend the event.
"Because the COVID-19 epidemic situation is very complicated, I decided not to attend the event at Bao Loc. I hope the whole country will join hands to unite and implement the Government's regulations well so that Vietnam can soon overcome the epidemic, and we can soon return to normal life and work," Miss Ngoc Han wrote.
