Following orders given by Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc, Vietnam’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development must draft a plan to ban the trade and consumption of wild animals across the country by April 1.

按照越南总理阮春福（Nguyen Xuan Phuc）发出的命令，越南农业与农村发展部（MARD）必须在4月1日前起草计划，规定在全国范围内禁止野生动物的贸易和消费。

The move comes after 14 non-profit organizations—including Pan Nature, the World Wildlife Fund (WFF), Animals Asia Foundation, and Save Vietnam Wildlife—demanded that the country ban the wildlife trade to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and future outbreaks.

此前，包括人类与自然和谐中心（Pan Nature）、世界野生生物基金会（WFF）、亚洲动物基金会（AAF）和拯救越南野生动物组织（SVW）在内的14家非营利组织正式要求越南禁止野生动物贸易，以遏制新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）的传播和未来（疾病）爆发。

“The lesson from SARS and now COVID-19 are clear: new viruses will continue to move from wildlife to people while illegal wildlife trade and wildlife consumption continue,” the organizations collectively said in a letter sent to the Prime Minister last month.

上个月，这些组织在发给越南总理的一封信中共同表示：“过去的SARS以及现在的COVID-19病毒给予我们的教训很明显：只要非法的野生动物贸易和野生动物消费一日不止，新的病毒仍将继续从野生动物传染给人类。”

COVID-19 is believed to have originated from a live animal market in Wuhan, China, most likely through human contact with bats. Last month, China announced it would permanently ban the wild animal trade in its own efforts to curb the spread of disease.

新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）被认为是来源于中国武汉市的一个活体动物市场，很可能是通过人接触蝙蝠而传播的。为了抑制疾病的蔓延，中国已在上个月宣布将永久禁止野生动物交易。
