Currently the epidemic caused by Coronavirus (COVID-19) has adversely affected many countries, facilitating the vaccination program worldwide. However, whether or not to vaccinate is still controversial, including Vietnam. We recognize that the different attitudes of people after reading the information regarding the COVID vaccine may partly influence the decision to use the vaccine in the future. This study aims to investigate the attitudes of Vietnamese people on the Internet by 2020. We searched for articles on mainstream media online newspapers in Vietnam. Then proceed to collect and classify comments from electronic articles based on the set criteria. Articles containing information regarding the COVID-19 vaccine from early January to early December 2020 in Vietnam. There were 273 articles including 8711 comments related to COVID-19 vaccines compiled. The percentage of supportive comments related to vaccines was 14,3%, which was 6 times higher than the proportion of negative comments (2,4%). The topic with the most supportive comments is the results of the vaccine (20.3%). In the topic of articles, the highest proportion of agreeable comments was in the results of vaccines (20.3%) and the second-highest was in the process of vaccines (17.1%). The percentage of unagreeable comments in the origin of vaccines was higher than that in the process of vaccines with 2.8% and 2.6% each. The proportion of unagreeable comments in the results of vaccines was the lowest at 1.3%. Our research has shown evidence of the attitudes of Vietnamese about the COVID 19 vaccine through electronic articles

To validate the Vietnamese version Internet Gaming Disorder-20 (VN-IGD-20) Test for teenagers, a survey among 349 gamers, who were accepted in the interview, from secondary and high schools from 28 game stores was conducted in Hanoi, Vietnam. The IGD-20 Test comprised 20 items with six different dimensions, using a 5-point Likert scale. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used to examine the validation; Cronbach’s Alpha was performed to test the reliability; and Latent class analysis (LCA) was applied to identify the level of internet gaming disorder (IGD). Moreover, the ROC curve diagram was used with the highest Youden’s Index parameter to determine the best cut-off point. CFA proved that the VN-IGD-Test with 17 items, which was divided into five-factor dimensions. The model indexes of the Vietnamese questionnaire included RMSEA = 0.053; SRMR = 0.052; GFI = 0.929; TLI = 0.908 and CFI = 0.927. The values for Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of each dimension ranged from 0.823 to 0.840. The LCA found out four levels of IGD: casual gamers, regular gamers, low-risk engaged gamers, and high-risk engaged gamers. Additionally, the optimal empirical cut-off point with the highest Youden’s Index was 47.5 (out of 85). The present study findings illustrated that the VN-IGD-17 Test could be used as a valid and reliable tool for assessing internet gaming disorder in Vietnamese teenagers.
