The COVID-19 pandemic caused great losses worldwide, efforts are taken place to prevent but many countries have failed. In Vietnam, the traceability, localization, and quarantine of people who contact with patients contribute to effective disease prevention. However, this is done by hand, and take a lot of work. In this research, we describe a named-entity recognition (NER) study that assists in the prevention of COVID-19 pandemic in Vietnam. We also present our manually annotated COVID-19 dataset with nested named entity recognition task for Vietnamese which be defined new entity types using for our system.
