Reading this trend

What moves the Safe Trip Score

Vietnam’s 7-day change is -1 points. Day-to-day moves under 3 points are noise: small advisory rewordings, individual events expiring out of the lookback window, score normalisation. Moves of 3 to 7 points reflect a real event, typically a new ministry advisory or a moderate-severity disaster / outbreak. Moves above 7 points are usually a level change on a major advisory or a high-severity acute event; check the events feed above to identify the driver. The current tone reads as low risk · exercise caution.

When a drop should change your plans

A score drop alone is not a cancellation signal; the cause is. If the drop traces to an outbreak in a region you are not visiting, the country-level score moved but your itinerary’s risk did not. If it traces to a foreign-ministry advisory upgrading the specific region you are visiting, that is the actionable signal. The Methodology page documents the weighting, and the Field Manual guides cover the cancel-push-alter decision tree per hazard category. For watchlisted countries, Safe Trip Pro pushes a notification when the score drops by your chosen threshold; the default is 5 points.
