Officials on Friday said several days of flooding--the region's worst in 100 years--left huge numbers of people hungry in seven provinces that stretch 350 miles.
Deputy Premier Pham Gia Khiem, speaking on Vietnam television from the former imperial capital, Hue, said 900,000 people in the province of Thua Thien-Hue alone were living in the open and had eaten no rice in three days.
The province has borne the brunt of the floods, with 230 people dead.
Officials said diarrhea and fever had broken out in two other provinces, and rescue workers were struggling to distribute food and medicine in continuous rains.
