Most of the answers above are from well-meaning people who are guessing rather than knowing.
I have been living in Vietnam for the last 17 years and I HAVE gotten Malaria once. It is NOT a lot of fun, so you are correct to be worried.
Having said that, I contracted it while on a trip deep into the provinces, did not use repellent or a net. I gambled and lost.
If you are in Hanoi or HCMC, you are pretty safe from catching malaria. Actually, the disease you should be worrying about is Japanese encephalitis...which you can get inoculated against.
Contact Hanoi Family Clinic for more accurate information. Thats your best bet.
