Recently, new COVID-19 outbreaks have been detected in several localities
bordering Hoa Binh province, especially 128 cases recorded in Phu Tho in recent
days. Hoa Binh has to date recorded 47 infections and is treating three patients,
and quarantining four people. The province has so far received 13,359 people
returning from very high-risk and high-risk areas, including 542 from Ho Chi
Minh City and southern provinces.
The province has received over 427,000 doses of vaccines against COVID-19. To
date, 432,470 shots have been administered, of them 349,844 people have
received one jab, and 55,827 have been inoculated fully. The COVID-19 pandemic
has continued developing complicatedly and unpredictably. Production and
business activities and circulation of goods have been affected significantly.
However, some people do not strictly follow pandemic prevention and control
regulations and, and human resources directly involved in pandemic prevention
and control in some places are not sufficient, and resources to support the
fight are limited.
At the conference, participants discussed and contributed ideas to the pandemic
prevention and control in the coming time.
Concluding the event, Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and
Chairman of the provincial People's Committee Bui Van Khanh stressed that
although Hoa Binh is considered a safe (green) zone, the risk of pandemic
outbreaks remains huge, given complicated developments of the pandemic in other
localities.
Khanh suggested departments, agencies, districts, and Hoa Binh city base on
their functions and tasks to develop plans in accordance with the Government’s
Resolution No. 128/NQ-CP, dated October 11, 2021, promulgating provisional
regulations on safely and flexibly adapting to and effectively controlling the
pandemic.
The health sector was asked to coordinate with relevant departments and
branches, and the People's Committees of districts and Hoa Binh city to
organise mass testing in high-risk areas.
He also requested leaders of districts and Hoa Binh city to strengthen and
regularly direct the control of people through health declaration checkpoints,
and community COVID-19 teams; accelerate vaccinations against COVID-19 by
mobilising the participation of police and military units; and quickly provide
support for affected locals under the Government’s Resolution No. 68/NQ-CP./.
