(HBO) – The steering committee for COVID-19 prevention and control of Hoa Binh province held a teleconference on March 26 to discuss anti-coronavirus measures in the new context.
Bui
Van Khanh, Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the
provincial People’s Committee and head of the Hoa Binh steering committee for
the work, speaks at the meeting.
At the event, representatives of the provincial
Health Department and the steering committee reported on the COVID-19 situation
in Vietnam
and Hoa Binh province. As of 1pm of March 26, the province hadn’t recorded any
positive cases. However, some suspected cases have been quarantined and had
samples taken for testing.
Recently, the steering committee has organised
two inspection rounds to check the anti-COVID-19 work in 10 district-level
localities across Hoa Binh. The province has arranged concentrated quarantine
sites and received people subject to quarantine in line with regulations. It
has sent 106 people who finished quarantine at the province’s military school
back to their localities, and received another 80 for quarantine.
Plans for the level-2 and -3 disease prevention
and control have been built and carried out. Besides, authorities have provided
guidance on making health declaration; activated the epidemic monitoring
system; ensured the supply of medical equipment, medicines and materials for
anti-coronavirus units; and stepped up communication activities in various
forms to raise public awareness of the disease and preventive measures.
Addressing the meeting, Bui Van Khanh, Vice
Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the provincial
People’s Committee and head of the steering committee, said the COVID-19
prevention and control in Hoa Binh has already been at the third level.
He requested the whole political system and
members of the steering committee to focus on directing the work from the
provincial to grassroots levels. Relevant agencies need to keep a close watch
on those returning from virus-hit countries and regions, list those subject to
quarantine and take samples for testing.
They were also asked to push ahead with patient
examination, quarantine and treatment, as well as cross-infection control.
Meanwhile, multimedia communications should be boosted so that people have
precise knowledge of the disease, take preventive measures, and avoid anxiety
about or negligence on the epidemic.
The official also demanded unnecessary cultural
and sport services be suspended, adding that Hoa Binh must always stay ready in
the COVID-19 fight.
At the teleconference, the chairman of the
provincial People’s Committee also called on local agencies, businesses,
organisations and individuals to make financial contributions to
anti-coronavirus efforts./.

After the historic victory on April 30, 1975, which liberated the South and reunified the country, the whole Vietnam embarked on a new mission — promoting peace and reconstructing the nation with century-defining projects. On the fierce Da River, over 30,000 engineers, sappers, and construction workers battled against rocky mountains and raging floods to achieve a remarkable feat. The Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia at that time, officially began generating electricity, lighting up the North and ushering in a new era of industrialisation.
