(HBO) – Despite being a disadvantaged mountainous province, Hoa Binh has successfully made use of the unity power to achieve the twin goals of keeping COVID-19 at bay and boosting socio-economic development, in response to the special emulation campaign of the entire country uniting to win over the COVID-19 pandemic launched by Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh.


 

People in Hoa Binh City deliver relief goods to the headquarters of the provincial Fatherland Front Committee for delivery to pandemic-hit Ho Chi Minh City.

Hoa Binh’s people have together responded to the provincial Fatherland Front Committee’s call for donations to aid the country’s COVID-19 fight. Many people have made financial donations while other contributed in the form of services. Local doctors and nurses have volunteered to work in Ho Chi Minh City and Dong Nai, the two coronavirus hotspots, to assist their colleagues in the fight against coronavirus, or help with pandemic prevention work in Hanoi.

Hoa Binh was one of the first localities in the country delivering over 300 tonnes of goods supplies to HCM City, which has been hit the hardest by the pandemic.

With its unity, the high commitment of the provincial political system, and the effective role of each commune and residents in the battle against the virus, the province has been able to fulfill the twin goals and protect its "green” areas.

However, the COVID-19 situation in the country remains complex with infections likely to rise again due to a large number of people returning from pandemic-hit areas and many lowering their guards against the virus. Some even spread fake and distorted information on social networks, causing bad effects on the pandemic fight.

Hoa Binh has determined that all its officials and residents must stay on high alert and work together in the COVID-19 fight. The province has urged its people to follow the "5K” principles, get COVID-19 vaccine, and heighten their sense of responsibility when using social networks.

It has also called on local residents to contribute ideas on measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and accelerate production to respond to the province’s movement campaigning people to stay united and join hands with the country to defeat the pandemic.
