The Department of Health has just developed a plan to ensure medical work in
the event of COVID-19 epidemic has a dangerous new mutation, causing a large
outbreak, exceeding the capacity of the health system in Binh Thuan province.
According to this
plan, an emergency epidemic situation is when a dangerous new variant appears
that can spread faster with possibility of reducing the effectiveness of
vaccines or immunity, increasing the number of infections, severe cases or
deaths, the epidemic is at risk of breaking out on a large scale, exceeding the
capacity of the health system. The plan also clearly states a number of
criteria related to this situation.
The development of
this plan aims to improve the response capacity and readiness to respond
appropriately and effectively in situations where COVID-19 epidemic has a new
and more dangerous mutation, breaking out in a large-scale that exceeds the
capacity of the medical system. Thereby, ensuring effective epidemic control,
controlling the rate of spread in the community, maximally protecting people's
health and lives, and minimizing cases of serious illness and death due to
COVID-19, avoiding overloading the health system, contributing to
socio-economic recovery and development.
The plan also sets
out the main groups of tasks and solutions related to executive direction,
medical professional work, communication work, training, IT application,
logistics and coordination work./.
