This new policy will only apply to F0s who have had 2 doses of the vaccine and test negative for COVID-19 on their 7th day.
The Ministry of Health has agreed with this proposal of the Department of Health of Ho Chi Minh City.
Since applying the guidelines for diagnosis and treatment issued by the Ministry of Health, especially in using the drug Molnupiravir, many F0 cases have only been exhibiting mild symptoms, with symptoms disappearing after only 1 week of isolation.
Prolonged isolation for F0s with mild symptoms puts pressure on the health sector and in the long term could cause problems./.
