Politburo member Dinh Tien Dung asked the whole political system of the city to focus on epidemic prevention and control, identifying Covid-19 epidemic prevention and control as the number one priority task. The health and safety of people's lives comes first. It is necessary to determine to protect the capital from bad developments, protect the safety of central agencies, industrial parks, medical facilities, individuals, agencies, families, alleys, residential areas, villages and residential groups in the area.
He emphasised that Party secretaries and chairpersons of People's Committees at all levels must effectively, comprehensively and synchronously direct measures to prevent and control the Covid-19 epidemic, focusing on three key tasks.

Accordingly, instead of the scenario of arranging 5,000 beds for the current treatment of F0, it is necessary to prepare a plan to arrange 10,000 beds, 20,000 beds, and, if needed, even increasing further.
Accompanying each scenario must ensure adequate preparation of facilities and people; have plans to reserve or mobilise correspondingly, so as not to be short of hospital beds, ventilators, medicines, doctors, and nurses.
