VTV.vn - Ho Chi Minh City’s Department of Health has reactivated the campaign to protect people in high-risk groups against the COVID-19 pandemic, including those aged over 50, those with underlying diseases, and pregnant women.

Since the beginning of April, the number of new COVID-19 cases in Ho Chi Minh City has surged, especially since April 14, resulting in a rise in the number of hospitalised patients.

The municipal Department of Health will request the People's Committees of wards and communes to review and make a list of people belonging to the groups in their localities to ensure all are fully vaccinated with four doses.

The Hospital for Tropical Diseases and assigned hospitals were asked to prepare personnel, medical equipment, and supplies for COVID-19 treatment within 24 hours of the reactivation./.
