VTV.vn - Hồ Chí Minh City's Children's Hospital has had to open an additional area for dengue fever patients due to the outbreak.

These patients who are in critical conditions due to dengue fever were transferred from nearby districts. This move is to prevent overcrowding at Children's Hospital 1 and Children's Hospital 2. Hồ Chí Minh City has had more than 10,500 cases since the beginning of the year. Four patients have already died because of the illness.
