Le Thanh Ton Street, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City is deserted because of the implementation of social distancing. (Photo: Thanh Vu/VNA) Currently, Ho Chi Minh City has many outbreaks of unknown origin in the community and from there spreading to many people, so it is necessary to accelerate the screening and wide-ranging work to end the infection chains. This is the direction of Mr. Nguyen Thanh Phong, Chairman of the People’s Committee of Ho Chi Minh City at the meeting of the city’s Steering Committee for Epidemic Prevention and Control on the afternoon of June 15. Reporting at the meeting, Mr. Nguyen Tan Binh, Director of Ho Chi Minh City’s Department of Health, said that on June 15, the city recorded 90 cases of COVID-19. Up to now, Ho Chi Minh City has 1,252 cases of COVID-19 in the community with many outbreaks with wide spread such as the outbreak of the Phuc Hung mission group with 476 positive cases for SARS-CoV-2; Outbreak Hoc Mon Mechanical Workshop has 51 positive cases; Ehome 3 apartment outbreak has a total of 59 positive cases; Outbreak Road 11 (Hiep Binh Phuoc ward, Thu Duc city) has 8 positive cases; Outbreaks in Tan Thoi 2 and Tan Thoi Hiep 3 hamlets (Tan Hiep commune, Hoc Mon district) have 32 positive cases; Kim Minh company outbreak (Ward 13, District 5) has 27 positive cases; Outbreak Tan Phu District Hospital has 14 positive cases; Outbreak of Xuyen A Hospital has 22 positive cases… The director of the Department of Health is concerned about the outbreak at the Hospital for Tropical Diseases because the number of cases has reached 67, of which 60 are medical staff and 7 cases are family members of these staff. . Besides, more and more cases appear in companies and industrial zones in recent days. Concerned about the situation of many new infection chains appearing in the community, Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee Nguyen Thanh Phong acknowledged that new outbreaks appear according to a common formula of hospital screening. detecting cases, then screening and tracing at living quarters and workplaces again discovered new cases. “There are more and more new cases with unknown sources of infection, so for infection chains with unknown sources of infection, it is necessary to focus on screening, testing and testing on a large scale because if not blocked, the epidemic will spread. to the community,” Mr. Nguyen Thanh Phong expressed concern. Chairman of the People’s Committee Nguyen Thanh Phong directed, in the immediate future, the health sector must carefully screen risk groups in hospitals; Sampling implementation extensive testing to industrial area , export processing zones from now until June 25; at the same time, monitor high-risk places including domestic and international flights, trains and ships entering Ho Chi Minh City. Mr. Nguyen Thanh Phong also suggested that departments, branches, districts of the city must be ready to prepare plans for epidemic prevention and control in a spirit of speed and determination because of the fact that there are still many cases of negligence in the public sector. epidemic prevention and control. According to the Chairman of the People’s Committee of Ho Chi Minh City, this is the time when the entire political system must try and devote all its efforts to the goal of epidemic prevention and control, ensuring the safety and health of the people.

The first dose of COVID-19 vaccine for the group, the first phase of priority subjects in Hai Phong. Photo: An Dang/VNA Too many clues but still confused At working sessions, representatives of grassroots trade unions all said that during the COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control period, relevant units and departments required establishments to provide too much duplicate information. Ms. Tran Thi Thuy, Chairman of the Trade Union of Greating Fortune Conainer Joint Stock Company (Dinh Vu Industrial Park), said that at times of complicated developments in the COVID-19 epidemic, every day she received a request to report from many different governing bodies on the same content. In some cases, the unit sent a report by email, but the state management agency did not respond to the receipt, and then requested to send an official letter with a fresh stamp recognizing it as a valid document. According to Ms. Thuy, in addition to trade union work, cadres like Ms. Thuy also have to undertake professional work at the enterprise. Therefore, the overlap in direction has created great pressure for those who are concurrently. In addition to the problem related to the report, the representatives of businesses also suggested to the departments and branches of Hai Phong city that the city’s functional agencies need to have a reasonable plan in the large-scale testing and screening. with workers. Ms. Dao Thi Thu Trang, Chairman of the Trade Union of Nam Dinh Vu Industrial Park, said that many businesses in the industrial park think that testing and screening 50% of the employees in the business is only a temporary solution. , because it is likely that among those who have not been tested there are also risk factors. Moreover, when workers have tested negative, they themselves will be subjective in epidemic prevention and control. Regarding the development of scenarios to respond to the COVID-19 epidemic, a representative of Dai Duong Electronics Company Limited (An Duong Industrial Park), said that during the screening test, the company had 5 suspect sample. As soon as they heard the information, the company’s partners from food and drink suppliers to other delivery units refused to deliver and receive goods for epidemic prevention and control. Meanwhile, thousands of employees have to stay at the company to wait for test results. Although there was a scenario of epidemic prevention and control before, the company was very confused to respond, not knowing which unit to call first to seek support. Need consistency in planning kế According to representatives of businesses, in order to remove obstacles about information focal points, state management agencies related to companies in economic zones and industrial parks need to have a connection in accessing documents and numbers. information content. Ms. Le Thi Thu Giang, Chairman of the Trade Union of Cheveron Lubricants Vietnam Co., Ltd., said that during the epidemic, all needed urgency, accuracy and efficiency. Therefore, the receipt of information reported through online channels of state management agencies must be recognized as official information. Agencies such as tax, economic zone management board, and trade union need to build a common software to receive and process documents to save time for both the receiving unit and the information processing unit. . To ensure the health and safety of workers, all businesses have suggested that the Hai Phong city government and the Government should prioritize the source of vaccines for workers at businesses. This will ensure 2 benefits, both saving costs for businesses and ensuring effective epidemic prevention and control. A representative of an enterprise said that each combined test sample costs more than 350,000 VND, if each enterprise has to test 50% of its employees, businesses with a large number of workers have to spend billions of dong to test. screening while this job is only temporary, while some businesses are in a very difficult period due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic. On the other hand, foreign-invested companies will have to report to the parent company a lot of content related to financial issues. Therefore, the directions on testing or vaccination need to agree on the number and time for businesses to have grounds to report. Receiving opinions from representatives of grassroots union presidents, Chairman of the Hai Phong Confederation of Labor Tong Van Bang said that the city’s Confederation of Labor would make specific reports to the city’s leaders, and at the same time requested relevant units to promptly handle problems to remove difficulties for businesses while still ensuring the requirements of disease prevention and control.

Immediately after, the Center for Disease Control of Dong Thap province conducted a confirmation PCR test sample for this case and the result was negative for SARS-CoV-2. Dong Thap province has two confirmed PCR testing facilities. Explaining this result, the Dong Thap health sector said that usually, rapid tests have high sensitivity to easily screen all suspected cases so as not to miss subjects when investigating and tracing. But with the rapid test, it is not possible to confirm that the subject has Covid-19 but after performing the rapid test, a PCR test must be performed to confirm the screened result. New PCR test confirms whether the subject has Covid-19 or not. Related to the above case, today, there has been a lot of information on social networks that reflects incorrectly, causing confusion and insecurity in public opinion. Phuong Chau Sa Dec International Hospital is operating normally, well streamlining all stages, well implementing regulations on epidemic prevention and control for medical examination and inpatient departments. Dong Thap province’s functional sector recommends that people should select official information from competent professional agencies to speak, avoid spreading and sharing false information that causes confusion among the public.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Loc, Head of Population Division, Sub-Department of Population and Family Planning, said: Pre-marital health check-up has many benefits, limiting the incidence of birth defects. Congenital defects inherited from parents, typically hemolytic anemia. Besides, the pre-marital health check will help to promptly treat sexually transmitted diseases; help doctors to assess fertility and support the treatment of reproductive-related diseases in a timely manner. However, indifference to pre-marital health check-ups is a limitation of the majority of young people today. In fact, many people have long been afraid of getting a medical check-up before marriage, because they are afraid that if they find out the disease will affect the happiness of the couple, some people even think that they only have to suspect each other. . All these thoughts have invisibly created barriers, making the meaning of pre-marital health check-ups a fear and obsession for many young people.

In order to promote the model effectively, the Provincial Sub-Department of Population and Family Planning has directed the district health centers to guide the health stations to coordinate with mass organizations, especially the Women’s Union and the Youth Union, to establish The club serves as a place to propagate the meaning and importance of pre-marital counseling and medical examination. Not only promoting propaganda, the model also organizes free medical check-ups for couples who are about to get married, especially, giving priority to those from poor and disadvantaged households. Thereby, couples will be given a general health check, tested for hepatitis B, and consulted if they need a more in-depth examination on reproductive health (SS). As a result, the models have really become a bridge, helping young people to exchange, exchange and consult on issues related to reproductive health/family planning, heterosexual friendship, love, and sex. safety, prevention of unwanted pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, HIV/AIDS and issues to know before marriage. Ms. Nguyen Thi Mai, Binh Luong commune (Thu Xuan) shared, through pre-marital health club activities, seminars and knowledge counseling on gender, reproductive health, marriage and family… , I have accumulated more knowledge about reproductive health care and the need for pre-marital health checks. Therefore, when she was about to get married, she actively asked her boyfriend to go to a medical facility for a health check. Talking to Mr. Nguyen Van Thang, Director of the Provincial Sub-Department of Population and Family Planning, it is known: This is a practical model, helping many young people have the opportunity to access knowledge about pre-marital health care. At the same time, the model has also contributed to raising awareness of the Party committees and authorities at all levels about the work of population and family planning, and reproductive health/family planning care for adolescents and young adults. The model has held hundreds of seminars, attracting thousands of participants; organize propaganda conferences on reproductive health and premarital health for district and commune population steering committees and officials in charge of population and family planning in the districts in which the model is deployed and coordinated health centers. with the Committees of Population and Family Planning of the communes and townships to organize health check-ups and counseling on the risk of giving birth to children with disabilities or deformities for couples preparing for marriage; hepatitis B testing and ultrasound for couples preparing to get married; establish pre-marital health clubs and maintain activities once a quarter to exchange knowledge about healthy male and female love, safe sex, prevention of sexually transmitted diseases, suitable contraceptive methods, safe abortion… Through the activities that helped young people become more aware of the benefits of pre-marital health care, many of them actively sought out Go to a medical facility to check your health before getting married.

Longevity of the Forbidden City From 1406, a magnificent ancient palace began to be built in China, that is, the Forbidden City. It was built for a total of 14 years until it was completed in 1420. Although it was built only 14 years ago, its preliminary preparation work was very thorough. After all, it’s been more than 600 years since the Forbidden City was built, hundreds of years of ups and downs are enough to destroy most things in this world, but why has the Forbidden City not collapsed in the last 600 years? The Forbidden City went through the Ming and Qing dynasties. Because it is an ancient building with a wooden structure, there is no way to avoid the risk of fire, and it has been continuously restored throughout the centuries. Even in modern times, after the founding of the People’s Republic of China, in order to better protect the Forbidden City, the Chinese government carried out a comprehensive renovation of the Forbidden City. While sorting through the cultural relics inside, a secret was discovered after pry open the floor tiles of the Forbidden City. Floor tiles in the Forbidden City Many people wonder if the Forbidden City has existed for the past 600 years because of its foundation? For projects, although the role of the foundation cannot be ignored, other parts are equally important. In addition to the massiveness of the Forbidden City, one can certainly come across the floor tiles that can be seen everywhere in the Forbidden City. As an ordinary citizen, surely everyone will have satisfactory floor tiles for their home, not to mention the magnificent Forbidden City, the residence of the emperor. Talking about the Forbidden City, there is always a saying handed down in folklore. Also because of this saying, when the Forbidden City was being extensively restored, every corner of it was thoroughly studied. The saying goes, “The palaces, the ancient royal palaces, the wards in the Forbidden City, are all paved with golden square bricks”. So the floor tiles used in the Forbidden City are gilded tiles? Of course not, of course gold here does not refer to that metal bearing the symbol Au. The reason they are called yellow bricks is because the ancient craftsmen put a little tung oil (tung tree oil, or elm dong – Vietnamese call it sloppy) into the mold when making these bricks. As the emperor’s palace, even the floor tiles, of course, must be made of the best materials. This type of brick is not available to everyone. The secret under the golden bricks in the Forbidden City The floor tiles of the Forbidden City are not only made of good materials, but are also harder than ordinary bricks, and are also more labor-intensive to make than ordinary bricks. Except for the emperor, the people who used these bricks in ancient times were all powerful officials and nobles. And the secret that keeps the Forbidden City from falling for hundreds of years is also hidden under these golden bricks. In the Forbidden City, the error between each yellow brick is very small, it takes 3 years to make 50,000 gold bricks, moreover it can only be produced in Suzhou. However, successful crafting does not mean it will be used, as these golden bricks will be tested one by one after they are delivered to the Forbidden City. The selection criteria were even comparable to those of the emperor’s concubines, which required rigorous screening. According to records in the mandarin books of the “Works of the Law” of the Qing dynasty, a gold brick two meters long, each worker can only be sharpened 3. When laying the floor, three workers, including a main tiler and two assistants, can only lay 5 tiles a day. For example, when laying the floor tiles in Thai Hoa Palace, they needed 1573 masons, 944 pavers and 1888 assistant workers. From the above information, it can be understood that placing golden bricks in the Forbidden City is very laborious and time consuming. Originally, this project was labor-intensive, paving a floor was not easy, while the foundation of the Forbidden City was paved for fifteen floors. At that time, Minh Thanh To guarded against theft, worried that someone would dig a tunnel into the Forbidden City, so he asked for 15 floors of bricks. The total amount is equivalent to the current 80 million yuan. Behind the successful installation of these bricks is the hard work of countless workers. After paving the floor in the Forbidden City, in order not to reveal this secret, all the workers were ordered to become mute. Therefore, after finding out this secret, they all sighed and said that Chu Di (Ming’s ancestor Zhu Di – the 3rd emperor of the Ming Dynasty) was indeed an outstanding tyrant in history. .

This is also the first private medical facility licensed by the Department of Health of Da Nang City to coordinate with CDC Da Nang to test for SARS-CoV-2 in August 2020.
