(HBO) - The COVID-19 pandemic is developing unpredictably in Hoa Binh city when infection cases are detected in the community every day. From November 23, 2021 to 4pm on January 12, the city had recorded over 440 new cases in all 19 wards and communes, mainly in Dong Tien, Phuong Lam, Quynh Lam, Tan Thinh wards, and Mong Hoa commune. Notably, many schools have students and teachers infected with COVID-19 such as Dong Tien Secondary School, Dong Tien Primary School, Ly Tu Trong Primary School, Ethnic Minority Boarding High School, and Hoang Van Thu High School for the Gifted.

To prevent the COVID-19 pandemic, Thong Nhat High School (Hoa Binh city) requires students to wear masks during their time at school.

The city's Steering Committee for COVID-19 Prevention and Control assessed that the number of new cases in the community will continue to increase rapidly if the detection and tracing of infections are not conducted well. Therefore, both the city's political system and medical units have kept a close watch on the situation and actively implemented pandemic prevention and control measures in accordance with the set plans.

Bui Quang Diep, Chairman of Hoa Binh city People's Committee, said that amidst the complicated pandemic situation, the city's Steering Committee for COVID-19 Prevention and Control has directed to urgently zone off and trace those with close contact with patients, and timely test and apply appropriate quarantine measures. The city is a place where many people come to work and trade, so the risk of infection is very high. Therefore, the locality always promotes dissemination to encourage locals to strictly implement the "5K” message of khau trang (face masks), khu khuan (disinfection), khoang cach (distancing), khong tu tap (no gatherings), and khai bao y te (health declarations), and activates field hospitals and mobile medical stations to treat patients.

The city has promoted the task assignment and decentralisation to clearly define role and responsibilities of each person, especially the heads of agencies, units and localities in pandemic prevention and control work, brought into full play the role of self-management groups and community-based COVID-19 groups, and promptly detected people going from/to the locality. The city currently has 766 community-based COVID-19 groups in 214 residential areas and villages. In addition, the city's Steering Committee for COVID-19 Prevention and Control regularly directs the People's Committees of wards and communes to strengthen communications and encourage people to get vaccinated to ensure the coverage rate of the 2nd and 3rd doses as soon as possible.

With the joint efforts of the whole political system and people, to date, the pandemic in the city has been under control, thus contributing to stabilizing political security and social order and safety./.
