The HCM City Department of Education and Training has proposed to provide financial support to both public and private schools to lower tuition fees. illustrative image Private primary schools and public primary schools which have been granted financial autonomy will get the support. This move aims to create education equity between all kinds of educational facilities and students since primary education is mandatory.

Ho Chi Minh City to resume many services from March 1

The facilities are requested to ensure that people maintain a minimum distance of one metre from each other, and catering establishments are ordered to serve no more than 30 people at the same time. The decision was announced on February 25 after the city went 14 days without a single community transmission case of COVID-19. The reopening of several services aims to achieve the dual goal of facilitating effective pandemic prevention while maintaining socio-economic development in the city. However, under the decision, non-essential services including bars, dance clubs, pubs, beer clubs, karaoke parlours, gyms and pool table services will remain closed until further notice.

HCM City’s Dept of Health develops emergency plan for COVID-19

The plan is being made because of pandemic developments including new variants and outbreaks globally. The department will continue to use available personnel and facilities at designated hospitals for treatment of COVID-19 patients. These hospitals include Cu Chi COVID-19 Treatment Hospital with 300 beds, Can Gio COVID-19 Treatment Hospital with 600 beds, HCM City Hospital for Tropical Diseases with 40 beds at its Department for Transmissible Diseases D, and the City Children’s Hospital and Children’s Hospital 2. These hospitals will be ready to increase the number of beds to admit COVID-19 patients and others suspected of having COVID-19 if an outbreak occurs. If the hospitals become overloaded, the department will use Pham Ngoc Thach Hospital’s 464 beds to admit COVID-19 patients. The department has instructed hospitals in the city to prepare doctors and nurses to be available for examination and treatment of COVID-19 patients if necessary. These doctors and nurses will have to receive training in professional knowledge on treatment and control of infections, and ensure safety for medical staff as well as patients. Last year, the Cu Chi COVID-19 Treatment Hospital and Can Gio COVID-19 Treatment Hospital were the two main health facilities isolating and treating COVID-19 patients and suspected cases. This was done to help reduce pressure and risk of transmission at city hospitals. The hospitals’ doctors and nurses came from other hospitals in the city and worked on a rotation system. The department has also instructed the 115 Emergency Centre to continue carrying out its task of transporting COVID-19 patients to designated hospitals for treatment. Hospitals have helped the city Centre for Diseases Control and Prevention (CDC) to take samples for testing at Tan Son Nhat airport, and bus and railway stations. Besides the Pasteur Institute and the CDC, tests are conducted by the HCM City Hospital for Tropical Diseases, Children’s Hospital 1, …
