On the night of January 10, Dr. Van Cong Minh, director of the Vinh Long Province Health Department, said that patient 1440 (named L.Th.T., 32, who lives in the village from Phu Thanh B, Nhon Phu Commune, Mang Thit District, Vinh Long Province) has 8 tests showing positive results for COVID-19.
“The last test, although the patient has absolutely no symptoms of infection, normal health, but the result is still positive for COVID-19. This is the eighth time this patient has been sampled and given a sample. Results positive after 16 days of treatment “- said Mr. Minh.
Patient 1440 is a case of illegal entry with 8 other people across the Cambodian border in An Giang province on the morning of December 24, 2020. After that, the patient moved to his home in the province Vinh Long, the reporter told authorities.
Dr. Minh added that this is also normal because a COVID-19 infected patient remains positive for more than 2 months.
“Due to the high virulence of the virus in a patient 1440, there is no specific treatment, so he is currently receiving symptomatic treatment and health improvement. When the treatment is negative, it will go into quarantine for 14 days according to regulations. “- he added.
In addition to patient 1440, Vinh Long is currently treating another case of COVID-19 infection that has returned from the UK to concentrated isolation. Currently, there are 15 close exposure (F1) cases with a 1440 patient also having second negative results.
