Regarding the screening of patients in medical facilities, Associate Professor Dr. Luong Ngoc Khue, Director of the Department of Medical Examination and Treatment, Ministry of Health, said that through the analysis of 240 new COVID-19 patients This indicates that up to 80% of patients have no symptoms. This is a great challenge for hospitals in the patient selection process.

Of the patients in this new outbreak, only 1 patient was critically ill, 3 patients had to breathe oxygen, 20 patients had a medical history.

Therefore, director Luong Ngoc Khue suggested that all hospitals return to carefully exploit the epidemiological history of all the people who attended the examination.

“If you just wait for the patient to cough, have a fever or have difficulty breathing, it will be easy to miss the case, the patient will go to the hospital center,” warned director Luong Ngoc Khue, noting that in the treatment, always pay attention to opening the door of clinics, treatment areas and special attention to infection control.
