An article updated on 18 July 2022 in the Vietnam Journal of Preventive Medicine, with Tran Chi Cuong and Tran Vu Phong among the authors, describes some Association activities in 2020 in Hanoi, Ha Tinh and Son La. Some figures differ from items already posted on vpma.vn.
Main points
- The article says the Association took part in the 2020 COVID-19 response with 154 person-visits and 56 sprayer-visits at apartment blocks and Dang Xa Primary School (Gia Lam district), Hai Boi commune (Dong Anh district) and Van Binh commune (Thuong Tin district), Hanoi.
- Members contributed supplies and funds with a total value of 50 million VND for people in central Vietnam after the October 2020 floods. The article says the Association passed this support to the Ha Tinh centre for disease control.
- In April 2020 the Association worked with the Son La centre for disease control on mosquitoes and external parasites for three schools and a Mong village in Muong Thai commune, Phu Yen district, Son La province.
- Needs the Association’s confirmation: items on vpma.vn about the COVID-19 campaign, the Ha Tinh support and the Son La work give different scale and dates. This page only retells the journal. It does not replace those items.
VPMA’s note
The source is a forum article in the Vietnam Journal of Preventive Medicine, not a new release from the Association office. Because the figures do not match items already on vpma.vn, the Association should confirm which account is the official one.
