Recent scientific researches have pointed out that around 40 percent needy medical patients have not received any treatment due to several reasons, said an official in the health sector at a Vietnam International Health Economics (HEA) Conference.
According to Ly Ngoc Kinh, former director of the Department of Health Examination and Treatment Management, the main reason is that many face financial difficulties. He said, “Approximately 42 percent of poor people received treatment in district clinics, while only 16.9 percent of wealthy patients did”.

Vietnam: Diseases break out in southern region
Saturday ,Dec 11,2010, Posted at: 16:50(GMT+7)
The number of children and the elderly infected with respiratory diseases, dengue fever and cholera has soared in Ho Chi Minh City and southern provinces.
For a short period, there was a lull in these diseases, however, lately; they have come back in force.
At the HCMC Children Hospital No.1, the respiratory department has been overwhelmed with 200-230 children a day. There are only 100 sick beds in the hospital, and several children have been treated for pneumonia, bronchitis and asthma.
In addition, the number of children hospitalsed is also on the rise, and most of them come from the Mekong Delta.
Similarly, in the HCMC Children Hospital No.2, respiratory and digestion departments are overcrowded with sick children. The hospital has treated at least 3,000 children a day, several of them suffering from respiratory and digestion diseases.
A doctor said that on average, he treats about 60 to 70 children a day, but now it is over 100 children a day.
The Pasteur Institute in the city said that since the beginning of the year, the southern region has been infected with over 64,800 patients suffering from dengue fever, with 65 people dying from this disease.
The dengue fever spread to 16 of 20 provinces and cities in the region. Furthermore, An Giang, Ben Tre, Binh Duong and Dong Thap provinces have seen an increase in the number of patient dying from the disease.
Every week in HCMC over 500 people are hospitalized due to dengue fever and that is an increase of 50 percent over the same period last year.
In addition, recently a child has died and two others hospitalized for cholera in the Binh Chanh District of HCMC.
Nguyen Dac Tho, deputy director of HCMC Preventive Medicine Center, said “that the polluted environment around accommodation areas have triggered the disease”.
To cope with the outbreak, the HCMC Department of Health has ordered relevant organizations to implement stricter health measures to prevent any more disease from spreading, especially cholera.
The department has also instructed the district authorities to warned residents about the dangers of poor food hygiene, particularly using water from contaminated sources, thereby contributing to water-born diseases.

Vietnam: Austria pigs have led to China/Poultry From China Into Vietnam
11/12/2010
Within two months ago, Mong Cai border gate on the day transit hundreds of tons of pig "escaped" to China.
Before learning about the real situation rushing pig "escaped" to China in recent times, we've visited Animal Quarantine Station, Mong Cai, Quang Ninh. Station chief Nguyen Minh Cuong all sighed shaking his head back by the way station on the day in front of trucks carrying pigs ran jam jam but agency officials had looked at each impotence. According to the station, every day there are about 40-50 trucks transporting pigs from the gathering place in Mong Cai and smuggling to China. At least 10 tons per vehicle pigs, a total of nearly 500 tonnes of sugar quota under the boat.
-snip-
Most of Binh Dinh, Thai Binh, Hung Yen ... Every day there's dozens of trips to the provinces in pigs at the collection point.
-snip-
Many concerns
There is a strange thing is that almost everyone knows the export of pigs in-quota across the border into China at the end of the year was against the rules, but violating the principle seems to be "ignored." The main responsibility of the Market Management Department, Veterinary Quang Ninh province, but the pig export quota met hardly any interference from these forces.
While pigs Austria went well in China, Mong Cai, chicken also massively smuggling contraband across the border. His strength properties that border 90 km from Tien Yen District to Mong Cai city, every night, footsteps in chickens smuggled sugar quota overflow. Estimated tens of tons per day and chicken "break" over the border and then by bus to spill into consumption. Absolutely no control or handle anything. And of course the number of smuggled chickens can not know what diseases are not.
Explain the situation has left way information flow. Was that pork exports are under quota though, hard to control it more or less beneficial as this will stimulate the livestock industry. So the export of pigs "illegal" despite being seen as contrary to principle but is tacit green light. But we also have comments concerned the massive exports to China pig like pig meat will cause shortages, especially at a time when our country bordered festival is on track to recovery after the storm flock " storm blue ear. "
In a recent meeting of the Animal Husbandry Department (MARD) has mentioned the problem of "pork exports massively." There are fears the livestock industry in the country despite an average increase of 7-8% per year but still can not meet domestic consumer demand, businesses still have to import meat. By this time, Vietnam has imported 60,000 tons of pork and poultry. From now until the end of 2010, will have to import 20,000 more tons. The Ministry has asked localities to strictly control increase the export of pigs across the border, but in the main to Nguyen Minh Cuong, the control is nearly impossible.
"Pigs are just" going "massively so, so many difficulties arise. How about supply and demand are not known but the situation is difficult because of quarantine forces too thin. Prescribed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, the local quarantine station must contain the clue. However, Quang Ninh province has not done this "- his strength fear.

Red alert as mystery disease hits Uganda
Wednesday, December 8 2010 at 22:36
Kenya is on high alert after a yet-to-be identified disease killed 35 people in Uganda.
Reports indicate that 86 people had contracted the disease.
The Director for Public Health and Sanitation, Dr Shahnaaz Sharif, on Wednesday said his office was in constant communication with Ugandan officials to monitor the outbreak.
The symptoms of the illness are headaches, fever and vomiting blood. However, Dr Sharif said that he had received word that the Ebola Haemorrhagic Fever, caused by the Ebola virus, had been ruled out.
Kitkum, which is situated about 400 kilometres north of Kampala, and three districts surrounding it, have so far been affected.
Dr Sharif was quick to add that Kenya is not at immediate risk as there are some districts between Kitkum and the Kenyan border acting as ‘buffers’.
Nonetheless, health officials are vigilant especially in Turkana District, which is at highest risk, given its proximity to the affected region.
The director issued this alert as he announced the second round of the polio emergency campaign that will run from December 11-15.
This comes after a confirmed polio case was reported in Bugiri District, Eastern Uganda, which borders the Ugandan Busia District that shares a border with Kenya’s Busia District.
The reports triggered the emergency vaccination programme, due to the high transmission rate of the virus.
The first round, which has been rated as successful as 982,881 children were vaccinated, was carried out on December 20-24, 2009 and the final leg will be from January 15-19 next year.
Its target is 1,001,785 children.

The Peace Corps were evacuated yesterday. The CDC and the US Embassy have kept quiet on anything that might be happening, their responses to emails claim that nothing is really amiss and that we shouldn’t be worried. But the fact that the Peace Corps bolted to Kampala certainly isn’t reassuring. Robbie talked to one of them who had 10 months left in country who said he thinks they might just send them home.
Another group of Muzungus got so spooked that they didn’t just leave the North they left the country entirely. They are currently biding their time in Nairobi, Kenya. Apparently they heard from a nurse who was here in 2000 (when there was a big outbreak of Ebola), that she saw one of the new cases and it was definitely Ebola. This is unconfirmed, but unsettling nonetheless.
We have already checked the prices of private hire cars and private jets (fifty bucks a head to Kampala, not bad) to Kampala just incase this blows up, but all signs are pointing to it not being a big deal. Although there is some concern that the government in Kampala will try to cover up whatever happens because of the upcoming election in February of next year. Hmm….
Evacuation
Sunday, December 5, 2010
We went the way of the Peace Corps. A few days into the much talked about plague we received a phone call from our academic advisor telling us that we were being evacuated to Kampala. Most of us were pretty upset to be leaving Gulu and our Homestay families behind, but the logic was pretty clear. We packed up all of our things and loaded them onto our trusty matatus. We were supposed to leave at 11 but naturally we left at a little before 1, AWA. We encountered the usual bus matatu break down on the way to Kampala so our four-hour journey turned into an eight-hour journey. Our driver, Tycoon the Man, also decided it would be a good idea to buy a chicken, still clucking, and set it under the back seat. I don’t know how the little guy didn’t make any noise or try to escape but it was definitely still alive.
We made it to Kampala by nightfall and returned to the trusty Bativa Hotel where we started our trip three months ago. Most of us were pretty exhausted so we passed out. The following day Dr. William, our Academic Director, gave us a briefing on the situation. Apparently there were confirmed cases of Pneumonic Plague and a strong possibility of Ebola, I’m glad we got out of there as soon as we did. It’s still upsetting to think that us Muzungus can escape so easily but we leave behind all the residents of Gulu to fend for themselves. There is nothing we can do, but it’s troubling that the actual Ugandans really have no escape. We also learned that our safari at the end of our trip has been cancelled so our trip might end earlier than expected.

Vietnam: H5N1 Is Back
Bird flu is raging in some places that many people who spread fear
From the beginning of the year the country recorded seven cases of influenza A/H5N1 virus, including two fatal cases in Tien Giang and Binh Duong. In our country, influenza A/H5N1 in humans were reported from January 12-2003 and since then has recorded scattered in many localities.
Higher risk of outbreaks every year
In three years, each year the country recorded from 5 to 8 cases of influenza A/H5N1 virus infection and the mortality rate from 70% to 100%. From 2003 to date has infected 119 people, including 60 deaths. Currently our country is still among the countries with more deaths in the world because influenza A/H5N1.
According to the evaluation of scientists, the characteristics of influenza A/H5N1 in Vietnam remains a displaced distribution of each individual case, non-beam assemblies. H5N1 flu is very complex evolution and mechanisms of disease transmission is inhalation or eating, that is when people are exposed to sick poultry, egg products, such as illness, eating poultry sick ...
Thus, the avian flu is back in a series of localities such as Nam Dinh, Nghe An, Ha Tinh will be favorable to the spread of influenza A/H5N1. Especially laboratory, Department of Animal Health (Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development) has detected a flow rate of ducks infected with bird flu in an average of 4.2% this year while poultry increased to 16%, making the risk of an outbreak would be higher than usual.
Prof. Dr. Nguyen Tran Hien, director of the Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology, despite concerns that from March to now our country is not recorded new cases of influenza A/H5N1, but this risk in outbreak People are very high.
From actual influenza A/H5N1 outbreaks occurred over the years, many scientists have warned if not timely prevent the spread of influenza A/H5N1 virus in poultry and aquatic birds are very easily lead to influenza A/H5N1 in humans.
Especially during New Year demand for trade access, transport and slaughter of poultry increased, cold and wet weather are ideal conditions for virus growth and spread to humans.
More deaths due to subjective
Dr. Nguyen Hong Ha, deputy director of Tropical Disease Hospital Central Committee, said recently to the examination of patients with flu symptoms are many but not identified any cases of influenza A/H5N1 infection.
However, experts fear that the illness is very similar to the H1N1 influenza A/H5N1 (have lung damage due to acute respiratory distress syndrome), it is difficult to distinguish. While the risk of dying of influenza A/H5N1 is very high, so the patients who need to know the history of the patient to notify the treatment facility.
Patients with or without exposure to eat meat and poultry at risk before onset is considered the basic elements to distinguish influenza A/H1N1 and A/H5N1, A/H5N1 flu patients due mainly to spread from country bird flu H1N1 infection is also spread from person to person.
Dr Nguyen Tran Hien, the system of national influenza surveillance is maintained in the locality. Through the influenza virus isolated from clinical specimens is not currently see the genetic modification of influenza A/H5N1 virus in our country.
While the evaluation of experts, most cases of death from influenza A/H5N1 are subjective family brought to health facilities late, be very severe disease events, severe lung injury, not due to toxicity of strains of influenza A/H5N1 virus was altered.
No slaughtering of poultry diseases using
Ministry of Health warned, when detecting infected poultry, slaughter and death not be used, but must immediately notify the local authorities for timely handling, no shipping and selling of poultry of unknown origin, particularly especially in areas with outbreaks in poultry, ensure cooked, boiled drinking, washing hands with soap before eating and after using the toilet.
Especially, when the symptoms of fever, cough, shortness of breath related to avian influenza, they must immediately go to the nearest medical facility to be examined and treated promptly.
