LIGHT SPEED TESTING: A medical team inside a lockdown barricade testing multiple level contacts of patient 243 in Me Me Linh district, Hanoi City. Two ambulances are standing by outside the barricade to take any positive cases to hospital. Patient 243 is believed to have developed Coronavirus 23 days after visiting a compromised section of Bach Mai hospital.
ECONOMYNEXT – Sri Lanka is ramping up Coronavirus tests, with some persons who had been released from quarantine developing Covid-19 and others also being found in society without symptoms in a bid to clamp down on community transmission, officials said.
The entire battle against Coronavirus had been complicated by finding that patients could become positive up to 20 days after contact.
By April 08, Vietnam had conducted 106,000 tests up from 94,000 a day earlier its Health Ministry data showed, indicating that the country could now conduct 10,000 a day.
Like Sri Lanka Vietnam had been aggressively tracing contacts using the military intelligence and community support to find patients and their close contacts (F1) and the next level of contact (F2) to stop community transmission.
As soon as the patient is found, the Health Ministry publishes a contact diagram with a timeline where the patient had been asking people to come forward.
The diagram is given wide publicity in the media.
Terms like F1 (first contact), F2 (the contact of contacts) and (F3) are bywords among residents of Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, where most of the foreigners and returnees who brought the virus were resident.
Anyone in Vietnam can also log into a Health Ministry app, developed by Viettel, a state telecom company, input their symptoms and get a assessment of their condition. The app gives advice on whether to self-quarantine or go to the hospital.
The app will show the closest designated hospital with a Google map, which the person can call or get chat support. The public can also submit information about their friends or neighbors.
