Warning: 3 infectious diseases are on the rise as Tet approaches.

The changing weather combined with increased trade activity at the end of the year creates favorable conditions for the spread of pathogens, especially through the respiratory and digestive systems. The Ministry of Health reported that in December, the disease situation became more complex, with the number of dengue fever, hand, foot and mouth disease, and meningococcal meningitis cases all increasing by approximately 30% compared to the same period last year.

Warning: Three infectious diseases are on the rise as Tet (Lunar New Year) approaches.

Facing the risk of a widespread outbreak, specialized agencies are urging localities to tighten surveillance at border crossings and in communities, and to thoroughly handle outbreaks as soon as the first case is detected. The Ministry of Health advises people to proactively get vaccinated fully and on schedule. The National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology has currently received approximately 23 million doses of various vaccines, ensuring supply will be maintained until mid-2026.
