On the morning of May 29, a member of the National Assembly (NA) made a proposal at a discussion session on mobilizing, managing and using resources for the prevention and control of the Covid-5 epidemic; the implementation of policies and laws on grassroots health and preventive medicine.
Delegate Nguyen Anh Tri (Hanoi) emphasized that Vietnam is one of the countries that have successfully controlled the Covid-19 pandemic. In particular, the vaccine diplomacy strategy is very good, very fast and very successful, there is enough, timely and immediate vaccine to vaccinate the People.
Mr. Tri quoted the assessment of the monitoring team stating: "The National Assembly appreciates the joint effort and consensus of the people and individuals and collectives who have contributed to the prevention and control of Covid. This is a great and meaningful message about the spirit of national unity, love and compassion."
Understanding this, he suggested the authorities to pay and finalize the epidemic prevention and control funding for forces, localities and units, and do a better job of praising and rewarding participating units and individuals. epidemic prevention.
"Please don't forget their contributions, the last pandemic was as fierce as a war," Mr. Tri expressed.
However, there have been serious mistakes in the prevention and control of the Covid-19 epidemic, even mistakes in the field of very few mistakes such as scientific research, acceptance, and technology transfer. Mr. Tri cited "there are spectacular tricks, sharp as knives of Viet A company organizing the production of test kits. It's painful!".
He agreed with the view that "embezzlement and corruption in epidemic prevention and control need to be dealt with strictly, but it is also necessary to consider it rationally, with love, and to be fair to those who are not self-interested, but for the sake of timeliness." anti-epidemic period for the benefit of the community". He suggested that "this should be stopped soon so that the society can stabilize and cadres can confidently perform new duties".
National Assembly member Nguyen Anh Tri hopes the Ministry of Health will pay attention to the production of test kits and vaccines, because it is very necessary for the diagnosis and prevention of many other diseases, especially emerging diseases. However, he suggested stopping research and production of Covid-19 vaccines in Vietnam because it is too late now, and instead need to find a good vaccine with a reasonable price and enough to vaccinate people. people.
Need a separate mechanism to shop for epidemic prevention and control
National Assembly member Nguyen Huu Thong (Binh Thuan) shared that the country has experienced a loss, hard and unprecedented time in the fight against the epidemic, through which the solidarity of the Vietnamese people can be seen. However, the Covid-19 epidemic also showed the greed of some people, including those in positions of power and authority, who took advantage of the loss and pain to collude to violate the regulations and get rich illegally.
Thong shared: “During the epidemic prevention and control process, the medical team and doctors have tried their best to encourage each other, do everything possible to have medicine, oxygen, biological products to save patients, for the sake of life. Human destiny is the most precious. At that time, society considered them as white-shirted heroes.
However, when the epidemic ended, through the Viet A case and related cases, the heroes in white were no longer there. And the task that takes up a lot of time and mind of doctors, nurses and managers is to prepare content to explain to the authorities.”
Regarding grassroots health and preventive medicine, Mr. Thong said that, besides the positive side, this field has not been adequately invested, not commensurate with the view that "preventive medicine is key, health care is the key to health care. the basis is the foundation", the financial mechanism is slow to innovate, the conditions for drugs and equipment are not guaranteed to perform the assigned tasks, and budget resources are still limited.
Mr. Thong suggested that the Government should continue to improve institutions, policies and laws to mobilize, allocate, manage and use resources for epidemic prevention and control. It is necessary to have a separate mechanism to carry out the procurement for epidemic prevention and control when the epidemic appears, to avoid being passive, surprised and embarrassed.
In addition, there should be instructions for concerned agencies and units to settle and pay for the procurement and borrowing of medical supplies for the fight against the epidemic. In addition, it is necessary to increase the number of staff and increase investment in equipment at the grassroots level to improve the efficiency of medical examination and treatment at health stations.
