The first patient was NTTH (born in 1991, residing in Phuong Giai village). Previously, on October 9, the patient showed signs of fatigue, headache, muscle and joint pain, and bought medicine to take at home. On October 10, the patient went to Ky Anh Medical Center with the above symptoms, accompanied by a fever of 39 degrees and was tested with a positive result for Dengue NS1Ag.
Immediately after receiving information about the dengue fever case, on October 13, leaders of CDC Ha Tinh and specialized units were directly present in the area, coordinating with Ky Anh Medical Center to synchronously and urgently deploy epidemic prevention and control measures to prevent the disease from spreading widely.
CDC Ha Tinh coordinated with Ky Anh Medical Center to spray insecticide to kill adult mosquitoes in 90 households within a 200m radius of the patients' homes. At the same time, they investigated suspected cases of dengue fever.
To date, authorities have discovered three new cases of dengue fever also in Phuong Giai village, bringing the total number of dengue fever cases to four.
According to Director of CDC Ha Tinh Nguyen Chi Thanh, the Ha Tinh health sector and local authorities are focusing all their efforts on isolating the area, preventing the spread of the epidemic, and at the same time doing a good job of admitting, examining and treating patients.
