A needy woman in Ho Chi Minh City receive financial aid.

According to Pham Duc Hai, deputy head of the HCM City Steering Committee for Disease Prevention and Control, the city has administered more than 5 million doses of Covid-19 vaccines. The city has established an additional 400 mobile medical stations in areas with high numbers of Covid-19 patients, providing first aid and medical care at home.

Regarding the preparation and supply of goods to people, there are two groups: the "green and yellow" and the "orange and red" groups.

There will be different support for each group. People in green and yellow areas are also divided into two groups: people who are allowed to go to the market once a week and people with difficult circumstances who will receive support packages from the welfare center.

For the orange and red areas, there are also two groups: those who can afford to go to the market once a week, and those in difficulties who will receive the welfare package, which will be delivered to their door by a special working group.

The city has provided people with nearly 3,000 shopping addresses. Along with the implementation of Resolution 86 and the Resolution of the HCM City People's Council, wards and communes in the city will provide additional support to the disadvantaged according to the provisions.

"The army will not distribute goods, but the special working group will deliver goods to the door," said Hai.

If there is a shortage of goods in any area, the city will send goods to the areas by trucks.

Regarding business activities, Hai said that enterprises would keep operating under the previous direction of the municipal People's Committee.

The city has tried its best, and has anticipated various plans and solutions. However, if there are any issues, people should immediately call the working group.
