“On the first day, when I heard that this abandoned apartment building next door would be converted into a field hospital to take care of F0, I was really worried at that time. Worried that if this hospital was established right next to the apartment I live in, will it affect my life? Can I get sick from it? But then thinking about that apartment building that has been empty for many years, the facilities are not guaranteed, they – the F0 who already have a disease in their body, now have to live and receive treatment in an unfavorable environment in the early days. how. Then I heard that the residents here are supporting and asking everyone to help the fan to transfer it to the F0s, so I also want to help them out a bit, “- Ms. Linh confided.

Next, I told Ms. Chi (New City resident) that Ms. Chi had an empty space, so Ms. Chi immediately agreed. Then the two sisters implemented the plan, calling for households in New City. Unexpectedly, right after receiving the call for information, many residents supported us with items such as fans, instant noodles, drinking water, etc., so that we could move into the hospital area for patients and medical staff. doctor” – Ms. My said.
