MSc.BSNT. Nguyen Thi Quynh reported at the Conference
The report presented some results obtained in the first phase of the research. Notably, most health workers had correct knowledge about COVID-19 (relating to the risk of infection, infection routes, treatment methods, symptoms, prognosis, testing) and good practices in COVID-19 prevention (limiting contact, measuring body temperature, wearing masks...). The research results are meaningful in providing the current status of medical staff's ability to respond in the fight against COVID-19, thereby providing suggestions for policies to support the right needs so that medical staff can feel secure in fighting the epidemic, contributing to accelerating the eradication of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study also provides data to develop preparedness programs for public health emergencies that may occur in the future.
